Doug Razzano will replace him at SA

**Jenna** · 10-14-2011, 10:38 PM

Surprise, surprise...

Good opportunity for Doug.

**MikiAndoFan#1** · 10-14-2011, 10:38 PM

What a surprise.

**Beefcake** · 10-14-2011, 10:46 PM

Yes, simply shocking.

Good for Razzano!

Strong showing in a so-called "B" earns him an "A".

**oleada** · 10-14-2011, 10:52 PM

Of course he isn't.

**Japanfan** · 10-14-2011, 10:54 PM

The announcement came right on time and as expected.

The link doesn't take me to the story, though.

**DaveRocks** · 10-14-2011, 11:01 PM

Did he ever have *any* intention?

**BigB08822** · 10-14-2011, 11:09 PM

Now, he needs to not show up at Nationals. I have a lot of money riding on that.

I think it's 50/50.

Great for Razzano. Got my attention in 2010 by doing quads in both SP and LP and then this year with the top 6 finish in the SP. Good for him!

I think Evan intended to compete in the GP. However, given the fact that he was sporting a left leg brace in mid-September, it is not surprising that he WD.

The EL and FC are saying a lot of nothing ... But will he be in France next month?

**Ziggy** · 10-15-2011, 12:17 AM

SHOCKING!

Who would have thought?!!!

**kittyjake5** · 10-15-2011, 12:23 AM

Darn, I was looking forward to seeing him skate competitively again. According to Phil's article he quotes Carroll as saying that Evan is not injured and then he
gives some kind of mumbo jumbo reason regarding the Federation. What is that supposed to mean.

The statement on the U.S. Figure Skating website stated that Lysacek withdrew from both SA and TEB.

Great for Razzano, though I'm curious why Messing isn't the first alternate. Is it because he's already assigned to a competition the following week? But then I assume skaters know there's a great possibility the next in line will be competing at SA so perhaps Messing knew he'd not be competing at SA?

**manleywoman** · 10-15-2011, 12:29 AM

Financial issues. Hmmmm.

**ChelleC** · 10-15-2011, 12:37 AM

Quite interesting reasoning. Not shocked he's not doing the GP though.

**Carolla5501** · 10-15-2011, 01:00 AM

Well he waited long enough to tell us LOL!
