On a positive note, I liked PJ's tweet about their programs.

I like this comments too. Look like PJ was impressed by T-S SD
And i hope we will see them at GP and all will be OK.

I think I can breathe a little better now... I'm glad they're cautious. As good as it would have been to receive feed-back early in the season, it's better not to aggravate a minor injury which, hopefully, will be gone until Skate Canada.

That's nice, can't wait to see them. Sigh, looks like I'll have to start another countdown.

It's a good thing they're not into surfing the internet, then.

Seriously now, and I've said it before, we need thicker skin. It's only gonna get worse. But as long as they're healthy and competing, I'm happy.

I'm still so in shock, I think everyone here knew how excited I was for this weekend. But I'm just glad it's only a minor injury. I couldn't help wondering if maybe it's that lift they do where Tessa swings around Scott's neck that might have caused the problem.

Pani that link doesn't work either, I'll try http://www.skatecanada.ca/AboutUs/NewsDetails/tabid/2157/sni[2797]/2006/language/en-US/Default.aspx

I was worried about his neck when I saw him do that lift where I think I recall he rotates her and/or her leg around his neck and you can just see his neck get hit. They do that repeatedly and it is only a matter of time before his neck (and maybe head or shoulder) pays the price. I was surprised that nobody on his team was worried about that but maybe they only work with the young and don't see the effects on the middle aged and older adults?
I hope it's true it is just a minor strain....however if it is so minor the physio should be able to get it loosened up enough to compete. Maybe they tried that and it didn't work out. Too bad about all of this. I hope he doesn't end up needing a surgery down the road!

I could understand, if people, who went to Finland to see them could be angry, but why D-W care about this withdraw so much? They must be happy with Scott injury

The only person who said D-W care about this withdraw is you.

Do you mean D&W fans? Because I don't see anything from D&W that says they care about V&Ms withdrawal. Now D&W fans on the other hand.....

Pani, you generalize and twist opinions and then ignore people who call you out on it. I only read ONE comment from someone doubting Scott's injury and it wasn't neither Davis nor White, and it wasn't even a D-W fan. You start the most absurd fan wars, I swear. Let them be, who cares what they say or don't say? Only you it seems.

[Emdee]

I strongly suspect that Pani's alter ego is not really her but some mischief maker.

That was intense. I wonder who the lady that yelled stop was. Also I think that was Tessa laughing/talking at the end.

Thanks Macassar88. I had not seen that vid. As always, they are very positive.

[l'etoile]

Another thanks from me, Macassar88! I especially love their mindset towards setting goals, very specific, clarified goals!

Their faces changes a bit with grave sentiment when talking about life after "March, 2014." It gave me jitters.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tp29r...e_gdata_player this is a preview of CappLanotte's Carmen. i would define it 'classic', a 19th century, operatic Carmen. i think Operatic style is their strenght. they're Italian, after all. maybe Carmen has to be skated very 'big', though. the program is nice to watch, but imo the subject matter requires something that keeps you on the edge of your seat. we'll see how the 20th century Carmen looks like!
