Thank you - yes, it looks like it was taken down and then put back up for me too, so it must have been a technical error. I got through all of it just before midnight but had a few programs I wanted to re-watch so I'm glad it is back. I'm also glad we don't have to worry about some events...

And indeed, the Women's Short Program is now gone from Peacock. I wonder if it was a technical issue (i.e., someone in a control room entered Save for 1 Day instead of 3 Days) or a music rights issue. If it was a music rights issue, I wish they could have just muted the broadcast for those 3...

Heads up - not sure if it is accurate or why this would be the case, but my Peacock is saying today's Worlds Women's Short replay is only available for 1 day - i.e., it expires tonight at midnight Eastern.

It depends how good of seats you want. The first few rows / center sections may sell out quickly but there will likely be other seats available until very close to the event. It may not sell out - I saw this arena seats ~8000 which is slightly larger than other recent Skate America arenas...

I think it is foolish for USFS to put tickets for Nationals and Skate America on sale on the same day given how many problems they have had in the past effectively managing ticket sales for their events. Plus some people who might want to do both may hesitate to spend that much money all on the...

Thanks - I had forgotten about her Toyota endorsement and mistakenly thought I saw something saying her Dad was unhappy she didn't do Stars on Ice in 2022. So, it does seem feasible that she could have saved her earnings from 2022 Worlds Bronze and other prize money, endorsement earnings, and...

I'm so happy for Alysa and it's wonderful to see how much mainstream media coverage there has been of her, her story, and figure skating in general. I have a question and I wonder if this will come up in any of her interviews or if any of you may have insights on this based on your own...

That's the first I've seen of Alysa directly saying she may not go to Worlds. If she chooses not to go, I hope she decides soon so the first alternate (which I think is Bradie) has plenty of time to prepare.

I remember that Gracie used to talk about hanging out and baking cookies with Taylor Swift. Maybe she became a fan?

Nathan also performed poorly in his first Olympics

The other side though is thank goodness the US did what was needed to get the Team Gold. Some of them had a chance to get an individual medal, some did not, but now all of them and the country has an Olympic gold medal. 1000% agree the Team Event should come after the individual events. I...

This is why it's asinine that USFS did not send Ilia in 2022. Same thing happened to Nathan Chen. They never learn.

I wonder if we eventually wind up in a situation where there are like 50,000 songs that have been approved and skaters need to choose among those songs. They can choose multiple songs / edit them together, etc but there is a universe of pre-approved songs to pick from.

I wonder if this is related to the various music copyright issues (including Loena and now Amber)

That's ridiculous. There really should be a requirement that there is at least 1 day in between the last day of the Team Event and the first day of individual competition. Even though Ice Dancers didn't compete today, they were still obviously heavily engaged in today's event from both a time...
