I don't know if I would call it selfishness. We're fans of figure skating, of course we want competitions to happen. And it's the ISU who's giving us hope by leaving it open (for now) by saying they "will evaluate a possible postponement to hold the Event at the end of the season and will take a...
To quote another poster here, I hope you see the irony in that.
You have no way of knowing how I'm actually feeling while I'm responding on this forum. But go off. :) I'm not gonna argue anymore, I usually don't even post on this forum. Even though I read a lot and it's been years since I've...
Yes I do, it does not make my point of view incorrect though, at most it could make me into a hypocrite, but I stand by what I said. Some skaters would not want to go to GPF (I agree) in April, but some would like to have that opportunity as alternates. But there are "know it all experts" on the...
I'm not talking qualified, I'm talking alternates. You can't be sure what skaters want. Someone like Morisi may want to go to GPF in April, as an example, but you can't convince "know it alls" so I'll leave it at that. :)
Well, if they don't want to participate, it's their decision. That's why you have alternates. It's not fair to not hold it because someone like Chen or Uno want a break or in women, dance or pairs, you name it. They can go down the highest points list and hold it. Those skaters earned their...
Jason has the international scores, if he does not do well one time, USFSF will have all the other scores and results to justify sending him to the Olympics. Plenty of reason. Even if another skater reaches group 3, Jason will still be the highest in that particular group based on consistency...
Following the same logic,
(or Nathan for that matter)
Nathan has scored 269 at Skate America (his homeland GP where supposedly he'd get inflated scores only for being American), a score a CLEAN Jason could easily beat nationally and internationally. (and a clean Vincent and a squeaky clean Ilia...
Their "what ifs" are starting to have less and less to do with reality. We're talking about THE Jason Brown and people expect the USFSF to go with skaters who internationally score, what, maybe 20 points less on a good day than Jason on a bad day? Hilarious and almost lacking in respect for a...
In 2019 he did the same. It's in case he doesn't make it. I remember Dimitri Aliev was on the Golden Spin list as well in 2019 and he qualified for GPF that year and went there instead. Typical plan B.
If he wins at least bronze
and Semenenko gets bronze or less at Rostelecom, he's qualified.
Even if Semenenko is second, it would be down to combined scores, still a chance.
If Semenenko gets gold and Kolyada bronze then it's between Jason's and Kolyada's scores, less of a chance.
If Yuzuru...
No, the "third man" is not there for the Olympic experience, they all are. 1st, 2nd and 3rd. Whoever the 3rd man will be after Nationals he will go to be as high as possible in the top 10 at the Olympics. Everything can happen, it's not set in stone. The third man will also be there to skate in...
Watch 2020 US Nationals and 2020 4CC. That was his peak since training at TCC and the jumps minus the quad looked really good. Now he still has an injury.
