I just think that some personal needs and issues are not always compatible with high stake competitive sports in the long run. How do you get the time to mature, deal with life and figure things out when it is indefinitely placed on the back burner. I believe that Gabriella and Guillaume got...

Thank you for sharing the article@caseyedwards. I was always ambivalent about the Skating Lesson, most of all whenever Dave went on one of his catty tangents, but I also learned quite a bit listening to his podcast. So, a mixed bag for me but I admire the personal engagement to get more people...

I would love that too! I must also say that I am floored by the level of gratuitous slander floating around in some comments.

I've never felt that way...

C/P?

I would take everything Carol Lane says with a huge grain of salt: she is far from partial (memories from the last Olympic cycle where she was a master of double-edge compliments). I used to love G/P but in their previous iteration, where they were really fun, quirky, innovative. A real fresh...

Gabi's ankle was wrapped and she was in a lot of pain.

I believe that they didn't consistently compete at Junior world but they were an experienced team.Yes, there was a buzz as they won silver at Junior world before moving up to Senior (Romain Haguenauer tells the story somewhere). P/C's presentation improved when they started working in Montreal.

Parmentier de canard is a great Fall or Winter dish! recipe

Lopareva/Brissaud L/B's RD filmed by On Ice Perspective

I really love L/B's RD!

Gaby might have been hurt or let down by people she trusted but I do not believe that she is out for 'revenge'. She has been dealing with mental health issues compounded by the demanding life of a top athlete for years. I do not think that she had time to take care of herself. She is taking the...

I like Harris/Chan's FD ... a bit flat at times but very light and a lot of synchronicity. I think it has potential. Reed/Amb could become great but I not a fan of the music and the FD came across as long which is never a great sign.
