    2025-26 USFS International Assignments

    Without all the ineligible teams in play, I suspect the USFS would have split the assignments the way the did with men (Olympics for one, Worlds for the other), but since we have 2 other teams who were ineligible for Olympics but eligible for worlds, the split just worked out to a worlds alternate.

    2025-26 US Pairs Discussion - Milano-Bound By Way of Beijing & St. Louis

    I feel like we’re all having 2 conversations here. 1. We should have sent someone who could have gotten that 3rd spot and 2. Did anyone actually do enough to justify sending them in the second spot? So, the 3rd spot doesn’t matter really because no one has skated well enough this season (or last...

    2025-26 US Pairs Discussion - Milano-Bound By Way of Beijing & St. Louis

    True. But if M/P weren’t competing for the spot (by choice) and C/H had barely been training/tension/army commitments and P/F were coming back from injury and a year off, S/N winning the spot “by a lot” makes a lot more sense. Obviously this is all speculation. Or everyone was a complete...

    2025-26 US Pairs Discussion - Milano-Bound By Way of Beijing & St. Louis

    I’m actually curious. Did/would they want it? It’s a fair question. I could imagine they’d want to put energy into challengers vs OQE…

    There I go being logical again! I’ll work on that before I post next…!

    2025-26 US Pairs Discussion - Milano-Bound By Way of Beijing & St. Louis

    S/N skated terribly at the Olympic qualifier. C/H could have skated better, but they’re also wildly inconsistent and have had wonderful short programs this season and some less than good free skates. And whatever disaster this week’s short program was. And who knows what they looked like at the...

    Help for those who SNAP benefits are stopped?

    I’ve hesitated to post this because the use of food banks is always controversial… but I’m concerned how hard hit they will be and how many folks will struggle. If you don’t know, (most) food banks don’t have income requirements. They have always been a great resource for people who are...

    Tea or coffee or Soda or something else?

    I grew up drinking tea (we had a tea cabinet). Tea parties as a toddler had real tea. I drank tea most of my life. I switched over to coffee when I cut dairy (I always drank some coffee - mostly lattes - but I was a tea drinker) because I love black tea with milk. I don’t love tea with dairy...

    The tipping dilemma in the US?

    In most cases, this does not go to the guide. When I’ve provided trail rides, I’ve been paid $10-15/ride which includes all pre and post ride care (tacking, grooming, bathing, turnout, etc.). The rest goes to the owners of the barn/horses/facility. Generally, no show fees are charged (full rate...

    Thoroughbred Horse Racing 2025

    I’m not surprised at all. The Preakness doesn’t favor is running style at all anyway and knowing Mott (his non answer in the winners circle said it all…it wasn’t a “I hope so” but rather a “I don’t know” which probably would have been a “no” if he could have said so at the moment), he puts the...
