    Figure Skating Baby News!

    If the parent put their child's pictures on the net, it's not reasonable to chastise others for reposting them.

    Maia Shibutani Surgery

    When did Maia's diagnosis become a Bradie T Cheer Thread? In point of fact all I did was mention our experience in real life with Bradie in a truthful manner in passing, while saying a nice thing hoping for Maia. But shoot me now.

    I am not ASSUMING anything. This was our experience. I was there. Were you there? I think not.

    "Should have just stuck to saying nice things about Maia and left it at that". I did NOT trash Bradie. I just told you what our experience has been with this skater in response TO YOU. Just checking ladies, this IS a figure skating forum where we discuss figure skaters right?

    Maia Shibutani Surgery

    Wow, didnt realize we had posting rules about stuff like that on this forum. Is there a sticky somewhere? PerkyShaeLynn, It's fairly rude for you to tell another poster to think before they post. And Theatergirl1122, as you can see I was replying to the prior post. Whatever. I'll say it again...

    Maia Shibutani Surgery

    ^ Oh we said hi. She didn't want to do the meet and greet and pictures with the group number skaters. Jason Brown, on the other hand, was happy to stand and take pictures with anyone, not just the skaters in the show. In fact, years ago we ran into him at the airport after Skate America and he...

    Maia Shibutani Surgery

    She's a lovely person when you meet her. My kid did the SOI group number the last two years. There are some people (Maia, Jason B) who are SOOO nice and others that are stuck up and cold (I'm looking at you Bradie Tennell). I hope all the best for her recovery.

    Richard Callaghan banned by the Center for SafeSport

    There is a Russian coach at our rink who trains with a hard guard in his hand. He has been banned by USFS, but is still allowed to teach at our rink. The owner is all about $ so he lets him continue to train there. His wife and training partner is the official coach. It amazes me that the...

    Dick Button’s personal skating collection up for auction

    Lacey, I am lucky enough to be a neighbor and the local Skating Club President. He was kind to me from the begining all these years ago now. And I say again, he has the MOST divine garden open once a year in September. If you are near by, it's well worth the drive and has many little skating...

    Dick Button’s personal skating collection up for auction

    He's not selling the apartment, just the collection. Dick offered the entire collection to USFSA and to Harvard, but they don't have room for it. To give you a sense of the scope, he described to me how in 1972 he had bought Ice Pond Farm by us in North Salem and also bought the apartment, which...
