Lmao. Never change, Brennan. She just asked Jason a question about the impending CAS decision during the US Men's SP press conference. I suppose she hasn't been able to corner ChoBat yet.
She’s feeling famous today. She even posted to her IG with a caption about ‘breaking’ a storyLmao. Never change, Brennan. She just asked Jason a question about the impending CAS decision during the US Men's SP press conference. I suppose she hasn't been able to corner ChoBat yet.
I read it as "breaking news" not that she personally broke the story. YMMV.She’s feeling famous today. She even posted to her IG with a caption about ‘breaking’ a story![]()
How is this a YMMV when the literal caption on said post is ‘Just broke some news…’? Your mileage varies, I think.I read it as "breaking news" not that she personally broke the story. YMMV.
Seriously?! You lead a SERIOUSLY charmed life if this, something that has no bearing on your life, is what keeps you from functioning.I don't have to be at work until 3 pm Eastern. But I have no idea how I'll manage to concentrate.
And clearly you take things LITERALLY which should not be taken that way.Seriously?! You lead a SERIOUSLY charmed life if this, something that has no bearing on your life, is what keeps you from functioning.
Because I saw it on her Instagram stories without that caption but thanks SO MUCH for bringing that to my attention so incredibly politely and not in a condescending way at all.How is this a YMMV when the literal caption on said post is ‘Just broke some news…’? Your mileage varies, I think.

Okay, I’m sorry @tony. I just reread that and I apologize. I have some things going on and have had an incredibly hard day. I may have overreacted. Just a bit.Because I saw it on her Instagram stories without that caption but thanks SO MUCH for bringing that to my attention so incredibly politely and not in a condescending way at all.
Please campaign for a new fs-staple journalist.Lmao. Never change, Brennan. She just asked Jason a question about the impending CAS decision during the US Men's SP press conference. I suppose she hasn't been able to corner ChoBat yet.
Scores of journalists have been laid off this month from big outlets like the LA Times and what’s left of Sports Illustrated. You think anyone is looking for someone to cover figure skating when big papers are closing their Washington bureaus in an election year?I hope the US team's campaigning pays off, but IDK if anything good's going to come out of this.
It's stunning how Japan's said zero through all of this. We can pretend all we want it's some teeny tiny fed which will get attacked or whatever, but they were of no help.

You might want to explain why this is happening in PI.You think anyone is looking for someone to cover figure skating when big papers are closing their Washington bureaus in an election year?
I remember Brennan bitching about why deaf Russian girl doesn't answer questions Brennan was asking in English language.Many of you like to bitch about Brennan but she is the only one who is trying to expose abuse issues in figure skating, and for that I’m very grateful.
I’m sure you do. It was not one of her finer moments. But she’s done stellar coverage of the Valieva doping case as well as sexual abuse cases here. Not that that will improve her in your world, of course.I remember Brennan bitching about why deaf Russian girl doesn't answer questions Brennan was asking in English language.
I’m sure that Dave Lease/TSL will have the key interview with Brennan on Monday (or soon after their US Natls recap)!As the person who brought it up before in the thread, I do think Brennan should be praised for her coverage of sexual abuse in the sport.
Oh, hell, no. Brennan will be on CNN talking about the verdict before she's on TSL, just like she was during the Olympics.I’m sure that Dave Lease/TSL will have the key interview with Brennan on Monday (or soon after their US Natls recap)!
But you know that they’ll get her on TSL soon…along with Hersh and Maya.Oh, hell, no. Brennan will be on CNN talking about the verdict before she's on TSL, just like she was during the Olympics.
Oh, for sure. She just won't be on TSL first after the verdict comes down. She'll be on CNN and other major networks before she goes on TSL later in the week.But you know that they’ll get her on TSL soon…along with Hersh and Maya.
Eh... I don't want it to be leaked early - that would mean today or tomorrow and I'd rather be focused on US Nats the next two days.I hope some info leaks early I need to know how bitter I'm going to be through 4ccs
She’ll be camping out at CNN and NBC on Monday morning, about the time that the TODAY Show interviews the Nationals winners…at about 8:00 AM EST on Monday morning, I bet.Oh, for sure. She just won't be on TSL first after the verdict comes down. She'll be on CNN and other major networks before she goes on TSL later in the week.![]()
I can’t imagine how the Lowest Expectation Possible could happen.So if I approach this announcement with the lowest expectations possible, do you think I will be less disappointed if this goes the way I think it will?
Nope. We're all still going to be beyond pissed at whatever mental hoops CAS has gone through to give her a mere slap on the wrist, if that.So if I approach this announcement with the lowest expectations possible, do you think I will be less disappointed if this goes the way I think it will?
I've been very disappointed in the Japanese fed during this whole saga. Leaving the US to fight this alone has just allowed Russia to take free shot after free shot about the West and Americans and blah blah. Japan coming in and joining the US in this argument would have strengthened their position.It's stunning how Japan's said zero through all of this.

You would think especially with Vincent even having a Japanese coach and sponsor they would do something, but apparently not.I've been very disappointed in the Japanese fed during this whole saga.
