#TeamTrainwreck 15: His hair didn't have stamina, so why should his athletes?

But I better rethink my strategy of a Schott/Stasia avatar mix next week (for @Ka3sha 's sake )

Don't you dare

Re Canadian Nationals:
Am so happy for Alaine
And the dance event was very pleasant, what a lovely top-three! Worlds will be interesting for sure , and I don't even know for whom to root...

Sometimes it's best not to have a heavily invested favorite and just enjoy the outcome. I couldn't watch Sav/Mass free skate at the Os because I couldn't stand the thought they would lose. Everything is much easier this season. And more fun. I'll be cheering like a maniac if Brezina and Kovtun get on the podium and if ThatStasiagirl does. And promise to never, ever say anything snarky about her again. Or at least until next season.

- Romsky: The program is stunning, one of the best edited programs I can recall (teh best since Liebers' Schindler's List), great costume. Whilst I adore the big balls going for the hard stuff I am not sure if his team should rethink their strategy; playing somehow safe could get him on some team

He's already on a team -- the Team that counts!

OMG you didn’t watch Savchenko/Massot’s Olympic FS live? COWARD!

(I suffered through both programs, and yes I started crying when she landed that last throw jump).

@alchemy void you must take responsibility for the Daša-avatar!

No, I did not. I saw her get bronze twice. I couldn't watch a third time. You forget, many of us were watching skating while you were still nursing. Or before.

 

[Mad for Skating]

No, I did not. I saw her get bronze twice. I couldn't watch a third time.

I feel your pain. Lucky for me, I didn’t get on the bandwagon until 2016 (although omgggggg I loved that Pink Panther program)

I appreciate her sense of humor .
Cheeky girl, that one

I deny taking responsibility for this!

In all honesty, after Alaine won, someone was going to have to take on her usual share of the carrot quota.

Since Roman has the same coaches, he turned out to be that person. His protocol is a total carrot cake. (Probably deserved, but this is just my theory).

Since Alaine won though, I am still in a good mood. And we get Elvis at 4CCs!

Maybe Roman will have some carrot themed humor on his next youtube video

Done! Now that Tuk and Karly are out, I will definitely be most nervous during her skates at Euros.

Go Dasa!

 

[rfisher]

I'm feeling pressure to get a Brezina or Kovtun avatar. Stop pressuring me! I can't take any more responsibility. Or, maybe, just maybe, I should get one of ThatStasiaGirl to show my solidarity.

 

[Mad for Skating]

@alchemy void your new avatar is stunning

Canadian Men Recap:

Kovler: interesting. Has potential
Phan: way too insecure on the ice
Guay: I admire those guys who have no chance at all but keep continuing.
Lawrence: Cutiee little thing.
Orzel: So pretty. he fought good for him but needs more confidence.
Toman: Has his own style.
Gogolev: The commentary was so over the top licking his tiny butt that it turned me off. When are they gonna learn to not overhype jumping beans?
Nadeau: So fricking hot but dam he's not the relaxed laid back guy anymore. That DM program screams for cool attitude but he just gives silly contrived moves.
Sadovsky: ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Nguyen: That la la land is a nice vehicle, happy he got the title back but Im so tired of his mamas boy programs.
Messing: I skipped to the end to see the scores only

Best-Dressed: Lawrence SP
Do-Hard: Nadeu all night long to the rhythm of Personal Jesus & I Feel You.

Stop it! Stasia and Schott will be served by me. You can have Weinzierl!

There are entirely too many ways to read that.

I got Brezina covered. I’m really pulling for Brezinagold this week in Minsk! Believe!

As if it was that easy
I have exactly one favorite in each discipline at this year's Euros, but the Pairs comp will be the most nervous one , as I really want one specific young Russian team to medal

 

[Lanie]

How can you not be invested in your favorites? THIS IS SKATING!

 

[rfisher]

How can you not be invested in your favorites? THIS IS SKATING!

Favorites: Brezina and Kovtun: will they medal or implode: 50/50 maybe 40/60
Ladies: Zagitova and Sofia 2: Probably should medal, but.......
Dance: No particular favorite.
Pairs: I'd really, really like Tar/Mor to win, but am resigned it will probably be James/Cipres
Being fans of skaters on #TTW teaches you not to get too excited because the odds are greater your favorite won't win and probably won't medal at all. So, I just sit back and hope for entertainment at this point.

Among the US skaters, I hope to see Chock/Bates on the podium. Otherwise, I have no real investment in any of them.

 

[Jeschke]

See, there comes the positive thing being a Schott fan: you can watch the big champs without being nervous as hell if she makes the podium or not

 

[Vagabond]

Favorites: Brezina and Kovtun: will they medal or implode

Why can't they do both? It's what Pogo would do!
