#TeamTrainwreck 17: Just don't screw up like you always do!

[rfisher]

Now, if Pressman with his persnickety rule ways would take a nap, we could get a whole new slate of skaters on the train. Not that that sort of thing has ever happened before. Vice can be bought, er, influenced. Reasoned with. Is a sweet softhearted guy.

I need to do this before Bossman slashes all my favorites from the team.

@Jeschke enjoy your vacay!

I've never watched Eurovision before! I just read allezfred's post and feel like I may enjoy it.

OMG, it should be RIGHT up your alley!! Give it a go! So much kitsch, so over the top, terrible but also brilliant songs not to mention the crazy stage shows! One year they had Plushy himself skating on a square of ice while a ballerina appeared from inside a grand piano. Crazy stuff! There's really a whole culture built around it.

Helps with the skating withdrawal too as we usually have a PBP thread.

 

[rfisher]

And quite a few Eurovision songs make their way to OES skaters programs.

 

[skatingguy]

We'll be good.

Promise.

I leave the forum for a few days and everyone goes and has a birthday! Sorry I missed in the fun - lots of tests for school this week.

I share a birthday with Adam Rippon and I think it’s pretty cool because we’re both sassy gay divas with fabulous eyebrows.

@SmallFairy you truly look stunning on the podium! Congratulations on your medal.

What`s next? Bossman's taste in men is the best?

Mad for Skating’s way of picking the most doomed skaters to cheer for is the best!

 

[Mad for Skating]

Okay now...when the Bossman’s away, the mice will play. Who do we nominate for TTW? I vote for Efimova/Korovin, Kayne/O’Shea, and Ryom/Kim to balance out the pairs.

Over mine and Bossman's dead body do Kayne and O'shea end up on TTW. Charlie White will Choreograph them to be world champion's this season. They will make all the other pairs Les Miserables with their victory .

I appreciate your enthusiasm! But if they don’t, they’re going straight to The Train!

Way too successful and consistent. They're OUT!!!!!

Kayne/O’Shea

Over mine and Bossman's dead body do Kayne and O'shea end up on TTW. Charlie White will Choreograph them to be world champion's this season. They will make all the other pairs Les Miserables with their victory .

We do not want to kill off da bossman. They're OUT!!!!!

Ryom/Kim

Do they meet any of the Criteria or have any of the Qualities? :crickets: They're OUT!!!!!

It might help your cause next time if you explain the basis of your nominations, otherwise, they will most likely be rejected on a summary basis.

 

[Mad for Skating]

@Vagabond I see it’s useless to argue with you.

Ah well, back to my campaign for Susie. After all, medals from old partnerships don’t count.

 

[alchemy void]

I vote for Efimova/Korovin, Kayne/O’Shea, and Ryom/Kim to balance out the pairs.

Oh my.

Is @Mad for Skating the new @pinky166?

 

[Mad for Skating]

Pairs deserve representation, honey. Savchenko didn’t chase a gold medal for 16 years for TTW to ignore pairs like this.

 

[alchemy void]

I actually like all 3 of those pairs to varying degrees, but #TTW, they are not. At least at this point in time. Maybe next season.

Please don't make me resort to a bitchy, dramatic, and emoji-filled response (the @Jeschke method).

Okay, okay, moving on I can take a hint!

I am so nominating Samarin for the kibosh list. That's assuming the rest of the Russian team allow him to live after the WTT winnings are distributed.

Samarin isn't on the team that really matters: Team Trainwreck. So no kibosh for him!

That said, Daddy will not be pleased with that skate.

That KnC looked like a funeral instead of a cheering section. Talk about taking the laughter away. They all saw $$$ disappearing before their eyes.

Then they need to get their vision checked.

The current Top Four in the standings are:

USA 50
Japan 48
Russia 38
France 27

Samarin would have needed to finished third in order for Russia to be ahead of Japan at this point, and that would have required at least one meltdown from Chen, Zhou, or Uno even if Samarin had had the skate of his life. Conversely, Samarin's SP hasn't put the bronze medal within reach of one of the lower-ranked teams.

He should totally be on the train! He has so much raw talent but always seems to let it slip away - he reminds me of Kovtun, but less dramatic haha.

Tsss, he has to break our hearts to be worth a TTW member. And I can tell you, my heart also gets bored like the rest of me when he skates. Greatest boreman is not by chance his name here

Eys.
Moving on to someone who is a worthy member of the Team, I give you Cave In!

WTT 2019 FS Not -POTS material, just good old
MESS material @Jeschke

Kiss and Cry with strange goings-on from Cave In, Vanessa James, and Echo

ETA: Dang! That video is now geoblocked in the U.S.A.

Echo was rocking the KnC. She was doing the hula at one point.

Yes, she was the STAR of the K&C!!!!!!!!! Love her! But I´m also grateful that she´ll never be a member of TTW. My heart wouldn´t survive!!!
But I´m all for Cave In for TTW!

He's already there. He was in from the first sobbing KnC as a junior. Way before he was "cool."

But, while Echo will never be on TTW, she's so awesome she deserves her own special category. The drunk karaoke at the Euros banquet elevated her to star quality. I love her.

That´s true! She´s a gem! I love her more than one can imagine. And Narcissus, too... So I´m glad they´re not in the near of TTW. But I like the ideo of Echo as the cheerleader of TTW

 

[sharsk8s]

would this be a new category of TTW?

 

[SmallFairy]

Omg that’s awesome! I love her to death too, she’s so fab in every way. ( And her man too) Cheerleader Echo! #ttw

 

[SmallFairy]

I bet Daddy never saw this one coming
