I made my decision based upon which thread title suggestion had the most likes. Yours was not well-received. It was a close race between "I'm Still Standing" with 8 likes/loves and "Quad God and the Mere Mortals" with 9 likes/loves.

I would have loved "2 is the new 3" for a Pairs thread title.

Well, you know me, my suggestions and posts always have to have hints of humor. For without humor, I’d rather not be on earth. Lol

Figure skating meets rhythmic gymnastics.

It's the Jacob Banks version of "Say Something," which is a stronger and bolder version.

Jason included a short clip:

Brown has a remarkable ability to fully extend and commit to choreography, even very early in the season. I hope that after he retires as a competitive skater that he works to teach younger skaters how to do that.
