I think this year is still the most open in a long time, so if that is what you hope for you should be excited, unless you are disappointed one of your favorites isn't the more likely winner. Weaver & Poje will probably win, and I think they will, but it is no sure thing. They will have to work for it and skate very well, as 2 or 3 teams atleast are still real threats to them. They had to work hard to win 4CC's, and their GPF win was only easy since the other teams were so bad there. There are atleast 3 teams who could win, and 6 or 7 who could medal. Havent had that in a long time.
Last 2 years were the bore. Davis & White were pretty much certain to win each time, much more than W&P are likely to win this year. Their so called rivalry with V&M had become a hoax, D&W had about a 2 fall cushion in the judges eyes by then, despite many observers still believing V&M were the better team.
