Members lovely_m Posted January 31, 2011 Members Share Posted January 31, 2011 Did anyone else watch the nationals? Such a disappointing event for some of the favorites. I was hoping that Mirai would win and go to worlds but it was not to happen. I know most think Alissa's no longer the choker she was but I think she'll bomb at worlds. At least her nationals win was deserved this time. It's sad about Caroline Zhang. She was suppose to be the heir apparent to American ladies skating. The same could not be said for Ryan Bradley. He really should not have won the title. It's a shame that Jeremy Abbott, Brandon Mroz, and Adam Rippon couldn't make it on the podium. Both Dornbush and Miner have good careers ahead of them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members jcar03 Posted February 5, 2011 Members Share Posted February 5, 2011 I laughed when the announcer was all Alissa is here to stay. She has been so back and forth that one good season doesn't mean she will be good next year. Especially when some of the top skaters didn't compete in the ISU Grand Prix series. I hope she does well at world's but I'm not holding my breath. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DAMfan Posted February 6, 2011 Author Members Share Posted February 6, 2011 It is almost hard to believe 2/15/2011 - will be 50 years since the entire 1961 U.S. team was killed in that crash. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
