Olympics: Ladies short program
Okay, my thoughts on the top six ladies tonight. Warning, if you're a Rachael Flatt fan? You won't like what I have to say about her. Just lettin' you know.

It really did just get to me. :( I feel so much for her.
yeah, it was so emotionally charged that I don't think I can think critically
Right, I just can't. She had lovely lines and artistry, and skated well, but I was so struck by her grace under this situation that I just can't think critically.
You're once again right in line with my brain, though--Flatt was BORING, and I thought Nagasu skated beautifully, and deserved better than sixth.
YES!!
Didn't the men's program teach us that technical skating isn't everything??
The technique is super-important. I get that and I do agree with it; I just wish that the artistry had as much importance. If not in this round, then in the free skate. But it doesn't; it's all about the damn technical and MOSTLY the damn jumps!
I didn't like Ando, either. Kim Yu-Na, while not my number one either, definitely deserves her spot at the top (like you said, with her, I UNDERSTAND why she was higher).
Yeah. Kim Yu-Na is just beautiful. I dunno, I might have actually appreciated her more had I not expected the second coming in figure skating, LOL! She was SO hyped up for me, but she *is* excellent. Ando? Not for me.
It'll be an interesting long program, to say the least, with Rochette in contention!
Yup. I agree.
