I've loved Ryan Bradley for ages. :) On the one hand, I'm sad for him that he didn't make it. On the other hand, if he'd made the team, it's really unlikely he would've been a contender in Vancouver. He's never been consistent enough. So I can't feel too badly that it's Evan, Johnny, and Jeremy going. Doubt he'll stick around past this year as he's 26 already. :-/

By "The Future of Mens' Figure Skating," do you mean Adam Rippon? Because...yawn, really.

I had hoped for better from Evan (and I do not understand his shoulder...cage...thingies. I DON'T CARE if Vera Wang designed them, that doesn't mean they're good!) But then again, last year he came up short at Nats and peaked at Worlds, so who knows. Mens's is either wide open, or a race for silver, depending on what shape Plushenko's in.

Johnny: Gay male ballet dancers are laughing at your outfits. Stop letting Oksana dress you in her castoffs. And thank you for emoting, but could you maybe try to find something that isn't so depressing to emote to? And notice there's a crowd waiting for you to skate, not watch you stand there looking scared while Galina babbles at you in Russian?

Jeremey: You're a good skater. I just wish you weren't so bland. Please to be taking showmanship lessons from Ryan Bradley. Please find the happy medium between Todd Elderidge and Johnny Weir.
