https://community.qvc.com/t5/Community-Chat/Ladies-Figure-Skating-Short-Program-on-at-10AM-WILL-CONTAIN/m-p/589130#M243214 <P>I hosted 5 of my friends for a skating brunch. All but one of us are skating fanatics but she knew there would be mimosas and lots of chocolate.</P> <P>Some of our observations:</P> <P>Mao Asada was splendid.</P> <P>Either Akiko Suziki was overscored or Polina Edmunds was underscored. Their placement should have been switched.</P> <P>Carolina Kostner had the Olympics she has dreamed about since before Torino. (I first saw her at the Worlds in 2003. Even then she skated with such power and was doing triple-triple) She is both graceful and athletic.</P> <P>We were surprised Yuna Kim did not have more technical content. She and her coaches had to know the Russians would be "bringing it" in the technical department. She gave that long program away. No one glides across the ice like she does</P> <P>Ashley Wagner had the most unattractive dress in the entire competition. She has said repeatedly that she can do a triple-triple yet in every competition she under-rotates, 2 foots, or leaves it out. </P> <P>Gracie and Polina are the future of US skating. (hear that Ashley)</P> <P>If you do not understand the new scoring system, more than likely you would have awarded the gold medal to a different skater. Our friend who is not a fan, did not understand how someone who falls can end up higher than someone who skates a cleaner program. She chose Yuna and Carolina for gold and silver.</P> <P>Tara, Johnny and Terry were great.</P> Fri, 21 Feb 2014 00:26:14 GMT lulu2 2014-02-21T00:26:14Z https://community.qvc.com/t5/Community-Chat/Ladies-Figure-Skating-Short-Program-on-at-10AM-WILL-CONTAIN/m-p/588643#M242911 <P>NBCSN is broadcasting the ladies short program today at 10AM "Live". They'll have the highlights tonight on at primetime. Anyone care to watch with me, I'll be here. For obvious reasons this thread will contain spoilers about how each of the ladies does. So if you'd rather watch tonight at primetime, avoid this thread.

She was the most graceful, beautiful skater I ever saw. And she wore flowing outfits, very dreamy and lovely which started a trend I believe. She did commentaries with Scott Hamilton for a while. Just wondering.</P> Wed, 19 Feb 2014 15:21:48 GMT https://community.qvc.com/t5/Community-Chat/Ladies-Figure-Skating-Short-Program-on-at-10AM-WILL-CONTAIN/m-p/588686#M242942 Judaline 2014-02-19T15:21:48Z https://community.qvc.com/t5/Community-Chat/Ladies-Figure-Skating-Short-Program-on-at-10AM-WILL-CONTAIN/m-p/588690#M242944 <P>I'm not sure what happened to Peggy Fleming.
