And that's somewhere where we'll just have to disagree, though at least we can agree that the program works for them.<br /><br />Maybe it's the big, fat Jew in me, but I'm really, REALLY pulling for the Zaretskis. Between their Hava Nagila original dance and their Schindler's List free program, well, they've won my heart with their choice of music before ever stepping onto the ice. I always get a bit defensive of the Schindler's List music because of what it represents, but I feel like they really brought the emotion and class required of that piece of music to their program at Skate America. <br /><br />The Zhangs...hot mess without the hot. I'd be shocked that they made it onto the podium if it weren't for the fact that the skating was, in general, just not good at this competition. <br /><br />Heartbreaker for Duhamel/Buntin. I'm wondering why she went out on the ice at all...<br /><br />Shen/Zhao's mistakes were bizarre, and I honestly hope that they don't make those mistakes when it REALLY counts. Even with mistakes, though, there's something in their skating that makes it obvious that they deserved to win. They really, truly ARE pairs skating.evilapprenticenoreply@blogger.com
