  1. Also, I'm never spending money on parking again. Just calculated how much $$ I could save in 871 days if I put my daily parking fees into it, and yes, I can afford Yuzu in Beijing.
  2. It's definitely not too soon to start saving money for Beijing!
  3. You're asking the wrong crowd! We're more likely to cheer you on.
  4. Maybe you can panic in advance and get it out of the way before then!
  5. From his mouth to God's ears! May it be so. Also, he's lived in Canada for eight years and suddenly he's picking up Trudeau-isms... "Just watch me", eh?
  6. I know, right?
  7. Ghana needs to make a maple-flavored chocolate for those little dispensers.
  8. I can forgive the ignorance about the rest of the guys, but to leave their country's actual results out of the article...! It makes the accusations about 'fake news' look factual.
  9. ...so I just tweeted at NBC not to ignore Camden. It's not that I'm a Camden fan, but when they're frothing at the mouth to attack Yuzu so anxiously that they skip mentioning their own athlete, there's something wrong. I could do a better job than that, and I'm nothing but a STEM geek and not a journalist at all. And it's so unfair to Camden, who really had a great performance for his first time out in Seniors.
  10. Not only that, their comment of "no other top ten finishers from Worlds" betrays a massive lack of understanding of the men's field in figure skating right now. Keegan and Jun, as well as Kevin, are both fully capable of being top ten on any given day. The writer of that article didn't even have the grace to mention Camden's result, even though he was the only American actually in ACI and therefore the only one relevant to this article. As I said, horrible journalism and their editor should not have let this go online without heavy revision.
  11. Maybe Nathan has, but NBC certainly hasn't. This is the way they write about all their sports. No wonder so many American athletes drop out at the height of their careers. It's effing irresponsible journalism, is what it is.
  12. Subtle? There's nothing subtle about it! Whoever wrote that knows nothing about journalistic objectivity. They even drag Nathan Chen's name into the bloody title!!!
  13. The way that's written - ' he is strongly convinced that the complete form of Origin is with 4A' - sounds a lot like Yuzu is an artist giving birth to a masterpiece, instead of an athlete. It reminds me of the famous quote from Michelangelo about setting the angel free from the block of marble. I wonder if Yuzu thinks about it that way.
  14. I see that On Ice Perspectives got it on camera so we'll be seeing closeup of Yuzu and Pooh in high quality video over on his channel soon!
  15. If it wasn't for Yuzuru, I would never have had my first conversation in (very broken) Japanese, with actual Japanese speakers, yesterday morning. The four aunties were so pleased that I could say ' yonkaiten Salchow', 'sukoshi', 'kuyashii', and 'nihongo beginner desu' while pointing to myself, and then, while pointing to a picture of Yuzu I had open on my phone, 'because of him'. They all delightedly told me ( in great English) 'Ah, he changed your life! So wonderful!'
  16. Do it! Just make sure it's not against the rules ( undue pressuring of judges or something, maybe it's a thing, you never know)
  17. Yes. All we need is satellites to sit in groups of four.
  18. I think something like a poster with '110+', '220+', '340+', etc would convey the same meaning and put it in today's terms. Or use the GOE or component values max. '9.75' or '+5 GOE' says it very succinctly.
  19. I can't wait! I've been hoping and praying that Jordan would get to film Yuzu one day. Would be even better if he got to film Yuzu while skating with him.
  20. No. The 6.0 system was far worse and more corrupt than anything we see today. As a fan who started watching FS during the 6.0 era, I can guarantee that if the ISU went back to that, Yuzu would never win again.
  21. Possibly? Yuzu has incredible respect for his flag, as witnessed today. Maybe a different idea would be better
  22. It's early season and Skate Canada is six weeks away. My guess is he plans to tinker with it if needed..
  23. I know, right? Unless they mean the term in the sense of 'fans of Japanese things' , instead of 'fans that are Japanese' , it's so wrong to use right now. I've heard more Chinese in the last two days...!
  24. Imagine how much fun it would be if he came in person!
  25. But really, he's re-worked it a ton. It's not the same program exactly, so we'll see where it goes from here.
