Poor them. Hyping Nate like crazy didn't bring the results they hoped for? Even making the schedule fit prime time in the US didn't result in the entire nation thirst for Nate's uninspired skating? Who would've thought. :coffeebath:

I'm actually kinda flabbergasted at the amount of Chen ads. I've seen at least 4 different ads. Why so many? Why all focused on Chen? Some thoughts:

 

1) FS isn't even that popular in the US. The last time FS made it onto the national tv news was Chen's bombing the SP last OG. So not a great precedent.

2) Is Chen the US best chance for gold? Doubtful, because the US always brings a huge team so there should be many opportunities for medals.

3) Which leaves me with - Was Chen just the only athlete willing to travel and film ads during covid? I guess I can't fault him for getting the $ while he can. If he does intend to retire after this he'll need to make the endorsement deals while he can. But I side eye the thirst, it's so cringey. One ad is expected. This is too much.

Hi, guys! I am so out of the loop. I Yuzu there?? I saw on TV the inauguration happened but I already missed some skating rip. where are you guys watching it?  

I like to sleep in on a weekend but woke up many times this morning just to check if Yuzu has been sighted. 

He's really not going to check out the main rink until the actual day??

Second Olympic Games! Unfortunately, I wasn't able to show my good training performance. Nonetheless, i enjoyed every second on the olympic ice. After 2 difficult years with injuries and setbacks, I was able to fulfill my dream of the Olympics once again. Thanks to everyone who has always supported me especially friends, family and my fiancee. I wouldn't be here today without you.

I wish you:
@tim.dieck @katharinamueller_official @minervahase @nolanseegert @nicole_schott
The best possible performance and many more great moments. I'm cheering you on from Germany. 🇩🇪

Now it's time to enjoy the last two days as much as possible.

Wakaba seems to be struggling with nerves and it affects her practice.

I still feel like my body is not moving the way it normally does. I'm aware that I'm still getting caught up in the atmosphere around me. I want to do my best with the same motivation as in my regular matches.

I can only agree. It is extremely true.
Having the opportunity to see Yuzu skating this century is a great blessing. We are privileged for that. What an incomparable person and athlete he is. UNFORGETTABLE
:cri:I'm anxious, but everything is within his plans and everything will be fine. I trust Yuzu.:winky:
