It's not realistic for any of them to medal in February, but Chen and Tenell are still young and have another Olympics in them and the experience will be invaluable. Wagner already went to the Olympics, so if they're going to send an "old" (relatively speaking) lady to the Olympics for sentimental reasons, let it me Nagasu rather than Wagner, especially now that Nagasu placed 2nd. I think the scoring has been weird this competition but sending the top 3 is the best choice.
Im just saying that world FS audience will enjoy Ashley the most. There is a ton of prooves for that. Mirai is not loved that much like she is in America, but she skated a little bit better at Natonals than Ashley, so... Bradie deserves to go the most, obviously.... But from all of them, Ashley will get highest PCS and apllauds from the audience and sports commentators. She wiil be the one being remembered, i have no doubt in that. I doubt someone will talk about Bradie, Karen and Mirai skating tho (unless some of them put an upset and medals somehow, or Mirai lands clean 3As). That was my point.
