Do you like any of the young US guys, from junior?
Pulkinen and Krasnozhon, mostly. But it's not the same. It's more of a soft spot for two really talented young guys than the "I will get up at 3am on a work night to watch you" love.

Meanwhile ... has Emmanuel Savary moved to Colorado to become a Tom Z skater?
Both have dropped hints to that effect.
Honestly, I think someone like Damon Allen would be a better fit. And I think Emmanuel would be a perfect first senior skater for Joshua Farris (assuming he is or wants to coach/choreograph full time now) to do a SP with.
One of the hints was that Tom Z tagged Emmanuel in this Instagram post:
But I do not know anything for sure.
(I would be happy for any chance for Josh to choreograph competitive programs.)
Didn’t know where to put this...but can someone explain what’s happening at the beginning of this video? Is he cleaning something off the ice?

…. Shouldn't they have some sort of venue staff doing that kind of stuff, not an athlete? ...
There were bugs on the ice. They happen there at certain times of the year, and they had him picking them up, which was ridiculous because that's what the sweepers are there for.
I was there and the sweepers were little kids. Some were very shy and the others were not paying attention to the ice. There were times that we spectators kept calling them to come and pick the stuffed animals before the next skater. In case of bugs, in the beginning, none of them moved so Adam picked them up himself. After that they noticed and picked the bugs I guess two times.
1. How big were these bugs that the judges could literally spot them on the ice from where they were sitting? I guess if you’re judging FS you should have good eyesight, but like even in the video with it being zoomed in, I had no idea those were bugs untill I read about it here.
2. Why is it so important that they would delay his skate to remove them like...worse case scenario, he runs over a couple and slices them in half or something? Seems like there were not that many in the first place, and the rink is so big and they are little bugs after all...
3. What kind of bug even hangs out on an ice rink of all places? Isn’t cold generally unsuitable for insects?
