Nice to see Bradie in 4th following the SP. If she can hold onto to that position it will a huge confidence booster. Clearly no one is catching the leader with a score of 85 plus.
She's doing her country proud!

Apparently, my English is not so good as to talk about too complicated and sophisticated things. My apologies if you are confused

Have you read the "The Prince" of Machivelli? There, among other things, is one interesting and as it seems to me correct, true, thought (I paraphrase adjusting to this situation) - creating a system you have to proceed from the fact that people are bad. Sorry It means reflecting on the possible problems of inconsistent refereeing it's necessary to assume exactly the bad thing in people - that, temporarily loyal refereeing will corrupt the athlete. Instead of starry-eyed talk about "inspiration" etc. Sorry, it's cynical, but closer to reality)) You know what? Listen to a smart, successful woman who, unlike you and me, understands these things
I think she will win Nationals again also. She could possibly enter her first major international competition (2022 Olympics) as a four-time US champion.
Ahem...I have read it. Many times. I even understand that book. Fascinating as it is (taking Cesare Borgia as a role model for example as to how one should act - that was before his father died - and he was successful) I don't see the link with a young girl skating her heart out who has not been 'corrupted' by judging at all - whatever we think about her URs not being called earlier but they were today. I don't think 14-year-olds are that cynical yet. Nor should their coaches instigate that kind of thinking. Temporarily loyal refereeing will corrupt an athlete? To me, even thinking about young girls being corrupted like this, is an anomaly. Please, leave the conspiracy theories about judging to older people, and let this young phenom just skate her best. And remain a young girl for a little longer.
Also, there’s this VERY talented young girl (her Instagram is private) on Raf’s team and she just got all her triples. Once she hits juniors, it’s over for everybody. I hyperbolize but I’m quite excited to see where she’ll go. Reminds me of when I first saw Alysa when she was 10-11 in terms of excitement, nothing else.
I was simply jesting, hahaha. I’ll post a few clips of her on Twitter. I’m simply saying that she’s very talented for her age and I’m not comparing her to anyone. Moreso than her jumps, her musicality, skating skills, and edges are what caught my attention. Not trying to hype her or whatever, simply saying that I enjoy watching her skate.What you mean "it’s over for everybody"? Is she better then Alysa?
How did Bradie skate today? I had her getting 6th and she ended up fifth which I think is great.
Landed everything! (w/a few URs)
