Euros 2024 Pairs FS: "We Want More Wedgies"

[marbri]

Kudos to whoever does the music here. Kalush Orchestra while the Ukrainian team waited for their scores and now Maneskin after the medal ceremony.

Germany barely held onto 3 spots for next season - 5th & 7th. Georgia gets 3 spots and you have to wonder if there are any other mid-level Russian pairs looking at their options and checking their family trees for Georgian ancestry. And Italy will certainly use their 3 spots again next year.

I'm not sure Metelkina/Parkman needed this

 

[Karen-W]

I'm so glad Peacock let us see the medal ceremony! The reactions from the Italians, especially Matteo at the end of their anthem, have put a huge smile on my face that isn't going away. This was just the right antidote to the shocking results from the Men's & Women's SPs.

 

[SkateFanBerlin]

This performance was very Hase/Seegert. Nikita is usually like a forklift and doesn't make those kinds of mistakes on pairs elements. The potential Euro medal nerves got to them maybe?

I saw them at nationals. Volodin is such a big boy. When he lands his 3T the ice surface shakes.

 

[airgelaal]

Hungriskis/Russigarians: Ve vant medal! Ve wuz-robbed! Iz not fair!

Everyone else at Euros: YOU DON'T EVEN GO HERE.

WOW that is truly incredible

 

[Wyliefan]

Maybe they'll call Interpol.

 

[miffy]

They got the highest TES. They should be able to work out what the problem is from the scores…

 

[Vagabond]

If they don't like ISU judging, they can always try out domestic Russian judging.

 

[Karen-W]

Maybe they should talk to their fed about not backing out of hosting Europeans less than a year beforehand...

 

[rfisher]

If there was any hope in hell that the Russian Fed would release her, I could imagine a Kosternadze/Kunitsadze (what, they've always been Georgian, did you know that??)

I'm sure if she gave Tutberidze a call, she'd be willing to put in a good word with the Fed. Both of them.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Btw, just a side note: please pay attention that the only pairs who didn't have an emo cover for their LP are the only couples who medaled.

You consider Cinema Paradiso to be an emo cover?

 

[Frau Muller]

You said that about someone yesterday too. What does it mean?

Unprofessional. Loose…no spine…not tough…Two Italian pairs look like that. Only Ghilardi/Ambrosini show the toughness, among the three Italian pairs.

 

[rfisher]

OK, all those who look up statistics, this was Matteo's 10th trip to Europeans, his first medal and it's gold. Who can top that in any discipline? Never give up.

They are right. Fourth place was a joke.

 

[Hedwig]

I wonder how many sports persons in all managed to title in two different disciplines. He is world Champion in rollerskating and now European champion in figure skating

Kudos to whoever does the music here. Kalush Orchestra while the Ukrainian team waited for their scores and now Maneskin after the medal ceremony.

And then we had Eros Ramazzotti, Italodisco, more Måneskin, the whole Italian playlist

It won't be easy for him on Saturday after the women

Oh I'm sure they can find a few (that most people think are French): Jacques Brel, Maurane, Axelle Red, Stromae, Mentissa, Plastic Bertrand, Alice on the Roof, Lio, Iliona, my almost homonym Kate Ryan, Selah Sue, Angèle and, first and foremost, unfortunately for my ears which can't stand her, the abominably shrieking Lara Fabian (Jotem anyone )

Excuse me while I watch 35634753 hours of Russian Pairs as a palate cleanser.

I'll add to the list: Babe Didrickson Zaharias, who won 3 Olympic medals in track (2 gold, 1 silver), then went on to win 10 LPGA titles (and 38 other professional golf tournaments). She was also a proficient basketball and baseball player (she even pitched in spring exhibition training camp games under Major League Baseball). Sadly she passed away due to cancer at just 45 years of age.

I've passed by her museum off of I-10 in Beaumont about 90-bazillion trillion times driving between Texas and Louisiana. One of these days I've gotta stop by.
