Mirai Nagasu, 2018 US Championship FS

Okay, okay, she two-footed the triple axel. Sue her.

I thought her PCS should have been higher. Silver medal, forsooth.

but I do think Bradie Tennell deserved to win. She just nailed her program. Full disclosure, I was raised in Carpentersville. Must say, I'm astounded anyone would choose to live there....

... give her time (and money), and she may come to her senses.

I agree, Tennell was technically flawless, so her 5 point edge on Nagasu there is fine with me. I distinctly remember saying "Holy shit" twice during her program.

Nagasu skated her guts out. I guess I'm just a sucker for a woman's tears.
