ISU World Championshipts - March 7-9, 2008

[aaosmts19]

Yeah, I'm pretty disgusted, too. I guess I feel like a spoiled brat...way over tired, over stimulated and cranky.

I think I will call it a night.

That is, of coruse, until I put the dog out, go upstairs and get into bed, and open up the wireess laptop and cfheck for videos.

i-yi-yi....someone just shoot me.

But I'm a big girl now and i really am proud of them all and USS really is staking a claim and its not just due to Apolo. He should feel really good about seeing the sport take off, the caliber of coaches the US has and the upcoming talent.

Nevertheless, I'm skulking off into the night.

Here is the final live results as it appears on my computer....pitiful.

Did you get something to load Susie? All I have are color bars and/or Lord knows what the other one is....

[susie]

..so Russia will be in the relay final. Medal for us, for sure!

[debbief]

Great Britain is able to advance

Some friends are reporting what looks like highlights on these links. I got the audio -- and it sure sounded like a short track meet -- but no video.

Congrats, Canada!

Predictable final: USA, CANADA, KOREA, CHINA

Oh nevermind... USA, Canada, Korea, China, Russia, and the Brits???

This is bizarre.

[Ruff!]

Okay, so Hamelin's tied for 3rd? This is about to get freaking tricky.

[skaterswaltz]

Does anyone have a MAC that's getting the live feed? Evidently you can save the whole feed - at the end you save as Quick Time Movie and it'll save to your computer and upload it somewhere.

[susie]

You know it Ruff.

Your official Ruff, Welcome back!

...now behave yourself now so you don't get quarantined again!

Have a mac? Oh gee, I wish!
I rue the day I had to switch to 'the dark side' and get a PC.

Is ANYONE getting a feed? Both links were running inane BS for the last several hours, now that the skating is on, I'm getting nada!

[apoloslove]

Apolo's final was just on! He was so excited when he crossed that line. He pounded his fist and slapped hands with spectators on the other side of the pads. What a great race!

[apoloslove]

Relay is on right now...

[lilyover76]

Woohoo... that was great!!! Did you all get to see it???
Apolo was out in front from the very start and never relinquished that spot! What an amazing guy! He did slap some hands after he crossed the finish line... fantastic!!!!
