Falling out of the Picture...US female skaters

[Kacie B]

<FONT FACE="Verdana,Arial" SIZE=2>The five skaters listed below are generally the most highly regarded up and comers in US figure skating. Unfortunately, with so many, not all of them can become successful. Of These skaters, who is most likely to have fallen almost completely out of the US Skating picutre by the 2001-02 season?

Too early yet......all still can improve :) I don't want
to choose now.

I don't know, it's too early to predict. I hatw to say it, but I don't think Naomi is going to be on the 2002 US Olympic Team, because of her injury this year and consistancy. Although, Michelle had an injury a few months before Nationals and had to skate of her life :)

What about none of the above or others? :)

I wish sara would drop off the face of the earth, but I voted for deanna stellato; she may end up being just another amber corwin/angela nikodinov on the edge hanger on...

[Hadas]

MariKat19, that is an incredibly rude thing to say. I hope heather or jenny see this and edit it or something.

[Corbon91]

ITA, Hadas. Heather, Jenny, please do something.

[peglewis]

That was a very unkind thing to say.

Isn't injury forcing Stellato to cut back this season?

[eyecry]

I believe that Deanna announced she wouldn't be ont he competitive scene hardly at all this season, reasons were not disclosed, at least I don't think they were. She is not my vote though...I hope she'll be back I like her style

[peglewis]

Thanks for the info on Deanna Stellato. I liked what I saw of her skating a great deal. I hope she can come back.

I like Sarah Hughes to stay and win the Olympic bronze medal, perhaps, behind Michelle and Irina. Now THAT was nice, wasn't it?

[Lipinskifan19]

Oh yea, MariKat19? Well i wish Sarah would win nationals. :b
(Actually it'd be really nice if Angela N.won b'c I'd be really happy if it was Sarah too)

[sk8ing lady2001]

I will say nothing else, Lipinskifan19, except that I want Michelle to win the Olympics especially. I kinda wish you would agree with me. Who else does, if not you?

MICHELLE FOR GOLD IN SLC!!!

i dont want to predict something like that...it seems almost like wishing them bad luck or something....

i dont think sarah's going anywhere for a while. :)

[sk8ing lady2001]

Of course I want Michelle to win it all...but I wouldn't wish anyone else bad luck.

[mari19]

But I am hoping NNN comes back next season, and Jenny Kirk stays skating well. I'm neutral on Sasha, but I hope she lands her quad.

[lyrakwan]

i picked jenny kirk... IMO.. she lacks the artistry needed in the sport to excel .

[lyrakwan]

.. none of the above..

Im gonna have to say all of them are not that good:rolleyes
