US WAG Olympic trials Night 2 (LIVE DISCUSSION)

[QuietColours]

If Wong could have just hit like this one other night–Trials or Championships, even…

 

[RedBirdie]

Oh no, Emily Lee injured on her Silivas. Stopped her routine.

 

[YurchenkoLoop]

Well this is heartbreaking. Emily Lee under-rotated her Silivas and is injured.

 

[Hatsumomo]

I held onto hope for her, even when it seemed nonsensical and only priming me for disappointment.

Oh, poor Emily. She seemed to have really hurt herself.

 

[QuietColours]

What an awful way to end the competition.

 

[arabiandoublefront]

That looked scary for Emily.

 

[Kittentoes]

We started trials with an injury, and closed with an injury.

 

[falcon9]

I hate it when athletes get hurt.

 

[Sasha]

Poor kid, that looks nasty.

 

[cats]

Ugh. Three passes away from her college career.

 

[makam]

Ouch, poor Emily.

(hopefully just a sprain but how disappointing for her. )

 

[cftmoonlight79]

Ugh that looks like an Achilles

 

[Doug1233]

Riley looks happy. I really hope she gets the +1 but I think it will be SKinner.

 

[Jack]

Almost definitely her Achilles. How awful.

 

[Onyxrose81]

Poor Emily! Wishing her a speedy recovery.

 

[gtu07]

I know they have probably all been vaxxed, but I can’t help but think that everyone should be wearing masks during that walk back. The men I think did a better job with this

 

[Doug1233]

It’s very easy for Tom just to pick the top 5.

 

[PeakePups]

Ok, crunching numbers:

Highest VT+FX from:
Classics, Nats & Trials: Wong
Nats & Trials: Wong
Trials Only: Skinner

Highest scoring team looking at average score from:
Classics, Nats & Trials: Skinner
Nats & Trials: Skinner
Trials Only: Skinner

Highest scoring team looking at best score from:
Classics, Nats & Trials: Wong
Nats & Trials: Skinner
Trials Only: Skinner

If Tom is really looking at the numbers the 4th team member should be Wong or Skinner. If he names Grace he is really just doing it because it’s the easy thing to do because she came in 4th at trials.

 

[makam]

I hope Riley is satisfied with her improvement even if the season didn’t go how she wanted.

Having Grace on the team and Mykayla as the +1 is an easy choice because they can swap them up to the day before the games, right?

 

[gtu07]

Looked like an Achilles or a broken ankle that might have happened on the take off
