<P>不知SASHA现在的表现如何,</P><br>
sasha赢了,哈哈! 关连商业比赛也不参加了现在啊？ 小关已经做了大使,我想这些商业性质的比赛她就更不感兴趣了.不过女单的阵容还不错的. <P>看看Sasha Cohen的表现...</P> 详情请看<a href="http://www.usfsa.org/event_story.asp?id=36940" target="_blank" >http://www.usfsa.org/event_story.asp?id=36940</A>.这次是东岸跟西岸比较啊,女单总体实力好象东部强些. <P>以下是来自sasha官方网站的报道:</P>
<P><FONT size=3>My new program is to Westside Story</FONT></P>
<P>I have put together a new program and have new dresses I am planning on wearing during Sunday’s Marshalls Skating Challenge.</P>
<P>My new program is to Westside Story. I love the music and the beat. It’s a different style for me and away from the classical music I have used for most of my competitive career so far. Westside Story is music that allows me to do some different things and fly all over the place. I had fun putting this program together and have had some good run-throughs.</P>
<P>I will skate my short program to God Bless America.</P>
<P>I am looking forward to competing Sunday while still seeing friends. It’s on live TV so that adds a little more excitement. I like the format putting the West Coast and East Coast skaters competing against each other. The top two in the first round will skate in the second round. That means I will be competing against Evan in the first round and hopefully against Johnny in the final round.</P>
<P>I’m sure most of you know fans will get to vote for the outcome. I won’t put the phone number or Web address here but I have asked my web master to provide the information on my home page by Saturday afternoon. </P>
<P>I hope I see, and hear, a lot of you at the competition.</P>
<P>I have to get ready to pack but will post another journal from Boston to tell you more about what I’m doing off ice.</P>

<P>也希望KIMMIE有更出色的发挥.KIMMIE和SASHA比较,我选择了KIMMIE.不知美国的观众和FANS又是怎么选择?</P>
<P>KIMMIE加油!</P><br><br>
等了好久了,期待sasha新节目在本赛季的第一次亮相!加油! <P>我在Weir专区里建了个专贴，大家有兴趣的可以去看看：<a href="http://www.chinaice.org/2635/dispbbs.asp?boardid=424&id=6509" target="_blank" >http://www.chinaice.org/2635/dispbbs.asp?boardid=424&id=6509</A></P>
<P>对赛制，参赛选手，看点我都作了翻译：</P>

<P><STRONG><FONT size=4>比赛概况</FONT></STRONG></P>
<P>ABC/ESPN报道员Terry Gannon和Susie Wynne将担任本次比赛主持人，而Kurt Browning将在现场（冰面上）对运动员进行采访。评审团成员：Dick Button，Peggy Fleming，Peter Carruthers，他们将在现场发表自己的意见，但比赛结果最终还得由现场和电视机前观众来决定。冰迷们可通过播固定电话和上美国冰协网站为自己喜爱的选手投票。</P>
<P>八位（对）美国本土顶尖选手将参加此次挑战赛。他们按训练地被分为“东海岸队”和“西海岸队”来进行对抗。每队的人员组成为两位女单选手，一位男单选手，一对双人（冰舞）选手。</P>
<P><STRONG><FONT size=4>参赛选手名单</FONT></STRONG></P>
<P><FONT color=#ff0033>东海岸队</FONT>（East Coast）<br>Emily Hughes, Great Neck, N.Y.<br>Kimmie Meissner, Bel Air, Md.<br>Johnny Weir, Newark, Del.<br>Tanith Belbin & Ben Agosto, Canton, Mich.</P>
<P><FONT color=#ff0033>西海岸队</FONT>（West Coast）<br>Sasha Cohen, Newport Beach, Calif.<br>Katy Taylor, Houston, Texas<br>Evan Lysacek, El Segundo, Calif.<br>Rena Inoue & John Baldwin, Santa Monica, Calif.</P>
<P><STRONG><FONT size=4>晋级制度</FONT></STRONG></P>
<P><FONT color=#ff0033>第一轮</FONT></P>
<P>西队四名选手依次上场，可滑表演节目，也可滑比赛节目。然后观众进行投票，得票数最多的两位（对）选手进入下一轮。</P>
<P>东队四名选手依次上场，可滑表演节目，也可滑比赛节目。然后观众进行投票，得票数最多的两位（对）选手进入下一轮。</P>
<P><FONT color=#ff0033>第二轮</FONT></P>
<P>晋级的四位（对）选手滑一套与前面不同的节目，可滑表演节目，也可滑比赛节目。然后观众进行投票，票数最多者即为最后的胜者。</P>
<P><STRONG><FONT size=4>赛事看点</FONT></STRONG></P>
<P>今年Marshalls挑战赛赛制基本沿用了去年的那套，陪审团不过就是做做样子的，最后的比赛结果由观众投票决定。这次参赛的全部是美国最顶尖的现役运动员，看来美国冰协在上面花了不少心思和金钱，重视程度可见一斑了。</P>
<P>尽管Weir近来状态不佳，但个人觉得他在这种比赛里的胜面还是挺大的。估计他不是滑表演节目就是短节目，这都是他拿手的；尽管美国冰协看他不顺眼，但观众的眼睛还是雪亮的；表演是他的专长，他也是个很有观众缘的选手。综上所述......反正这钱就是那么好拿，不拿白不拿。</P>
<P>另外，这次Johnny和Sasha这对活宝由队友变成了对手，B/A将和Meissner一争高下（美国冰邪网站是这么写的，我个人理解就是说Weir百分之百晋级，Emily Hughes百分之百淘汰，剩下的那个名额B/A和Meissner你们就争吧。BT！！！GP不如的冰邪造就GP不如的赛制，出现这种GP不如的看点）都将是看点。</P>

我看毕竟是商业比赛,进不进得了下一轮也没什么,我想选手们也不会很重视,只不过给观众们娱乐而已.通常这个节目会在圣诞节重播,也算是美国花样滑冰队给美国观众的圣诞节礼物吧. 期待中……谁有视频？不要告诉我做梦去 <DIV class=quote><B>以下是引用<I>小公主</I>在2006-12-9 10:39:05的发言：</B><BR>我看毕竟是商业比赛,进不进得了下一轮也没什么,我想选手们也不会很重视,只不过给观众们娱乐而已.通常这个节目会在圣诞节重播,也算是美国花样滑冰队给美国观众的圣诞节礼物吧.</DIV>

<P>我看这根本是美国冰协下达给选手们的“政治”任务。
<P>花滑近两年在美国不太景气，到了年关自然要为其打一针强心剂了。用这种方法招揽观众，顺便也为来年的全美锦标赛造造势。
<P>搞的跟选“美国偶像”一样，美国冰邪网站还公然写着
<P>Sasha Cohen and Johnny Weir going head to head? Ice dancers Tanith Belbin & Ben Agosto versus Kimmie Meissner</P>
<P>我一开始还看得一头雾水呢，冰舞选手怎么和女单选手Vs起来了~~</P> <P>Evan Lysacek and Katy Taylor are out</P>
<P>Rena Inoue & John Baldwin and Sasha Cohen advances!</P> <P>Kimmie Meissner and Johnny Weir advance out of the East Coast</P><br>
<P><U>the final four:</U> </P>
<P>Sasha Cohen </P>
<P>Kimmie Meissner </P>
