I would still bone the shit out of Christine Hough.  For all the latest news on the show, I've been following Tie Domi's twitter and facebook.  He actually twats quite a bit, and he updates his accounts too!

THIS WAS HILARIOUS!! Tie Domi floating around. I didn't see his twats of being eliminated :/



Kristi Yamaguchi was guest judge, too bad she didn't get to review Craig Simpson's blue pirate shit outfit ROFL. I can't find no caps.

I saw Kristi Yamaguchi once at Mall of America a couple of summers ago. Still tiny (as in, seeing MM live at AX and going "HOLY SHIT THEY'RE TINY!") and definite MILFage.

* JFC feels shame as a figure skating fan that he hasn't remembered to check this series out.

don't worry CBC will rerun it like fucking hell

I saw this off KT's feed

^LOL what happened there


Tie Domi is awesome!

It was at the end of the last program, I believe, I haven't seen it yet actually.  On facebook I replied to Tie Domi: "Nooooooooo~~~~~~~~~!11111111" lol.  Damn you Bret Hedican, and damn you too Don Sweeney.  Marrying two of figure skating's hottest ladies.  Now I'm following Kurt Browning's twitter too, and he's been pimping the Blades for weeks!

And I'm glad that Dick Button isn't such a cocksucker anymore, I've never liked how he did commentary for CBS.  He was always too pro American for my taste.  Scott Hamilton was cool to listen to, as was Brian Orser for CTV, Underhill and Martini for CBC.  Dick Button's positive talk is nice to hear after scowling every time I heard his voice in the 90s.

Totally missed this. When was it on? GJ Simmer and Sale! The Alberta duo beat out the previous week's winners, Shae-Lynn Bourne and Claude Lemieux, to snag the Crystal trophy and $100,000 for their charity, the Spinal Cord Injury Treatment Centre.
