Holy...It'll sure be fun to see the rivalry between the Canadian pair and the Russian pair...And if I remember correctly, each person/team performs two programs, one being a technical program...So they're actually going to have to do stuff! :D

I can't wait! Great line up of competitors and I'm so excited Oksana will be taking part:]

North America v. The World? We won't have a Boitano/Browning showdown again this year. Bummer.

Actually it was a Boitano/Kulik and Hamilton/Browning showdown in 2002 Ice Wars.

Interesting Line-up, I am excited to see the pairs rivalry, and to see Nicole and Oksana. I haven't seen either of them skate in quite some time!
