White and Davis were good alright, but not even close to the Canadians Moir and Virtue. They were fantastic.

I allowed for the fact that this is an informal forum in not also commenting on your improper use of 3rd rather than third (in formal writing, all numbers below 11 are always spelled out in full). But using "her" rather than "she" in the nominative (i.e., as the subject of the verb) is NEVER correct, as any college student and sorority member should know (I'm sure that your sorority, whichever one it is, emphasizes scholarship as one of its primary features or objectives).

Dude, what is your problem?! No one asked you to step in and provide a lecture on grammar. Shall we open the comments to your grammar?
1. Three exclamation points are not necessary.
2. Capitalization of NEVER is not correct.
3. You use far too many parenthesis.
4. Since the last sentence of your first quote is an entire sentence inside of a parentheses, the period belongs inside of the parentheses. Or, it can be viewed as a run-on sentence. Take your pick.
Those comments are off the top of my head. I'm sure I can analyze further and find more mistakes.

This is not a thread discussing the intricacies of the sport of ice dancing or what team performed better. This is a thread congratulating a Tri Delta. Start a thread on ice dancing if you would like to discuss other performers.


Also, YAY FOR MERYL AND CHARLIE!!!!!!!!!

Isn't it ironic?

If you're trying to teach people grammar, begin your lecture with a proper sentence.

Like DolphinChicaDDD said, this isn't really the place for such comments. You could learn a great deal about social grace and manners from the lovely Meryl Davis.

Why, thank you darlin'!
Ur grammar iz sooper!!111!!!

I was talking with a Michigan Delta last night who rushed Meryl. She said Meryl is as sweet and polite as she is on TV. Which really made me happy; too often I wonder if figure skaters, gymnasts, etc put on a show for the camera because that it what we expect of them.
