I like Ryan Bradley and hope he does well in whatever he chooses.  He hasn't ruled out another comeback!

Is there an online petition to get him into SOI?  *goes to look* 

ETA: Nope, not yet.  I'd sign it - maybe there's one on Facebook.


I received an email from our Director asking if skaters were interested in having him come back for a summer camp again this year.  I have to check my calendar, but I'm hoping the girls have the two days free because they'd love it.  (July 21-22 in NC - if you're interested, send me a PM about details.)

Now that he has a championship, I would be shocked if SOI doesn't pick him up.  Without the title he wasn't marketable enough, but with it- the guy is a born show skater.

I have been wanting to create an off-ice step aerobic workout to add to the Coaches Choice product line. Since 2008 Nationals in St. Paul, I've been talking with my usual "co-stars," and we agree that Ryan is pretty much the only elite male who could pull that off. We'd love to have him in that video, if we ever end up making it. Anyone know his publicist?  ;)

I want to see him shirtless, in tight shorts doing overhead presses or maybe chinups.

As a motivator, of course.

He just has to stand there and grin and I'm motivated!
