I fail to see how Gina’s situation can be compared to Lisa’s or Victoria’s for example? In the 1st place, you are NOT ignorant 😄 I don't know if Gina compares to Victoria, because I don't know why she took a year off. With Lisa, the rule for an injury like hers would be to take the year off to recover; Gina was the exception because with HER injury, while a different one, people typically don't return so fast. 6 Link to comment

A couple months ago, I tore my acl & meniscus in practice. I’ve made the decision to put my health first and get surgery. While this means that I will be temporarily leaving the most incredible experience of being one of America’s Sweethearts, I know that my future self will thank me. 🤍 It is not about the hardships you go through, but what you make out of them! I’m so thankful for the love and support I am surrounded by- especially my rookie sisters who surprised me last night! Time to get back to doing what I love! 2 1 Link to comment

My brain has gone AWOL 😂 I think you are getting confused as to what "rule" Gina is being called the exception to (and why). Generally, when you have a serious injury, especially something like your ACL, your recovery takes so long that you will end up sitting out a year. That is the "rule": serious injury = sitting out a year. Two things made Gina an exception to this rule: (1) the timing of her injury & (2) her dedication/hard work to coming back. If she had been injured before the team was formed, they could have replaced her and she would have missed the normal year. But it didn't happen until early in the season after the team was already set and they didn't have the option to replace her. Because of that, she could stay on the team & do everything but dance (non-dance appearances, etc.) while having the necessary surgery & working on her recovery. Having the surgery while on the team/during the season (I don't remember the actual date she had the surgery -- but she didn't need to wait for the off-season since she her injury was bad enough she couldn't dance) & working hard on her recovery, she was ready to re-audition the next season, thereby being the "exception to the rule" that a serious injury usually leads to missing a year. Lisa was hurt (or further aggravated her injury) during training camp & Amber before training camp started. The team wasn't set yet, so they're easily replaced and miss at least a year. 3 2 Link to comment

Have we even gotten any inside information this past years (online auditions) before TC even started? Even if the insiders are "alive" I don't think they have any interesting information at the moment. If the insiders are "alive" we still need to wait until anything actually happens. 1 Link to comment

GonnahearmeRoar May 20, 2022 Share May 20, 2022 On 5/17/2022 at 7:56 PM, LilyD said: While I see your point, there’s the fact that they’d have to come back with a perfect DCC-body (not easy!) a great stamina and with their dancing being up to par. a lot can happen, even in 1 year… In short; they need to be as good, if not better, as when they left. That’s a lot to ask. I’m especially concerned for those who skipped a year on medical grounds. A good recovery needs time, which means less time to be in perfect shape for audition.Add to that the fierce competition. The candidates seem to becoming more talented and experienced every year. The returning vets have been dancing almost until the new auditions start, so Kelli and Judy know they’ll be good enough to at least make it till finals and very likely the new squad. They won’t know this about a vet that’s returning from LOA. So, from that point of view, I think it’s good to have them start from the beginning. If they’re still as good, they’ll pass those tests with flying colours. You have some good points. I believe companies/organizations should offer some incentives like loa to their employees. Therefore, I don’t have an issue with the loa and advancement of returning vets in the process. Can’t wait to see how all of this works out - fingers are crossed. 4 Link to comment

Finals, then some cuts, then training camp. I think they've kind of turned finals into the first few days of training camp -- so probably why some are calling it finals & some training camp. Technically, they've made it to training camp because they've combined them, but whether they make it past the first couple of days (what they'd do in the pre-covid finals) to what was training camp pre-covid is ???????.
