First let me say (and I've said it before) Rashad winning would be anything but a torture for me. But he still needs to step it up if he wants to beat Normani. And she is the one to beat, he got that right. The Jive was packed with content, high energy, and absolutely entertaining. It just wasn't perfect. So many football players have struggled with the technique of this dance, and I don't know why. They should have the strength to do it on their toes.

Just watched the trio. Let the judges argue about technique. In this performance it didn't even matter to me. Way to go! And finally a Fleetwood Mac song- that made it even better. Witney was perfect for this.

Bruno is in TeamShadSquads rehearsal this week....I think the are doing the Ruuuuumba Smile

by **Babs2147** Sat May 13, 2017 6:42 pm

Rashad doing the rumba? Can't wait! Very Happy

by **DeadManDancing** Sun May 14, 2017 1:34 pm

I wonder if he will feel like Alek when Emma turns up the heat. No limits for Bruno anyway. I can already hear the old grump. 'A tad on the raunchy side' or stuff like that.

Good luck in the semi-finals tonight, Emma and Rashad! Very Happy

Retirement for Len is my fondest desire. Of course the old grump had to nitpick Rashad. Len simply can't abide a young, fit, goodlooking and talented male. Happens every season.

Tossing Len to the sidelines, I loved Rashad's efforts tonight. Tha QS should have been all 10s. Anyway, Rashad fans have to vote like mad if we want our boy to win.

by **kincaid53** Mon May 15, 2017 11:05 pm

Yes madly I voted!!
Len start pulling those 10's out of you bum for Rashad....maybe it will unclog you, you ol' poopyhead Evil or Very Mad

Wonderful job on both dances!!!
Woo hoo

Going to the finals High five

What a sexy rumba and fantastic quickstep! Is Len getting senile or does he
need glasses? Rashad's footwork in the quickstep was superb!
I live close to Met Life Stadium and I know that the Giants' fans are coming
through for him. Looks like all that dancing he did on the playing field was
preparing him for an eventual MBT win. Yay!

No one deserves it more! Thumbs up!

on making it to the finals, Emma and Rashad!

Rashad and Emma did a wonderful job tonight. I'm not sure how to ever please Len unless it's to just let him pick the winner on day 1.

by **DeadManDancing** Tue May 16, 2017 5:01 pm

After 24 seasons, I would expect they know how to illuminate a stage and pick the best camera angles. The Rumba really suffered from that on screen. But what I saw of Emma was breathtaking.

by **kincaid53** Tue May 16, 2017 8:39 pm

There were a lot of camera shots of the floor and looking sideways at the audience and not on what the shot was suppose to be this season. Dizzy

by **DeadManDancing** Wed May 17, 2017 1:58 pm

At least those shots of the audience showed us a part of Rashad's support team: Emmit Smith and Donald Driver.

by **Babs2147** Mon May 22, 2017 6:01 pm

I've got everything crossed and am wearing my Giants T-shirt and cap in the hope

that it brings you luck in the final tonight. Very Happy

Good luck Emma and Rashad (#23)! Cheer

by **suebob16** Mon May 22, 2017 11:52 pm

In their Waltz package Rashad said he had never won anything so far--that he had to work hard for everything he has achieved. I hope he wins tomorrow night and that it will be the start of more good things for him. Also, the last time Emma was in the finals she and Bill worked hard to just get a "9" from Len. Tonight Emma received her first ever "10" from Len! Very Happy

What a great, fun Freestyle! It played to Rashad's strengths and also showed how well he can work with additional dancers. Good luck to Rashad and Emma!

by **Babs2147** Tue May 23, 2017 12:11 am

That freestyle was lively and energetic. WOW!

Bruno Mars would be proud of Rashad

and Emma; they were stupendous! If the busy phone lines are any indication, I'd

say their fans liked it too. Yay!

by **Glittersisgld** Tue May 23, 2017 12:19 am

Loved it and I'm sure Rashad is going to win.

by **peebeeb** Tue May 23, 2017 12:49 am

They did an awesome job.

by **Lesallee** Tue May 23, 2017 10:22 am

The VW deserved those 10s. Rashad mastered it this time. The freestyle was good, not the greatest fs I have seen but I believe it was enough to snag the MBT. Emma is proving to be a smart and canny choreographer.

by **DeadManDancing** Tue May 23, 2017 3:55 pm

The freestyle wasn't my favorite. Too much razmataz, too little dancing. A bit like Jacoby. But their Viennese Waltz was the dance of the night. It captured me. What more could I ask for?

by **peebeeb** Tue May 23, 2017 11:17 pm

Big congrats to Rashad and Emma!

by **Babs2147** Wed May 24, 2017 12:34 am

What a wonderful outcome. Congrats

to Emma and Rashad ( a winner at last)! Applause

Lez; are you insinuating there is *Bias* when it comes to judge's scoring? Heaven forbid - Ballroom Dancing, Olympic Ice Skating, Gymnastics, etc etc.

Folks; it ain't a true competition - it ain't a True Sport - when the winner is decided by the opinion of a judge. ¿¿Hello ¿¿

I'm pretty sure they're banging; he's tapping that. It's obvious.
