Team USA vs. Russia
Red Sox vs. Yankees
...tonight, I saw a miracle on these lines.
Girl 1, who only does Aguilera songs...fucking belted it out. Only, she never made eye contact with the crowd, always facing to the side or the back. Score:
10, 10, 8.5
Girl 2, who's never went to the finals...Gave it her all, gave eye contact, did everything right.
10, 10, 10
Now...at the end of the competition, someone cheated and marked that 8.5 up to a 10. They gave her "Come On Over." Belted it out, never gave eye contact, but got a huge pop from the crowd.
The second girl couldn't follow "Walk This Way" too well at first, as she's all for ballads, but she caught up. Hit everything. Looked at the crowd, and gave a glance that said "I'm going to win, motherfuckers."
Completely outranked, completely out-supported...Girl #1 was a likely winner. But then...somehow...Fucking everyone recognized Girl #2's effort. It was if that final ball, final puck, final note had just hit, leaving you with the realization that...holy fuck something went right for once.
...and yes, ladies and gents.
I believe in miracles.
