Would have been even more incredible if Michael Jackson had sung the tune!

I'm guesstimating the early favs....Ralph and Sugar Ray. Although...I'm kinda guessing that Ralphie can't dance. Sugar Ray's got some fancy footwork....loved watching him box back in the day when his division was kickin'....Sugar Ray, Marvin, Roberto.....some good fightin'....

Thanks Valley. Watched a few of the other clips as well. My thoughts:
"MY" Cheryl is looking better than ever!
I wish Chris Jericho was Roddy Piper, Jake The Snake, or Ricky Steamboat! I stopped watching wrestling in 85!
Ralph seems like such a nice guy...I'd like to have a beer with him.
My early favorite to win....Sugar Ray Leonard,,,,you heard it here folks!

Reminder: The new season of Dancing With The Stars begins tonight!
I've got to be honest.. even though I have Sugar Ray Leonard and hope he does well. I totally want to see Ralph Macchio go as far as possible!

I'm hoping for Ralph too Valley. I think he'll get far on "oooohhhh...the Karate Kid" votes alone!

Aww, it was so cute seeing Ralph being introduced in the beginning! Is it just me, or does that man NOT age?? He still looks like a kid to me.

I agree Kev, Wendy was HORRID. Ralph and Kirstie were the best! My girl Kendra did pretty good too, I thought Posts: 731 | From: Racine, WI | Registered: Dec 2003 | Site Updates: 0

I thought it was a good opening night, too. A lot of good performances, especially for the 1st time. Should be fun to see them take off from here.

I was excited that both of our 80's favs .. Ralph Macchio and Kristie Alley did excellent for the opening night of DWTS!
Coop424.. I think your pal Ralph is in it to win it!
Ronnie.. great point about Kristie and "Loverboy".. I'd love to see Patrick Dempsey in the audience one night!
On a side note.. I was a bit disappointed in Sugar Ray Leonard's performance, but quite enjoyed hearing the tune "The Power of Love"!

OK Ronnie.....so I wrapped up all my DVDs that have cardboard covers, and they are ready to ship to you.......IF.... you trade Ralph for Chris Jericho.....OH....COME ON!!! Ralph and Cheryl would look good together!
Gotta say, if Ralphie keeps dancing that way...he's a shoe in. Again, simply being the Karate Kid will garnish many votes...even if he couldn't dance. But now that he can dance....winner for sure. Similar to Jennifer Grey last year...the girl could dance....and....being Baby from a movie everyone in the world has seen....I suppose didn't hurt!

Kev.. I thought Ralph Macchio came out of the gate strong, but Jennifer Grey was on another level in my opinion and was just an amazing dancer. Macchio shows promise, but I want to see more and of course a waltz to "The Glory of Love"!
btw, if Cheryl was dancing with Ralph .. I would already hand him the mirrorball.

I've actually only seen a few clips of Jennifer dancing, and am not surprised she could kick it on the dance floor. I think my surprise with Ralph was that I would have bet he couldn't dance a lick! And, I agree, I don't think he'll leave before dancing to Mr Cetera.
And...true dat re Cheryl. I always had a little crush, but this year...wow!
I do wonder how much their "celebrity" actually plays in the votes...I'm sure it must have some influence. But then again.....Nick Lachey won didn't he?
