Well, I ususally follow the ice skating but this year don't seem to be too interested in it. Don't know why but usually to me that is the best part of the olympics next to the skiing and speed skaters of course. But that is my opinion.
My take on it is if the Canadians had an overall better program, skated clean, and did all of the requirements needed for that program then I feel the best skaters should win.
Besides that the judge ended up leaving the panel and going home for further review right? So I don't think she's even part of the equation anymore. And your right CG, they did get gold, its on MSNBC.com website with big letters GOLD!
I've seen enough ice skating shows and have watched how the judges are and how particular they are that I don't see how this could possibly be such a controversy. This should have been one of those things of the football game replay issue, I think they need to do that in ice skating??
But if the judge was persuaded to vote one way then I believe the Canadians were deserved in the gold.
Why does it always seem to be the ice skaters that get all the attention in these olympic games? It seems to be less exciting of a sport than say speed skating or downhill skiing or the ski jumps. DH seems to think that ice skating gets too much publicity, I say they don't get enough GOOD publicity.
