Members Cat Posted February 18, 2010 Members Share Posted February 18, 2010 I know there is zero chance of this happening but I hope glitter bunny Johnny Weir pulls something out of the bag that puts him in medal contention. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DAMfan Posted February 18, 2010 Author Members Share Posted February 18, 2010 I also hope Johnny will surprise everyone and it would be exciting if he can. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted February 19, 2010 Members Share Posted February 19, 2010 (edited) I hope he gets the bronze or silver. He doesnt have a shot for the gold. He is in 5th place. As for getting second or third I dont see the judges giving him the scores for his flaming skating. Sad but true.

Members DAMfan Posted February 19, 2010 Author Members Share Posted February 19, 2010 Evan did it he won Gold - however think Johnny was robbed and should have won bronze. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members lovely_m Posted February 19, 2010 Members Share Posted February 19, 2010 Apparnetly not everyone thought Evan deserved to win, http://sports.yahoo....=yhoo&type=lgns. Mishin felt the same way http://sports.yahoo....=yhoo&type=lgns. Plushenko's a sore loser to boot. he called Evan "not a real champion". I understand that Mishin feels this way, but Elvis's reaction suprised me. Figure skating needs to be a complete package and not just based on who can do a quad. This also goes the other way around too. I remember being infuriated when Jefferey Buttle would score high at events based on his artistry, but he couldn't jump to save his life. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DAMfan Posted February 19, 2010 Author Members Share Posted February 19, 2010 Plushenko said no one could win if they didn't do a quad - Evan was golden last night - tonight it is the ice dancing SP and I really look forward to Sun. when Davis/White do their LP to POTO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DAMfan Posted February 20, 2010 Author Members Share Posted February 20, 2010 IMO - skating is more then doing a quad and then think o.k. now give me the gold and Evan was the complete package with so many elements in his LP and deserved the Gold! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soapsuds Posted February 22, 2010 Members Share Posted February 22, 2010 Now wasnt that hot! I havent read those comments but Plushenko's quad was wobbly at best. All his jumps werent clean. GMAB Plushenko....you looked like you were going to fall on every jump you attempted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted February 22, 2010 Members Share Posted February 22, 2010 (edited) I can't believe these people still have jobs. How can you work in the media and think it's ok to say these things? At least JW showed some joy in his his skating, which can't be said for Plushenko. http://tiny.cc/JaG1T Edited February 22, 2010 by Juliajms 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members jcar03 Posted February 22, 2010 Members Share Posted February 22, 2010 Here is the 2006 Original Dance from the Italian Pair where he falls near the end of the program and she gives him a stare down that the commentators have been talking about: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BhfFaKWA0Ek The fall happens at the 3:15 mark. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
