RE: PyeongChang Olympics: Suck it, Russia
It's nice to know that Skating While Russian is still in full effect. Things that Kostner and Miyahara were docked for were shockingly not docked for Medvedeva (Osmond also got some ridiculous scores for her abysmal combo). Medvedeva may skate cleanly, but her technique is far from great. The Russian ice dance team also should not have been so close to the Shibs for that mess of a short dance.
I'm also going to have to deal with Patrick Chan as a gold medalist, and that makes me want to barf a little bit. |

Chris Mazdzer, our first ever men's luge medalist, is one of my Olympics boyfriends. I love him. Also, basically all of the Attacking Vikings...lawdy, lawdy.

The ice is shit. It looks like sludge. Also failed quads where you land on your ass should not count as a perfectly executed triple.

I...honestly cannot believe Rippon's beautiful free skate landed behind Kolyada's or eve Chan's splatfests. I mean, Kolyada scored higher than Rippon in PCS. How in the world is that defensible? I honestly think the Canadians and the Russians are colluding. I'm not even kidding. There now seems to be a Skating While Russian AND Canadian bonus going on.

The scoring was ridiculous. Rizzo and Rippon were the only one to skate clean programs.

That's the first time I've seen a woman land one live.

Chan has always gotten high scores for skates with multiple mistakes and it infuriated the Russian Federation. I doubt there's any collusion here. |

Brown and Rippon can't really land them without under-rotating I'd guess.
