For the most part I like figure skating, but I didn't watch last night 
I saw the proformance after the canadians and that was it... I also so the crash in warm-ups. From what I am hearing the Eastern European judges were voting for the home team.

The blonde chick in the russian pair was delicious.

I saw the Canadians some time ago and they're the greatest figure skating couple I've ever seen. There's this harmony and trust between them... they're one, totally relying on each other. Amazing.

yeah well, the Russians had more diamonds to give the judges.. whats your point?Of course its a load of crap, it was a judged competition. Most of them have some politics or bribes, I don't see why everyone is so shocked.

Umm, yeah. I enjoy watching ice skating but don't care enough about it to get into a debate over who won. I've got enough important shit to worry about without something as unnecessary as some ice skating drama tying up my time.</rant>Bad day.
don't mind me<edit> fucking illiterate self.

I don't care for skate of any type, hockey tho now that is a real sport.

Ooh, yeah! Like when they take off their stakes and start beating each other with them! Woo hoo!

I'm scared. I've been working at home some of this week, and I keep watching the Olympics. I've fallen deeply for the biathelon, Women's Hockey, and especially curling! It's actually somewhat exciting! However, I still can't deal with figure skating no matter how much they show it.

Curling is just too damn Canadian.I quite like hockey, actually, but I haven't been able to mount any interest in any olympic events for the past few years. I get much more excited over the actual medal count (triple stars 'n stripes for snowboarding/half pipe, woot)

Isn't curling like, Scottish? I enjoy hockey, but other than that, for the most part I couldn't give a damn about the olympics. I mean look at the US Basketball team for the next summer games, even our players aren't interested in participating, why should I be interested in watching?

Now that the president of the World Figure Skating Fairy Troop Union is on TV defending something... what the hell happened? It's just being called some huge controversy. Was it close? Was there a protest? Bought votes? I'm so confused.Anyway, that's why I'm more into sports where there's some non-subjective measure of who's better... running, hockey, curling, biathelon... anything where an integer or a time is the final score.

....And this is one of the things men hate most about figure skating. Your average fucked up real world relationship just doesn't measure up to the harmony of 2 athletes that have been training and practicing together for years. FUCK..... FIGURE..... SKATING!!!!!
