One of the greatest figure skating couples of all time.
Miss them.
February 19th, 2010 at 2:46 PM
They were the better skaters that night and everyone knows it. That still angers when I see that when they got screwed out of it. The IOC did the right thing to give them the gold.
February 19th, 2010 at 3:48 PM
russian scums kept their gold this is just pathetic.

You don’t take away those Russian golds. The Russian pair didn’t cheat it was the French judge and even it was tainted you don’t take it away unless they cheated and they didn’t.

zhidenek, ty chto tut nesesh’,idiot
February 19th, 2010 at 10:15 PM
@redmustang03 They didn’t cheat, but they would have scored lower than the Canadian pair if it were not for the tainted vote the French judge cast. But BECAUSE the vote was tainted, and a fair score was never given, they could not remove the Russian’s Gold either. So they both got it.

I know still we all know the Canadian pair won fair and square but they also put in a new scoring system where you actually don’t know who the judges are, taking less pressure off of them to score more fairly. Just like with the Lysacek and Plushenko scores. You don’t know who judged them and you don’t have the first place scoring votes so you just go off the scores of the short, free combining them obviously to see who wins.

shame…..

It sucks in a day and age where technologu is awesome, and peopple are supponse to be better and more global we still see BS like this. I dont know much about figure skaing, but that performance was incredible and flawless, just incredible, and the audience and judges felt it too…so why even try and BS it? Pretty sad…Just think about how many other parts of life are scandalized that we just dont notice or ignore…”sigh”….
February 20th, 2010 at 10:56 AM
Beautiful performance!
February 20th, 2010 at 3:34 PM
Yes but my point was if the Canadians were so amazing why did the US, Japan, Germany, or Canada. not give 6.0. If it was SO flawless.
February 21st, 2010 at 12:24 AM
The thing is…what kind of gold medal it would be for Canada after scandal? Oh come on…
Should Plushenko also skandal over gold medal of Evan? You won then you won! If you lose then STFU and take your silver!
February 21st, 2010 at 4:21 AM
I can’t even imagine going through all they did to get to this moment, and then have judges CONSPIRE against you…..how cheated would you feel for the rest of your life?
February 21st, 2010 at 4:33 PM
The problem was that it turned out at the Salt Lake Olympics, the French judge confessed to being pressured to put the Russian pairs on top in return for a favour for the French ice dance pairs. The Vancouver Olympics have no judging scandal since the whole scoring system has been changed. The two situations are totally different. Sale and Pelleteir were willing to accept the silver, but then the truth came out about the rigged judging.
February 21st, 2010 at 4:40 PM
yeah, I noticed that too. People just need to face the truth that the judging was rigged. The whole world found out about it, but I guess some are still in denial. I think both pairs performed great, but if it turned out a judge was pressured to vote one way, and the Canadians lost by one vote, then of course they should have got the gold.
February 21st, 2010 at 4:44 PM
I’ve been noticing a trend that only the positive comments for the Russian pairs are showing. That’s really weird. Just because someone’s opinion differs from your own, you shouldn’t thumb it down (unless they are using profanity, etc).
February 21st, 2010 at 4:48 PM
They didn’t break any rules. The French judge who admitted to being pressured to vote for the Russians broke the rules. They were willing to accept silver, until the crap hit the fan and the whole world found out about the rigged judging. If you lost by only one judge, and then found out one vote was contaminated, of course you would question the result.

I don’t get why people like this program. They don’t have any artistry. The choreography is something I would expect from a junior level team, not a senior pair at the Olympics.
February 21st, 2010 at 8:35 PM
other judges votes were absolutely equal for free skate (4 for SP, 4 for BS), and what about short program?
I am sorry, I do not want to say SP were worse from the point of absolute Beaty or Sport as it is.
The old rules (6.0 system) open special opportunity for BS, and they took 2002 Gold.
The mirror situation in 2012 – Lysachek used opportunities of new rules, didn’t he?
February 21st, 2010 at 8:37 PM
popular in terms of very easy to understand, very easy to read and get emotions. That was brilliant.
Of course, during 2002 Games one could see REAL artistry – I mean short programm of Yagudin.
