I'm sure I was not
I'm sure I was not the only one yelling and throwing things at the TV screen.
The USA got robbed of the bronze, and Canada sure as hell got robbed of the gold. You know it's bad when the gold winners look like they're apologizing to the silver winners. You know it's bad when they stand on the podium and even they know they didn't deserve to win. The only people who looked happy were the bronze medalists. Feh!

The Canadians were passionate, dramatic, they had fun, and they were, well, GOOD! The Chinese couple were good, I think they deserved bronze. Our team should have had 4th, but hey, what can you do?

Posted by: Lisa Nichols at February 12, 2002 12:55 PMThe Chinese couple were all over the place! They should've gotten about 6th. Yes, they tried a quad, but they fouled it up, and they were visibly thrown for the rest of their routine. I'm glad at least the judges thought Sale & Pelletier did better than _that_...
