ok, getting away from the "oh haha he's gay!" for a second, with Takahashi's big fall the bronze has fallen well into reach, so he removed the quad. Just needs a solid skate to medal.

Yes, exactly. That sort of thing is my main critisism of skating. Too much opinion.

Maybe a little Tilda Swinton thing going on there, too.

Yes, but that could be said of most of the judging in the Olympics. A lot of it is very subjective.

oh God, that rose crown

ROFL

Nice hat of roses.

That guy got hosed, even figure skating judges don't like the flamboyantly gay.

5th place. Should've left the quad in, apparently.

FALL you Russian bastard!

It amuses me that this mullet guy talks like he's a badass, you're a ****ing figure skater man.

I'd have to agree. As far as that kinda thing goes, he seemed to do a pretty good job and deserved a higher score.

Plus, he kinda had a nice ass.

Oh, crap, did I say that last part out loud? I was only thinking it. Never mind, move along, nothing to see here...

"You better watch it, man. I'll cut you." :::giving Mecca the stink-eye and threateningly raising one skated leg...:::

well, unless he screws up, that is probably the gold. Then, 4 more years till we have to care about this at all again.

I think it's kind of ridiculous when a guy that literally fell right on his face gets a higher score than a guy who doesn't.

I'm reading elsewhere that Johnny Weir apparently had a very easy program and never had a chance even if he did it absolutely perfect.
