I'll join in with my support for these two.I'm glad TT & MM won the Olympics,and I'm sorry that they made it clear they will not be attending the 2006 Worlds in my backyard,literally (the Pengrowth Saddledome Stadium is about 7 blocks away from where I live).Plus,Tatiana looks so WOW in that tight blue catsuit for their short program,I can almost hear her voice saying "Resistance is futile".

Absolutely great idea for a thread, THANKS! And yes, a heart felt congratulations to the Olympic gold medalists, and YES totally, they not only were a class a part in this field, but truly have come such a long way. All the deserved critiques notwithstanding, the control, beautiful lines, skill and competitive spirit truly moved me.

Congratulations to Totmianina/Marinin for skating two gold-standard performances in Torino.

I love their skating to death, and I hope they have a lot of happiness in their future.

thanks God, they're retiring. I won't need to watch their dreadful but precise performance anymore. Congratulations on their retirement.

Lulu,

Thanks so much for starting this thread. T&M are great champions and great skaters in their own right. ITA that they don't have to be like other great pairs. For example the Protopopovs and Rodnina-Zaitsev had completely different styles. G&G, M&D, B&S all have their own styles. T&M have their unique style. I have really enjoyed watching them develop since 2001. That was when I first noticed that they could become champions. They delivered two fantastic performances under pressure. They really were the class of the field.

Congratulations Tatiana and Maxim!
