Men's short on Eurosport now!

This event is already over. The russians now have two gold medals. I think they'll get that third one, too. I wonder if the pressure will really be on Irina to complete the sweep.

Although it appears that Plush has skated a 'personal best' awesome SP....I can only say "Remember Nice." Nice Worlds....where Plush had it in the bag yet flopped in the LP and landed out of the medals, right?

It ain't over 'til Lucianno Pavarotti sings!

Simon just said, about Johnny: "He's the John McEnroe of skating!"
"the glove is called 'Camille'...he blames a bad performance on it!"

They're talking about Camille!:chorus:

A viewer question: "Do the skaters wear underwear?"

And here goes Johnny!

[Frau Muller]

Here's Johnny Weir!!!! Applause - yells....

"What's in store for Johnny & Camille?"

"3 axel - BEAUTIFUL!"

"He's on fire - 3ltz-3 toe!" [awww...no quad....]

"3 flip - no problem."


"The enigmatic Mr Weir comes up with the goods....absolutely thrilled...this should take him to 2nd place- better than Lambiel."


YEAH, JOHNNY!!!!!!!

For me the event is over when the last skater to perform is done. I actually enjoy people's skating regardless of their placement. It was a joy to attend Nationals live and see all the "lower" tier skaters that we never saw on TV. It was a given that B$A would win but would I just walk in the stands while others are competing and just come back for B&A? That's nuts.

I am absolutely thrilled for Zhenya and glad that Stephane is in the hunt, but there is no way I would say it's over. Maybe the gold is, but there are still 2 more spots left on the podium!

3a - beautiful!
"He's on fire!"
3L/3t
3f "No problem"

"Thank you Johnny"

I am finding it a bit hard to believe that Johnny only beat Lambiel by less than 1 point. Johnny was great and I thought that Lambiel was pretty shaky. His spins weren't up to his normal high standards, he doubled his 3A, and the landings on his quad combo were both cheated. Johnny was nice and clean and deserved his PB score.
