Men's short on Eurosport now!

[Ptichka]

Soooo thrilled for Johnny!!!!!

Pleeease...no more Euro techno music for the SP: Kevin van der Perren, Irina, Elena Sokolova (techno Romeo and Juliet???). It just screams EUROTRASH

[childfreegirl]

End of that group.

[SusanBeth]

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.

Not so fast! They may have given Plushenko that huge insurance policy over Lambiel, because they think Lambiel's the biggest threat. Since Lambiel wasn't dead on, they had some justification. They can still put others in some long-shot-but-possible fighting range. I wouldn't totally count out Joubert and when Sandhu is on (I know ) he is flat out magnificient!

(I just realized that I am both hopelessly cynical and a die hard romantic! No wonder I get so confused. )

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

I don't know, but I volunteer for the committee who will check. That's in addition to my voluntary babysitting services. Yep - Dirty Old Lady to the end!!

OK - I think the last group will be exciting. I'm betting Evan goes for a 4/3. It will be cool if he tries it, and even cooler if he lands it!! And Matt - GO CLEAN and gorgeous. Throw caution to the wind.

Here we go again!
