How is it politics for the Bulgarians? I'm pleased to see them in 3rd so far, that is great! It would be a nice comeback for them to be on the podium at the Olympics after dropping to 5th at 2005 Worlds.
I will wait judgment on the Italians until I see them skate. I sincerely hope they don't just have this lead because of homecooking.
