I dont know about any of you but I enjoyed the mens event more without Plushenko. I hope he retires and does not come back, I wont miss him at all.

slutskayafan21 said:Oh please, nobody could come close to beating a clean Plushenko, atleast not with the judges.
slutskayafan21 said:Well the competition is a better competition with him not there. Anyway no matter what he does he gets ridiculously inflated scores for transitions, choreography, and interpretation, as well as GOE on spins, and sometimes GOE on jumps. That sucks the life out of the event. Plus his skating while effective and excellent in a competitive sense is not interesting to watch at all.
So no I did not miss him at all. In fact the mens competition was far more enjoyable than the Olympics with him not there.
rain said:All I have to say is that I totally agree with this 100 per cent. The fact that he hasn't been challenged in four years shows in his own lack of development since Yagudin retired. He has not addressed his weaknesses, as the judges seem not to care about them either, and his choreography still leaves a lot to be desired.
dugyiho said:That's too bad about the judging. I am not an expert but in my opinion if Lambiel is clean he is just as good as Plushenko. But what do I know.

curious said:Sure,I don't want to see the BEST skater in the world compete next year cause he is going to kick my faves butt lol! They don't get plenty of overinflated scores for their flaws skates by those mean judges lol! And Jeff is without a doubt the most OVERSCORED skater in the sport lol
