i didnt know Passion Patinage, is it a forum?although speaking in french about skating is almost like shooting my brain, c 'est pas possible!
Passion Patinage is a French figure skating website with interviews, articles, photos (occasionally ones they get from Nathalie Péchalat) and other information, as well as a forum. If you're a fan of the French figure skaters ;), it's a really good resource. And I can actually read many of the articles without resorting to Google translator, which makes me feel very good about my language skills :).

But I also think ISU got too greedy as was pointed out in a previous post and they hurt themselves along with skating fans..
Good to see that you are using the "I think" form. Now can you explain what would be the advantage if the ISU got too greedy? Did they pocket the money? Did they give it away to lesser Feds? In essence, how would the ISU cause such a problem and not USFS and NBC?

TV shows run on ratings. The ISU can not up the ratings for American viewers. American viewers have to show more interest in the programs and sales of the sponors must go up. We are not in a socialistic society in the US. Money talks.
