Patrick Chan is no longer a baby although I know many still believe he is based on mother's instinct. For most female skaters, 19 yrs old almost means the end of their careers. Was Kwan spouting out these stupid and childish comments in her 19?
No wonder Chan will never be able to land a clean 3A consistently. He is just a brat.
I like that Chan speaks his mind. It's rare to find such honesty these days. I don't think he said anything bratty or offensive, I think he just spoke honestly about his feelings and I commend him for that. And let's not forget that he's only 19...I think that he is very mature for his age...more than I can say for some people.
So Chan can't say these things, but Plushenko has to right to bash another skater...
Instead of just climbing onto the silver podium, he ran across all three so he could step on the gold medalist podium. And this is the guy people are crying over, if I had my way he shouldn't of got any medal. Such a bad representation of the sport and the Russia Federation!
Just because one skater does it doesn't mean another skater should. Although, in this case, I fully support the right of skaters to say whatever they want. I'll disagree with some of it, but I care more about what people do than what they say.
Ugh, Chan is at it again:

Can he ever learn to keep his mouth shut. You don't have to say EVERYTHING that you're thinking. "Hey, that dude's nose is big." "I wonder if there's a sale on hot dogs at the market today." "My armpits smell."
Ooh Patrick, you did not! Gurl you in danger. You can piss off the Plushenko and Joubert stans, but you do not want to mess with the Weir-dos. They will beat you to death with their fluffy handbags.
so he unwittingly provided fuel for those who like to stir up controversy ,and those who are wanting to dislike him ; wanting to take him in the worst possible context ; wanting an excuse to denigrate his abilities..particularly if their favourites don't shine in the same areas.Thank-You!
That's just really funny. Patrick is at least a teenager and can get away with some angsty behavior but I'm surprised Plush did that. I still think Patrick seems like a nice kid but maybe I'm biased because I'm his age and know that most 19 year old boys are pieces of work.
