Terry Gannon......

Perhaps it can be explained very simply.

Perhaps Terry Gannon likes Yagudin's footwork better than Pleshenko's. I know I do.

It's my opinion. I like Yagudin's skating better than Pleshenko. So what?

dizzydi, as a specator, you have a right to like whatever you want to like. However, if you were commenting, you would be expected to show some degree of objectivity. Naturally, even the best commentators allow their personal likes/dislike to come through on occasion, but they try to concentrate on the actual merits of each element/ performance.
