I'm not defensive, it's just that you've talked about Alissa not deserving to win 2009 Nationals seemingly every single week since it happened over a year and a half ago. I don't find it logical how someone can be so fervent about declaring Flatt and Zhang were robbed after their slow, tepid, and empty performances which didn't even showcase good overall technique. Alissa won the SP by a loooooong way and in the LP she still displayed the best quality of the competition outside of the jumps. The only thing it really makes sense to be angry about is how CoP allows skaters to create a huge lead for themselves after the SP.
