I miss Johnny's skating. Though I am sometimes disappointed in his poor judgement in what he says, at other times what he says delights and amuses me.
Concerning his political position or popularity with judges, he is right - he can't control that. But you can train so well and skate so well that most of the time, you will get your due. I think what he needs most is a well-constructed program that plays to his strengths and maximizes points, and then the mental ability to deliver it with conviction.
I do think he was dissed at the Olympics. IMO he should have been 4th. He skated well, but it was tentative and internal. Get out there and show us what you've got! Perhaps the Gaga will help. He has to train well, get a good program, and then get out there and sell it.
I am hoping.
