Yes, I know. It is only superhuman Patrick Chan who can make errors and receive not only good scores, but out of this world scores. And please spare me re Paddy's oh so superior SS. Even Joubert was over-scored, but for what Patrick did, he should not have been that higher in marks than Joubert. Come on!

Anyway, there's no point to discuss with someone who is so irrational and has such hatred on Chan. Blah blah blah whatever.

some generous scores for the men, different set of panel today ?
while the rest of pairs, ladies and ice dance had low marks

Brezina is working all of it

[Bluebonnet]

Hell, the French crowd didn't even boo him for beating Joubert, and booing people who beat their compariots is a national past-time.

Which means that the audience sees something agreeable in this.

[Skater Boy]

Not Chan's best but he still deserved first - come on folks after seeing Rippon and Joubert's very generous marks. rippon is more artistic but he had far too many mistakes imho to be ahead of Reynolds. The judges must like him and like I said Rippon on a good day could be top 5. Chan was nervous but even on an off day his program is gold. Joubert's unravels without the tricks; he has to use his personality to get pcs for a lot of it. chan can learn from Joubert and Amodio - make something out of nothing and call it pcs. Now Dai, he is the ultimate pc'er will see an artist at work.

Good for Brezina! Should be a new PB! Will he come close to Chan?

[Spun Silver]

Michael was on today! Beautiful performance! Bravo!

[Nadine]

Good skate by Brezina, but I'm more interested in all those secret service type men that have filled the first class section (did Sarkozy walk into the building).

[mikiandorocks]

Brezina rocked! 4 Salchow was beautiful.

[spikydurian]

Good skate from Michal.

[museksk8r]

Now Dai, he is the ultimate pc'er will see an artist at work.

Unfortunately, the judges don't seem to agree with you there.

[SkateFiguring]

Did Brezina cut his hand too?

[periperi]

I could watch Brezina jump all day.

[museksk8r]

Brezina not only came to play, but to kill as well. That kind of skate could launch him into 2nd!

[Bluebonnet]

I think it's the first time Michal has had a perfect quad. And it's 4S.

[blue_idealist]

There's room at the top! Chan's not going to walk away with this!
