Too funny
Joesitz - methinks you are speaking tongue in cheek. You don't really think that ANY skater would throw their investment in skating and/or a partnership away just because another team from the country they represent had made improvment, do you? We can all name skaters who didn't get the gold, but continued to work at it. Guess Rudy should have been running scared... or Todd... or Michelle... even S-L and Victor had to accept less than gold and kept working at it...
LOL, Peter and Naomi quitting because Ben and Tanith were coming up. Big snort. Ben and Tanith would provide reason to Continue, not to quit. A rivalry often results in greater performance...
Peter is a magnificant skater. I'm looking forward to him skating again with another partner. Either eligible or pro. He's still got a contribution to make, got more in him to give to figure skating.
