In practice, no. But come on...11 point lead? Who can overcome that? This guy would basically have to drop out in order to not win. It's not even funny (or is it, actually??)
This event IS over. At least the Gold medal event is. The competition is now a fight for second place. I fear Irina might do the same in the Ladies' and it will be a total snoozer, a letdown.

Hi Frau! They're just replaying what they missed when they cut away. Lambiel's already skated. Weir's the next up.

Thanks, childfreegirl. I was wondering 'What the heck???" 
One of the guys just said: "Coming up - the amazing Johnny Weir...or 'Johnny Weird,' as some day." Awww.....
GO FOR THE GOLD, CAMILLE-the-Swan!

No prob Frau. I've been typing what Chris and Simon say, but I'm at work, so it may be sorta spotty. Jump in whenever, if you want.

Although it appears that Plush has skated a 'personal best' awesome SP....I can only say "Remember Nice." Nice Worlds....where Plush had it in the bag yet flopped in the LP and landed out of the medals, right?
It ain't over 'til Lucianno Pavarotti sings!
Simon just said, about Johnny: "He's the John McEnroe of skating!"
"the glove is called 'Camille'...he blames a bad performance on it!"

For me the event is over when the last skater to perform is done. I actually enjoy people's skating regardless of their placement. It was a joy to attend Nationals live and see all the "lower" tier skaters that we never saw on TV. It was a given that B$A would win but would I just walk in the stands while others are competing and just come back for B&A? That's nuts.
I am absolutely thrilled for Zhenya and glad that Stephane is in the hunt, but there is no way I would say it's over. Maybe the gold is, but there are still 2 more spots left on the podium!
