I regret to inform you that accusing 9 judges from all over the world are cheaters is not meaningful either.
As much as I appreciate your obsession with me, it deflects from any meaningful discussion of why Adelina deserved to win, which is why I'm here.
Don't exaggerate. It may have only been 4 or 7.
Honey, your obsession with Yuna and Yuna fans and my obsession with you is like comparing a light from a moon to a light from a firefly. FYI, you have yet to provide a meaningful discussion against everything BoP put out on this thread. And please stop making excuses.
90% would be "most", would it not? Not just "most" but an overwhelming majority.*There are over 2 million on one petition. Even if 90% were Korean, that would still be over 200,000 people of other backgrounds.
Try getting 200,000 people to care about the entire sport of figure skating, let alone one skater ... if you can.
*Read all of the threads on GS. You will see many people from many backgrounds believe Sochi Ladies was rigged.
*Read the live thread. You will see nearly without exception everyone mocked the competition as it happened.
*The same thing happened in every live thread I followed on dozens of different forums on the internet.
*Former skaters like Katerina Witt, Kurt Browning, Tim Wood, Dick Button, Gwendal Peizerat, Robin Cousins, and many others all said Yuna won.
*Many current and former judges and officials gave interviews with the media and stated they believed Yuna and Carolina were better, and the results were corrupted.
What did Robin Cousins say about the lady events, mind sharing me the links?Robin Cousins changed his tune after the live event. Not that any of their opinions are proof of anything, either way.
It's ok to change your mind and its not neccasarily contradictory or insincere. The thing is a fair person is willing to concede certain points that they may have interpreted in one way but in hindsight perceive in another. Sticking your guns has merits as well but no more than the ability to adapt and accept a new take on an old situation.

Clearly you are willfully blind in this matter, because replays show Sotnikova's combo was UR, and Kim's Lutz was not.
I think it is literally true that Michelle's view evolved over the few days after the event. Of course this is not contradictory or insincere.

Thank you.
I think YesWay is referring to the BBC live commentary after Yuna lost.
He is the link with the videos: http://skating.livedoor.biz/archives/51877526.html
BBC is the first video, and in fact they do seem to think that there is nothing wrong with Adelina's win.
Myabe it was just not to make a debate live though. I don't know.
"I'm not so sure having seen one of those replays"

When did she outright say Yuna should have won? Because she came out and said Adelina deserved to win. That she even changed her mind shows that the decision was one that could have gone either way.

By the way, Tara Lipinski and and Johnny Weir, commenting live, were quite subdued in the booth after Yuna's skate. Johnny said flat out, "I don't think that was enough." He might have meant "not enough considering the huge scores that Adelina put up." I would be curious to know if Johnny, too, came to a different opinion after reviewing and reflecting.
