Okay, so I haven't watched it yet and am jumping the gun....but the results are up and I wanted to comment.
Yay for D/L - I've been a fan for years and it's nice to see them win one - handily, at that.
But I can't help but be struck, looking at the scores of the various teams, by all of the many deductions. What's up with all the deductions in ice dance this season? As I recall, this was rare last year. D/L, while finishing first, have a two-point deduction, while the Ukranians G/G have a whopping four-point penalty.....what's going on?
