Mathman, what happened to the one who skates the best that night at that time Wins. I didnt realize the winner was percieved to be the best. I thought it was the one who was the best.There is a difference in my world as to what is percieved and what is. Maybe thats the problem with skating, perception is the winner not what is the best is the winner. I also thought the purpose of the COP was to pay attention to details and reward them accordingly. I agree thats the way it is and thats the demise of skating because the fans, causal fans and the Media no longer accept OH thats just the way it is. Sorry to say I do disagree on one point. IT is cheating when the percieved best wins and the best doesnt on that night.
