Mine, too. Button has truly served skating. One may not always agree with him, and he can certainly be partisan, but he has earned the right to have his own opinions. He was a skater himself--one of the greats, in fact--as well as having been married to one of America's best coaches, Slavka Kohout. He's connected to everyone but beholden to no one. I agree with those who have said that he calls attention to many great aspects of skaters' technique. He is at once the "professor" and the stand-in for the ordinary viewer. We need people like him in skating, not processed sports anchormen.
