1) I am NOT saying yuzu behaved badly at all. I am showing you how anything can be twisted. I am not twisting it myself with bad intentions. I think you are blinded by so much yuzulove that you do not understand the purpose here... false-modesty is something that is quite common with athletes. Deep down, one has to have a lot of confidence to perform at the highest level. Do you really think that Yuzu really believes that he is a shadow when he is the actual Olympic champion? IF he does think that, I am sad for him that he is not embracing his victory. Patrick as a junior is a pretty respectful and endearing kid too
2)jerk and arrogant are similar in my books... so if you are saying that patrick is arrogant and dismissive of other skaters then yup.. you are saying he is a jerk....and "specific lines" oh wow...i mean... if you are saying patrick is so nice and wonderful but a couple times in his life, a couple words he said were off.... i'd be okay with it... but since I joined the forum, all I read is Patrick is this or that... so much hate... for what two lines?? have you ever said anything that could be either inappropriate or misinterpreted??? are you being called up on it everyday of your life?
in any case, and I have said it many times, I like both skaters, what I do not appreciate is that there is a label put on each of them's forehead that says "nice" "not nice" and I think that 1) it's ridiculous as most of we know about them is from medias... 2) very simplistic.... humans tend to be a mix of both

do you really think Yuzu is a saint? that he has never done any bad in his life???? what does he do with all the poohs he gets???? he better give them all to sick kids otherwise he is not nice

do you really think that Patrick can be summarized by two lines you didn't like? come on...
