2018 Olympic Figure Skating Mens SP

Are you watching NBC online? That sounds like the commentator dude from yesterday, he was frustrating

It was actually Kurt Browning on CBC (who has GREAT commentary overall) who said that. I think in that moment he got tripped up on what he was trying to say; a combination of first holding his breath out of anticipation of something great, half a second of excitement, and then sudden frustration for Yan. When he had time during the replay, he went on to explain that it looked at the launch like he had that quad, but is lacking on the "fight for it" aspect when he hits the ice. I think what he was meaning by "not what he wanted" was to make a comment about Yan's fight attitude being not where he needs it to be, but in the moment it came out as that seemingly silly obvious comment.
 
Beautiful quad from Brendan.

Scared me how close he was to the boards though.

3Lz-3T landed too. COME ON, BRENDAN.
 
I got excited for his music but it’s some stupid remake... though admittedly more suited to skating.
