Chan, Stojko & other Canadians discuss the men's event

[Raatkirani]

Ugh, Chan is at it again:

Can he ever learn to keep his mouth shut. You don't have to say EVERYTHING that you're thinking. "Hey, that dude's nose is big." "I wonder if there's a sale on hot dogs at the market today." "My armpits smell."

 

[DesertRoad]

Ooh Patrick, you did not! Gurl you in danger. You can piss off the Plushenko and Joubert stans, but you do not want to mess with the Weir-dos. They will beat you to death with their fluffy handbags.

 

[Sk8n Mama]

so he unwittingly provided fuel for those who like to stir up controversy ,and those who are wanting to dislike him ; wanting to take him in the worst possible context ; wanting an excuse to denigrate his abilities..particularly if their favourites don't shine in the same areas.

:agree: Thank-You!

 

[silverlake22]

Instead of just climbing onto the silver podium, he ran across all three so he could step on the gold medalist podium. And this is the guy people are crying over, if I had my way he shouldn't of got any medal. Such a bad representation of the sport and the Russia Federation!

That's just really funny. Patrick is at least a teenager and can get away with some angsty behavior but I'm surprised Plush did that. I still think Patrick seems like a nice kid but maybe I'm biased because I'm his age and know that most 19 year old boys are pieces of work.

 

[UM84]

Because he is the true olympic champion. Evan who?

No, because he has no respect for the Olympics

"If you were watching yesterday, Johnny Weir put the flowers on (his) head," Chan said.

"That's like a big no-no. You don't do that. You have to have some kind of professionalism and that's just kind of- you're making fun and you know, giving it a bad image, I think, in my mind.

"It's something that you don't do. You're supposed to be proper."

So now Patrick "Miss Manners" Chan is giving etiquette advice. What a jerk! As if Johnny Weir cares about what Notorious Bigmouth has to say.

When will Chan ever learn to zip his lip and stop talking about other competitors? It just is rude, stupid and infantile.

 

[zowie]

Actually I agree with him.

Again, so it's alright for Plushenko to do it but not Chan

He has a point though, Plushenko's behavior is beyond embarrassing.

I love it when skaters do funny stuff in the kiss and cry. I loved it when Johnny put the flowers on his head, and after the SP when Lambiel made his toys dance. It was also hilarious at Four Continents when Shawn Sawyer did a funny dance after both programs and pretended to rip open his shirt in the kiss and cry.. I can't think of any other funny things but I don't see anything wrong with doing those things..

 

[BigJohn]

Chan reminds me of Federer. Answering questions with brutal honesty, pretty much unfiltered.

 

[DesertRoad]

Does all condemnations of Chan have to be accompanied by condemnations of Plushenko? If so, I propose that for the sake of expediency, Chan and Plushenko be merged into one entity to be referred as Pluchanko. And all barbs lobbed at one are now automatically lobbed at the other.

How about Patgeni?

 

[Marrymeyunakim]

Chan would do well to shut his mouth. That's etiquette for ya.

 

[ImaginaryPogue]

This thread is hilarious. Wow.

No, but when you all are calling him a brat and acting like he is the only one you do have bring up Plushenko.

Have you ever talked to a 19 year old boy before? They don't really have etiquette. So he talks a lot and doesn't really censor what he says, that's better than him being on the news for being some huge alchie or stoner that gets random girls pregnant. Likely he's very high strung because he has no social life and can't let lose and do normal teenage things so he has angst.

 

[museksk8r]

Chan is such an asshat. I'd like to gift wrap a muzzle for him to use. :scowl:

 

[DesertRoad]

I was exactly like that when I was 19. Now I'm older and wiser, and learned that when you want to talk smack, you do it on the internet anonymously.

 

[museksk8r]

Step away from the computer :sheesh:

I will when Chan steps away from the mic and stops making a fool of himself, but unfortunately I don't see that happening any time soon. :sheesh:
