then you know what politics is!
this judge must be blind or daydreaming! I have all my bad words for him/her
OK, did the politics help them to score 127 in LP?
Get a life. There will always be politics in this sport. And only one Chinese team will be on the podium in Vancouver. Judging by performance so far, I believe Z/Z already realize that all support from federation is behind S/Z this season.
