Here Menshov's X-ray before and after the injury: http://instagram.com/p/YFS7z-B0L6/#
I guess he published the xrays so journalists wouldn't accuse him of faking an injury.

Here Menshov's X-ray before and after the injury: http://instagram.com/p/YFS7z-B0L6/# He was in K&C on Day 3 with Team Russia, was wearing some kind of a bandage (don't know the right English term) where his arm was resting, but he "covered" all this stuff with the Russian flag, probably in order not to expose a painful view for everyone, and to cheer for his Team as well. Here he is at the banquet. Looks fine!: http://instagram.com/p/YDGBbvCBXJ/# Get better, Man!

??? What does it have to do with anything?
I am always serious. You keep repeating "Chan is a better skater than everyone else" but he is not. Your only proof and defence is "vast majority of fs world" but you give no evidence of where this "majority" was actually voted and calculated. You are not the vast majority of fs world. To bring judges' PCS as a proof is plain stupid because that is exactly what is being critisized in Chan's score and CoP in general. So, take your own advice and get over yourself until you have the real argument. Seriously.
Right after Menshov fell, you could see the way his arm was just hanging there that he had dislocated his shoulder. That must have hurt like the dickens. BTW, manipulating the shoulder back in position requires pulling the arm really hard and that procedure is even more painful than the original injury!
I love both for different reasons.
...
I hope to see both Patrick and Dai on the podium at Olympics. I want them both to make good decisions for next season.
Yes, indeed. Think about what you are saying. When you say the very individuals that the figure skating world appoint to assess him clearly consider him to be an excellent skater and the figure skating world doesn't find him to be an excellent skater, I don't understand how you can be so dismissive. You have no real argument and keep repeating "He's the best skater because judges said so. Judges are always right." But they are not. Just because you love him isn't really bringing anything to the table as to why he is not a booed champion. You know, he is a booed one.Think about what you're saying.

So, articles where PChan's skills are praised should be looked up. But those where they are not, shouldn't be quoted. Classic!Look up many articles about Chan's skating ability and most of them will remark about how intricate and difficult his programs are... And please don't quote some Russian woman in an article.
Only in the protocols. In reality he moves like a 100kg sack on blades that tries to keep the balance. When he falls, the sound of hitting the ice is just like that- a 100kg sack flopped. Too heavy and too noisy. No, thanks.Patrick is the best skater in skating skills as in edge quality, flow, effortless power, steps, turns etc his skating is seamless which makes its beautiful in technique and presentation.
He said to R-media that he got so many gifts from fans in Japan that he had to buy a new suitcase to bring them home. The problem is that he can't carry any suitcase now at all. But he added it's not a big deal because his team members and coaches will deliver his luggage . In his instagram he replied to fans: "I can move my arm a little, thanks God I have another arm!"You rocked the house! Get well soon and please have a safe trip to go home!

Where is your evidence that the figure skating world finds him to be an excellent skater, besides judges's scores?Where is your evidence that the figure skating world doesn't find Chan to be an excellent skater (in terms of skating ability)?
And where are your arguments about him not being an excellent skater other than "when he falls he falls noisy" (because when others fall, they don't make noise?!). And to say he's like 100 kg sack on blades is absolutely delusional - you don't even have to be a hardcore fan of his to know that he has excellent edge work, good speed, and difficult/complex choreography.
Bash him all you want, but whatever, Chan still ends up medalling/winning and it probably drives you crazy because you can't acknowledge the truth that he IS an excellent skater. You've got insults, he's got medals.
