I'm still not clear on the whole Molina thing. This type of situation happens all the time in skating. We need to, as much as possible, trust that most judges are honest because otherwise we will all end up jaded and nihilistic. There will always be personal preference when it comes to PCS. It makes sense to me that a French judge might enjoy P/C the most and the same for Canada or the US or Russia but I choose to believe that most of them judge what is going on on the ice.
I'm still saying that we all need to relax, not gloat, not flop around like dying fish until we see them skate against each other. And as some have said who knows what might happen at the Olympics. Marie-France and Patrice were on track to win a medal in 06 but they fell and had to withdraw.
My hope is that the best team wins. If that's V/M or P/C or someone else then that is who I want to win.
Let the team that can put together the best two dances win.
Yeah, agree. And if some judges are not honest then it's up to the ISU to clean up the mess and they actually did it. This is a key point for figure skating as an olympic sport
So far, since this season started, the judging is quite consistent and in line with the actual performances and that's really great. Scores can vary a bit between panels but in general it's perfectly fine.
