I can't imagine any rivalry where the skaters are actually close friends, I don't think you could truly have the right mentality if you were great friends...
which is why it always surprises me when I read Scott's book about the pact he made with Orser and Jumpin Joe about the 84 Olympics... I'm sure they toasted each other, but each guy was looking at the others going 'but Im gonna be the one with Gold around my neck'

I have read and heard more than one Brian interview where he has said that he and Orser weren't friends during the Olympics, but friendship developed afterwards. He may not have worded it exactly the same in this interview. I don't say things the exact same way everytime I answer a question either.
No one seems to have abandoned Orser due to his private life that became public. At least not that I've heard of.
