Mathman said:I was totally PO'ed at Paul Martini on the CBC coverage of the exhibition. He said something like, "Oh how ironic that they are skating to 'the Impossible Dream.' The Olympic gold medal is an impossible dream that they will never achieve."
I was screaming at the TV, "You imbecile, the impossible dream was Hongbo's courageous recovery from a potential career-ending injury, and how their inspiring dedication to excellence in their sport carried them not only to Torino but to the Olympic podium itself! They conquered every obstacle and achieved the Impossible Dream." MM

Did you see Shen and Zhao's throw triple? Totmianina and Marinene ought to be embarrassed.

i also liked Navka/Kostamarov's programm which was so different and interesting to watch...what a way to say goodbye...also Gru/Gon which i didn't like in competition! it was sad that we won't be able to watch some of these great skaters again competing

Paul's interpretation was wrong and mean and cruel. (Mine is right and kind and good, LOL.)Vash01 said:That was just Martini's interpretation, which was different from yours. It does not necessarily mean wrong.
