I don't know if it wise to have any competitions in any sport in the situation world is now, but I have found ladies boring during last years and I still haven't watched ladies in Olympics. There is some days left to watch at national TV's website, I have not been interested. I don't mind about quads, though I don't resist then either. But overpower makes any sport boring. It is not competition any more. Despite that I am sad that athletes suffer from what somebody else is doing. I am more fan of all elements than just jumps. Also remember that ordinary audience is not so fanatic than people in this forum. They go and watch skating and don't care who wins or quads. They want to see clean skates, performances and joy on the ice - and I belong to that audience. The reason I am member of this forum is links to small competitions where are more skaters we don't see in the biggest competitions and also have somebody to talk with, because after my mother-in-law died nobody in my close circle is interested in FS. I watched Russian championships and a part of Euros in ladies, but after that I had empty feeling like I have seen this, it is enough. I doubt we will se Russian championships with English commenting for a while.
This!

Some people are attached to quands and hardly anything else matters for them while me (and as far as I see, those who can't tell the difference between jumps) are simply bored by skaters who do nothing right but jump.
When some people claim they can't enjoy women competition at Worlds without Russians, I know they mean Eteri's girls only - and this is sad. There are plenty of talented skaters out there, they are pure pleasure to watch and a lot of them are actually Russians under other flags. How come they don't matter? I wish more people could see talents that were lately overshadowed by skinny quadsters from the same factory. Now they have their moment and I'm waiting for it.
