Fair enough. i called them couch coaches. Again, semanticsI guess i used the wrong word. I meant casual consumers of sports on TV, week-end golfers and blowhards that pontificate in sports bars., not so much the professional athletes themselves. (Not that there is anything wrong with playing golf on the weekend.)
I think this thread needs to be closed... it keeps growing and growing and growing and clearly, the reality is that figure skating is figure skating and because of its diverse components, it does attract many kinds of fans. All the fans are good and welcome, but there is no way that all these people coming from different backgrounds with their own baggage and perception will come to a consensus about the semantics
Cheerio !
