Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Unfair judging has been happening for years in figure skating. Maybe the mob wasn't involved then but this is nothing new. I'm glad this has all come about. Perhaps now they can clean up this "sport" as right now it is just a farce.

I watched that competition. It was clear that the Canadians won fair and square, but because of some corrupt people they got screwed. Things turned out in their favour though - look at all of the free publicity they got out of this. They're probably the most famous people in Canada right now.

So they are national heros? One would think that, as time goes by, the Canadians would grow more and more ashamed of that incident. It seems not.

Surprise, surprise....here I am.

First of all I'll do a couple of comments to make myself a bit chill:
1) Bullsh*t.
2) Total bullsh*t
3) Super-mega-purest Bullsh*t

Thank you for your time

Back to topic:
Bul...
Ok. I just watched the interview with Siharulidze. He said smt like this: "We are outraged, they showed our pictures on TV, while the voice saying smt about Russian mafia. Our lowyers already working those bastards will pay for their lie. We'll see them in court soon." And he also said that he don't understand Canadians-" those people should be very happy, it's a gift of fate that they received a Golden medal for nothing. Today it's absolutely clear that their gold medal was a mistake. A dozens of high quality experts watched both programms many times and it's clear for thme that Canadians rceived "their" gold illegaly. So Canadians should be very happy."

Have a nice day

Serb: you haven't said anything about the guy that was busted. Or his recorded phone conversations where he bragged about fixing the events. All you've done is cite some whining skater about how he's going to lawyer up.

Sorry, but I don't find you all that convincing. Russia got its medals in a scam. They are the ones who should be happy they aren't stripped of the gold.
