Unless, that is, Fernandez (or Plushy) is considered a serious threat at the Olympics. Whatever Patrick does, he needs to skate clean. It's a rare Olympic GM winner who wins with a fall.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6387050766907671577.post-17173118488574250402012-12-13T00:29:53.118-08:002012-12-13T00:29:53.118-08:00keep dreamingkeep dreamingAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6387050766907671577.post-31573608745533007762012-12-12T21:26:36.538-08:002012-12-12T21:26:36.538-08:00As much as I love Dai's skating, I'd rathe...As much as I love Dai's skating, I'd rather see Chan winning the OGM. Dai is by large the better performer, but Chan is by large the better skater. I hope he can put it all together at the Olympics and get the gold by skating two marvelous, clean and technically sound performances.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6387050766907671577.post-62247045555141128162012-12-12T01:00:19.722-08:002012-12-12T01:00:19.722-08:00If Daisuke does not win an OGM, he's one of th...If Daisuke does not win an OGM, he's one of those skaters like Michelle where it would be too bad but where his ability as a performer and artist transcends that.<br /><br />I was really glad to see Hanyu not tucker out in the LP - hope it is a sign of good things to come for him.<br /><br />Too bad Chan really seemed to lose focus in his LP, which he has performed a lot better previously. I for one AM rooting for him and this is coming from a long-time Chan detractor.<br /><br />S/S skated as if it was a practice session and not a performance - so I presume she is still not 100%.

I doubt it matters to him much though in the long run and if he's strong enough not to care what people think, then good for him.<br /><br />I still prefer Dai, Yuzu, and Javi over him, however.<br /><br />Ellenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6387050766907671577.post-13658663830816669792012-12-11T06:55:10.001-08:002012-12-11T06:55:10.001-08:00Yes Kimmie is in the record books but no one reall...Yes Kimmie is in the record books but no one really looks all OG or World champs the same nor should they.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6387050766907671577.post-16768296880694785932012-12-11T05:23:19.770-08:002012-12-11T05:23:19.770-08:00I think Patrick was just being honest, and straigh...I think Patrick was just being honest, and straightforward, maybe that's his personality.

Truer words were never spoken. He's not soup yet. It drives me crazy.
