Fuck their scoring system. I mean, this has been going fine. But y'all know my stance... I just hate the way they force the elements.
This. Don't penalize the entire body of work because you didn't get enough bells and whistles. I get that it's a short-program performance, so you have to do a preset number of things, but if you HIT that number, why then say it wasn't ENOUGH?
Hmmmm... I wonder if he was coached to go for second place. Like, don't go for a bunch of triples, just do enough... let the rest of the performance win, and we have second place. Because if he fell, that's death. The fact that he got a little woozy coming out of that tight spin at the end might suggest he was having some equilibrium issues at large. Just speculating.
