Peggy Fleming has always been a class act, whereas Sonja Harding, it’s like having Sandra Bullock standing next to Lindsay Lohan, a contrast in styles.

Yes, thanks for saying it. “Lack of grace”, I was trying to put Hardings skating into words.

Now peggy Fleming was a different story as I remember. She was graceful and beautiful. It was at the end of the era of women in women's sports, and the beginning of the "girl" age in women's sports.
Anyway, I lost interest in the Olympics after the Cold War ended. I don't know why I was interested in the first place. I think the media hype affected me.
