Amber Glenn skated to “Like a Prayer” during Tuesday’s short program. Now she’s in serious need of one herself.
One of the U.S.’s “Blade Angels,” Glenn was left in tears following a massive error in her skate — she landed a double loop instead of a triple — that left her in 13th place with just the free skate to go.
The 26-year-old was just one of two skaters on the day to land a triple axel, but her blunder was scored as an invalid element for which she received no points.

She also was the weakest link for Team USA in the Team Competition. Too bad she ended up with a gold medal for that.

She failed mightily in the Team competition as well. The men part of the team bailed her out and she was awarded a gold medal, did earn it. Fàil on

From the excerpt:
“...she landed a double loop instead of a triple...”
“...The 26-year-old was just one of two skaters on the day
to land a triple axel...”

It’s a good thing she didn’t go to the straight Olympics. This is the gay Olympics, right?
