The same French Judge that now says it was the Canadians who strongarmed her?

[FixitGuy]

Yep. This judge has also been called "impressionable,and weak-minded" and other things by those "in-the-know" who are familiar with judgeing.

Anyhow this will all pass and skating will go on, hopefully with more improvements in the judgeing.

It's not as subjective as people think.

(If they follow the rules, which this bunch did NOT!)

There was a terrific spread in many of the scores.

She left SLC after giving her version of the story, and didn't mention pressure by the Canadians, just by the Russians. That was the official story. She got home to France and all of a sudden, it was the mean Canadians pressuring her.

Yes, her belated claim that "the Canadians were mean to me" is such a joke, I can't believe anyone would buy it. I tend to believe at least some of the pressure put on her before the competition came from her own French skating federation.
