The Russian pair was better -- more fluid, natural.

Must disagree with the fluid, natural comment. You couldn't have been watching carefully.

"Fluid and natural" is a PERFECT description of the Canadian couple.

You might also add, romantic, playful and a joy to watch!

The Russians were good but Berezhnaya has been whining and beeen a poor sport since the descision.

Her partner, in contrast has been a gentleman.

(He's also smart. Her attitude will long be remembered.)

We're in the minority, but I agree with you. I would have given the Russians the Gold. My whole family thought so as we watched.

-- more fluid, natural.

Yep, when that guy almost fell on his butt trying to land that double axel, the technical fluidity was something to behold.
The natural artistry, absoutely spellbinding.
I was in awe!

There is no doubt that the Russian skaters are supurb skaters and, if they hadn't made any errors, they would have deserved the gold. If they skated the following night I'm sure they wouldn't have had any errors just like Michelle Kwan who had an error and got the silver instead.

It's not how good you skate, it's also how flawless. The Canadian couple was flawless.

If I were the Russian couple I would be furious with the French judge. SHE has made the Russians look bad. It's a real shame because they really are great skaters.

My heart just broke for Michelle Kwan too. She is without a doubt the best and had been pinning her hopes on that gold for years. A simple stumble cost her the gold. It's the same with the Russian couple, a simple stumble should have cost them the gold.

The Russian pair was better -- more fluid, natural.

But made countless mistakes.

I can’t imagine what you were watching
