I have never been so inspired by an athelete as I was watching Sarah Hughes last night. She was simply supernatural and deserved the Gold without a doubt.

And yet TWO judges had her ranked FOURTH, behind Cohen and Kwan who both fell during easier routines, and behind Irina Slutskaya (sp?) who turned 3 triples into doubles and had a bad slip on a landing.

That is the true disgrace of the night. There is no excuse for Sarah Hughes not receiving FIRSTS across the board for her free skate.
