It was a total outrage...Weir earned a bronze for sure...but you just know those IOC judges were not about to hand 2 podium spots to the U.S. in skating.

The Russian looked on so mockingly and snide when the U.S. anthem was being played. Disturbing disrespect.

I agree - Weir deserved the Bronze for his performance in both the SP and the FS - his FS program especially was beautiful. I can’t believe they placed that one dude who couldn’t even properly tie his ice skate over Johnny Weir. The judges scored him low in both of his programs - I think they just don’t like him.
