If what you're saying is correct (and I highly doubt it) than here's what they were telling the audience: "Yes, they were better both technically and artistically than the Russians, but we're giving the Gold Medal to the Russians anyway." Your theory makes absolutely no sense at all. And for your information, I watched it live on TV, and I saw the judges faces, and they were NOT SHOCKED at the AUDIENCES reaction, Mr. Know It All. Did you even watch it?
Give 'em heck Deej...at least it's only 4 more days to THE BIG EVENT!!! BTW have you seen that hysterical commercial with Jr. on the zamboni??
I watched it, Mr./Mrs./Ms. Know It All, I saw it all live. I thought the judges were shocked to hear booing at the scores, which is very rare.
You must have a really cool TV, you actually could read the thoughts of the judges and figure out why they were shocked huh? As for being Mr. Know It All, if you'll review I suggested a possible reason they were. No all knowingness there, just reminding you that the world is filled with shades of gray.
I don't think he did watch, based on his assertion the Canadians were lucky to win the silver. Also, speaking for him here, disco thought that the ISU guy did a very good job at the press conference today. As Dave Barry would say, "I am not making this up..."
