Glad I managed to catch that. I was wondering - do they zamboni the ice between performances? It seems it would take a long time to do, and if not, is it not unfair on the 12th + skater?

Out of all the skaters, I never would have guessed that it would end up being Kostner and the OTHER russian skater to be threathening Kim for the title... Wow... | ||

Olympic games are usually all about experience and handling pressure. Mao is bad in that and the Russian girl is 15? It's not surprising, really | ||

It's not surprising, really Kostner did pretty bad in her previous two Olympics. 9th in Turino (home ice!) and 16th in Vancouver. She also did not have a stellar season, so her scoring less than a point behind Kim is completely surprising. Well deserved though! I would have placed her 2nd, but the point differential among the Top 3 is so small, it might as well be a 3-way tie. | ||

Well its mother russia. | ||

Although my personal favorite didn't do well today, I'm glad Kim and Kostner delivered and showed that fetus how skating is done.  | ||

I was hoping for Mao, Yuna, and Kostner to all show Julia who is still boss. But even Yuna and Kostner can't erase this disaster from Mao. | ||

Seriously what is it with you and Figure Skating. It's mainly considered as a women's sport and you all get so excited for it ... | ||

After the norwegian smugness of yesterday's win in Biathlon and my subsequent sadness, I'm feasting on the tears of North Americans who think they are good at Boarder Cross ! Go Go France ! | ||
