Vancouver 2010; over halfway through!
So mens and pairs medals have been given out (my comments on which will come in a giant round-up post after all the events are over)but there is still a drama bubbling between Plushenko and Lysacek. Here are a few articles about Lysacek, Plushenko and the aftermath:
IOC President says Plushenko's behavior only an expression of disappointment - Philip Hersh, Chicago Tribune
The night they killed figure skating - Elvis Stojko, Yahoo! Sports
Timothy Goebel responds to Elvis Stojko’s Rant - Timothy Goebel/Jocelyn Jane Cox, Current Skate of Mind
How Evan Lysacek got ready to win gold - Emma Rosenblum, NY Mag
Lysacek waves off criticism from Russian Federation - Amy Rosewater, Ice Network
Plus the compulsory dance happened last night. Whilst I still wish it had been the Golden Waltz instead, I still loved it! Full results are here. I'm going to call who I want to win right now, and get it out there; Virtue and Moir. Here's hoping! However, thought any of the top teams would be deserving of it after watching those CDs; Davis/White, Belbin/Agosto and of course Domnina/Shabalin really brought it! Original dance is tonight - check out Twitter for updates, live as they happen.
