Hello! Longtime listener, first-time poster. . .
Surprised no one is talking about Scott's comments (http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/breakingnews/canadas-olympic-ice-dance-duo-virtue-and-moir-win-silver-at-grand-prix-final-135407983.html) after V/M were nipped in the free skate by D/W.
"It's a piss-off," Moir said. "Sorry, that's as blunt as I can be. We're not happy, we felt like we laid down a good skate and in our opinions a good enough skate to win and obviously we're missing something.
"It's tough to swallow, especially when Tessa and I have had probably our best fall to date and this is the best start of a season that we've had. It was a little easier to swallow when we weren't doing the training or Tessa was in pain, but now that everything's a go, it's a bitter pill to swallow."
Just a bit of a surprise -- these teams are usually so above the fray. Wonder if this will add a chill to the rink when they all return to practice.
