Yeah and the whole post implies that Johnny and Evan are equal: And they are not. Evan is a world champion, Olympic champion, and Grand Prix Final Champion. Johnny is none of these things. Of course Evan is going to have more opportunities than Johnny.

I think there is a big question of that to put it mildly. Evan is far and away the #1 U.S skater. It would be wrong to put anyone even alongside him. his record so far trumps any other American man both career wise and of late. Abbott is probably the #2 U.S skater coming out of this season. He did win the last 2 Nationals beating Evan both times (Johnny was 5th and 3rd), and while Johnny has sometimes placed above Jeremy in international events, Jeremy still has some international victories- Grand Prix final, Skate Canada this season (beating Takahashi) which Weir doesnt have for awhile. And despite his often dissapointing record at the big events, Jeremy was still 5th at Worlds this year, a higher finish than Weir has had at Worlds or Olympics since 2008.
I am not a big fan of any of the 3 and probably even prefer Weir slightly to the other two, but I dont think this statement of yours is very much in touch with reality at the moment.
Speaking of Evan and his flexjet, I heard Carly Simon actually wrote the song You're so Vain about Evan!

Sorry if I missed this, but can someone please link to the articles where Evan and Johnny both name called?
Ah, FSU! Where thread drift comes to play.
Basically Evan said that Johnny wasn't good enough for SOI while Weir called Evan a "Slore" which is basically a "SlutWhore."
Yeah well, you know what? Elton John is doing a remake of his old song and this time its going to be called "Johnny & the Jets." Take that Evan!
Oh but they're weird and they're wonderful

You know I read it in a magazine

No jet for Johnny, BR. He'll just have to wait for the Lord to buy him a Mercedes Benz.
Evan didn't notice. He had one eye in the mirror as he watched himself gavotte (Point your toe, Evan! There's something funny going on with your feet).
Johnny had some dreams, but they were just clouds in his coffee.
