Brian and Yuna's camp should have just released a joint statement. They're both at fault and could have handled the situation better. Yuna's agency could take a cue from the way Michelle dealt with things in a civil manner. But the fanatics will never learn that they're the ones to have exacerbated the matter to complete and utter nonsense.

This must be difficult for the Koreans. Not only do they think very highly of Yu-Na, but they think highly of Brian.

Tonya and Nancy's fault. Go figure. Sorry I don't have a link but this is from a very reliable source who said that they are both secretly working undercover to undermine the judges results at Socchi.

OMG, I can't believe I am reading this. How stupid are you? Which source says that the media are mad at Michelle for not talking more about her coach splitup, so they're going after YuNa/Orser instead? The "Voices In My Head" Weekly? The Tinfoil Conspiracy Hat Monthly? Originally Posted by query5

Looking at the level of hysteria among her haters, I can guess ticket sales to Yuna's LA show is going very well. It's really a positive sign.
C'mon haters crawl out in full force! The more the merrier.
If this pace keeps up, she will take her show to 12 major cities in North America and make a debut stage in Europe by next year.
With a little more help from haters, who knows? She might decide to go to Sochi and win consecutive OGM.

Why is Kwan a choice? I figured it'd be Mao Asada.
Anyway, I don't think any one party is to blame. It was a huge miscommunication and I think both sides misinterpreted things over time, which allowed the situation to nearly get out of hand.

I remember the vote counts were 23 for Kim, 4 for Orser, 17 for both 24 hours ago. This poll is becoming meaningless.

Thanks, that's the first time I've seen that skate from lots of different angles that weren't available in the ABC broadcast. The Eurosport version makes that performance look even better - so free and smooth and flowing. Originally Posted by bardtoob

How could that be, considering its rigorously scientific controls and Gallup-poll approved methodology? Originally Posted by NMURA
