You can be raised in a certain way or ‘bubble’ and still change your views or outlook of the world, especially considering they are top-level skaters who actually have traveled around the world. I don’t think most members on this board give other conservative members the same benefit of the doubt when they share their own views
That makes no sense at all

She totally was, I don't know how much of a role she played. I can understand the "we're not horrible people" angle, as they did skate well. But S&P had the gold medal performance that night and to not even acknowledge that is a problem.
There were only nine people who got to decide if it was a gold medal performance that night and five of them didn’t think it was.
The key words were “THAT NIGHT”
I will drink to that,dear. The delusion from some here is sadly out of control.
Thank goodness this competition was not judged under COP (which has RUINED our sport,by the way). Your scenario holds absolutely zero merit.
Preach it sister. The corruption of the judges was more widespread than the triple twist crash landing by the Russians.
The French judge said that she knew her marks were wrong. Therefore there wasn't a 5-4 split that was legitimate. One of the judge's - not Canadian - witnessed the exchange. There were three judges that witnessed the exchange. I always like to have facts Vs just opinions. I simply don't understand your reasoning with this.There were only nine people who got to decide if it was a gold medal performance that night and five of them didn’t think it was.
People have already mentioned S/P's agent suggesting that maybe the warm-up incident was intentional is also I felt like Jamie was talking about their typical schedule in the six-minute warm-up as a way of saying B/S should've known her exact ice pattern down to the second, but who knows.
and still remember reading and loving Inside Edge and Edge of Glory when I was still a pre-teen, but she really amps up the dramatics every chance she gets.Her recent likes and tweet replies are now full-on Q-anon garbage. Like believing JFK is still alive, Trump is still president, and literally liking dozens and dozens of pro-Trump, anti-vaxx, Qanon tweets per day. She has completely gone off the deep end into the Q-cult. The timing of her likes changing to this content match up to when she became almost non-existent on social media.
From Todd Kapostasy, Tara Lipinski's husband, to be broadcast on Peacock & NBC sometime next month: https://www.instagram.com/p/CWW9B9PJKs4/Filming was done in Moscow & St. Petersburg as well as in Strasbourg, France, and Katie McBeath/Nate Bartholomay filmed something for this doc. late one night in a Los Angeles area rink (eta that it was at Anaheim Ice - from her IG): https://www.instagram.com/p/CWTqy5YPeOy/A little sneak peek at one of our shoots for our doc series!This one was so special mainly because of the incredible talent we got to work with. But it was also so magical for me to see our vision of this story come to life through dance. The doc is on the 2002 Olympic judging scandal in the pairs event. REMEMBER THAT?! Get ready to hold onto your hats once again! It has been an honor to tell the story of Jamie, David, Elena and Anton. For the dedicated skating fans, can you figure out what point in history this is for one of our skaters?!
ALSO- it’s been so fun to work with my @toddkap
I feel the same way actually. I lost a former coworker to Qanon. I was legitimately heartbroken.
Truth. It’s an addiction.
My father-in-law is caught up in it. His kids were trying to wish him a happy birthday today, and he just started spouting conspiracy theories. It's so sad to watch.
Surprisingly, I don't think there are exceptions. Just people trying to justify their actions.
I assume you know that is not true?

Sports personality Tara Slone who is on Sportsnet and Hometown Hockey and is professional friends with Craig Simpson, just replied to a tweet containing a screenshot of one Jamie Sale's crazy comments with this reply:
"It's just...heartbreaking" (
So it appears as if there is a big problem here. And it's recognized. The poor kids. Poor everybody. Absolutely yikes..
Yeah, he is clearly posting lots of pro-vaxx content. And his recent hockey fights cancer post with him holding a sign has him sans ring, whereas the previous photos of him on the same occasion in 2016, 2017, and 2019 all have him with a ring (along with a photo in May 2020). (Look at his media tab on Twitter)
