There's always one or two who come by the awful stereotype fairly. Their bronze medal remains the most dysfunctional Olympic result to my modern memory.

I guess if you're trying to figure out what agenda Andreeva might hypothetically be trying to push, Chock/Bates are the team on the rise right now so it'd make sense to try to knock them back a step; though it seems like a lot of Russian commentary's ire is still directed at Hubbell/Donohue for some reason, even though they've been on the back foot all season already.
I would say all three Canadian teams also looked markedly stronger, though they all had visible or semi-visible errors at nationals, so that's a lower bar. But I really have to credit L/L for how much improvement they've made since the start of the season; if they keep moving at this clip, they'll be in a very good place (which is good for Canada, since they've basically got two years to get ready to be our flagship team).
I don’t think they’ll score badly, but maybe lower. Although teams tend to score really high at worlds..
Not that there aren't plenty of things to criticize about ice dance judging, but there's no particular reason to think the Finnstep calling here was wrong or that it would have been called deliberately wrong to hurt them. They got the only Level 4 step sequence in the whole event, for instance.
You know, you could go through and examine Piper's keypoints yourself, and explain how each one was clean. Then you would have an argument. Then your musings might actually make sense. Of course, that would require knowledge and dedicated understanding, neither of which you've ever demonstrated to have.
lol nobody in the general public knows this that is why ice dance is so easy to manipulate people only see twizzles , lifts when there is a mistake nobody watching on tv can tell you the key points.
Nobody in the general public knows anything about step sequence levels either.
No i like Step and bukin.
I wouldn`t say they did better all three teams performed well its a very subjective sport.
Which translates to:
look its clear there is a lot of politics in that sport i am sure Patrice has better connections among judging panels than say Carol Lane at the end of the day that counts nothing that happens on the ice has anything to do with merit.
Let me guess - they should be beating P/C?
No.
