@anne91276 Might I suggest Pepto Bismal or perhaps Alka Seltzer...boy you rank right up there in arrogance...I make YOU sick so block me ....are you related to this lol...and this WAS another gifted Gold to Mediocre Michelle...oh my goodness...she did stay on her feet in an upright position for a bit so give her the Gold...what a flippin' bloody insult to the true competitors.
@getrealandsee you need some pepto bismol for the gassy stank you reek in here. Your pitiful critique of Michelle Kwan earned you the right as a demented wanna be better than this figure skater. To tell you the truth, you will NEVER be better than Michelle Kwan. You have an attitude problem which you project in here for the multiple amount of time. You annoy people with your crack pot review which has NO place in this forum, Your behavior disgusts me. And you really should learn how to grow up.
@getrealandsee False. Michelle Kwan won and DESERVED this National title! Medicore? This program and performance WAS superior to ALL of the other ladies there at that event. Kwan landed SIX perfect triples with a GREAT 3/3. Most of your posts are really lame.
I wasn't crazy about the music for this program, but no surprise - most of the best skaters have at least one music selection in their careers that leaves you a little underwhelmed.
As for the fall - the judges responded to Michelle's reaction. Clean prior to the fall and clean after. They gave close to what they would have for a flawless skate, but not quite. If other skaters did not make their case on the ice, that's not Michelle's fault.
A little wink...a little nod...and another given gold....other skaters would have paid for that mistake but not Kwan..oh no...rewarded for falling ever so gracefully...those scores are ridiculously inflated and as far as Kwan's respect for Nats...oh, puleeease....she had the gold around her neck before she so much as stepped on the ice...even knowing that she would win she still fell and in others downgraded jumps...but she so didn't respect Nats...or herself
@getrealandsee We can't hear you. You are drowned out by the countless spntaneous standing ovations given Kwan by the vast majority, even at her practice sessions.
@getrealandsee What in the hell are you talking about? EVERYONE at this Nationals made mistakes! Kwan DID have the best program and skate of the night. Six clean triples with a GREAT triple-triple. Inflated? 5.8s and 5.7s for techinal and 5.9s for artistic were correct. Grow the hell up! You're acting like child.

@getrealandsee. Michelle Kwan had the best performance that night. She landed the most clean triples and her great program was head and shoulders above the rest. She deserved all of her National titles (she never won a World or National title with less than 5 clean triples). She did fall but she had 6 perfect triples and a beautiful 3/3. She also skated with speed. A 5.8 for tech is about right for this performance. Your opinions about Kwan "not respecting herself and Nationals" is ludicrous.
I love her control here. Intense & passionate. The short hair suits her best than the long one. I do believe than she was thinner here than recent years & looks better - not than she looks bad but she was magnificient here.. very beautiful.
the 3/3 that she did here was the best she has ever done.
