  1. Concur, it was rather telling whilst watching the conclusion of the team event that the commentators, on the coverage that I'd been watching, had up until the Men's FS, been informative and truthful about the strengths of the various skaters and where they could improve and what they were doing well. The female commentator was very impressed by Shun's programme, she even speculated that Shun might get a higher score with the PCS, the male commentator ( 1980 Olys Men's single gold medallist ) answered a very flat "no" and did not elaborate, with a slightly defeated flat tone as if he already knew that the score would not be higher than Ilia and did not wish to say anything undiplomatic, characteristic of my home country's polite and understated style, but it tells you everything really.
  2. Yes, I will be watching and I enjoy the TV coverage of Olys Summer and Winter in general. For athletes and spectators alike , it's the big sporting event of the season and the live coverage this time will be easy from my timezone. The BBC have published the day by day programme calendar and what to look for in terms of daily medal events. I'm UK based and there are quite a lot of good Team GB athletes who have done well at World Championships and X games. I'm always in awe of people throwing themselves down mountain slopes, ski jumps and sled runs etc. I hope that they do well. I realise that many Fanyus, myself included, have mixed feeling about the rink events, not just Figure but also the speed and short track which all come under the ISU governance. imvho, I understand that the Olympic Games is a major international event in which athletes from many disciplines and many countries and territories have the chance to come together and represent their country. The athletes have worked hard, it may be their once in a lifetime chance to be an Olympian and for the athletes and national sporting bodies it is considered one of the ultimate celebrations of sport and it will be interesting and exciting to watch. Clearly, there are certain aspects of the games which have been made at Olympic committee and sporting federation level with which some people do not agree and or are controversial to say the least, but this is not the forum to discuss those issues. Sadly, the world is not perfect and the sporting events reflect those imperfections, even at the highest level. That is not fair and not just, but until such time comes where efforts are correctly rewarded. ( massive understatement ). We can live in hope that one day the Olympic movement will be one of the pioneers which will completely erase cheating, bias and unfairness in competitive sport and ensure that the Olympic Games and the Olympic ideals will be something that people can be proud of.
