Quote:This new system sure produces some strange results. Jeffrey Buttle as an example. I can respect his fluidity and musicality. Butsince when does a fall in the short program AND a fall in the long program along with many other mistakes--get you a medal? I guesslast night. If this was the old system, 4 years agohed be lucky to crack the top 12.
Quote:Johnny Weir, on the other hand, couldn't carry the momentum from his short program. I thought Weir skated well enough to medal, but the math didn't work out. Buttle was more performance driven and entertaining. He also had great transitions that tied his program together. Weir's program was more internally emotional, which might have been lost on the judges. I personally felt Weir had the more complete performance.
