yeah - a couple of comments about this article which I just linked to and read.

1) Yes, I believe it is an exaggerated about Johnny not be able to get to the podium in an international event. He has been sick or injured at the past worlds and Olympics and I do believe that with good health and a great skate he can certainly medal.

2) I can see the logic about forecasting Lysacek would be first. Johnny's long program has not been perfected yet at the two Gran Prix events. But in a way, I like Johnny being the underdog and I think he feeds off this and will work hard and come back strong in Spokane to win and please us all.
