Canadian Olympics Ripoff

This is what happens when they use volunteers and put them in a subjective role....they have latitude in which they can not only make errors, but make deliberate errors.

That was a major, ugly, and total ripoff. Last night on T.V. they said that the French judge had said that she agreed to trade her vote to the Russian judge for his (or her) vote in another skating event.

OH, REALLY? Well, guess what..........that's better known as an admission to a conspiracy. And the only thing that can overturn a score, or so they've said, is if a judge admits to there have been a conspiracy prior to the event.

Sounds like Canada just "officially" now won the gold in pairs to me (and well deserved....).

Now go do something about it and go get those skaters the gold hardware that they deserve, eh.......

And get those stinking judges replaced!!!!!!!!!!!!! All of them. That's a travesty to competitors who worked for years and years to get to the Olympics. Dang shame....
