I thought there should be such a thing as journalistic integrity? Being fair and impartial? (Yeah, right.) It would not be allowed in any other sport. And the USFSA wonders why it can't get taken seriously? The whole thing still blows my mind. And that's why I won't subscribe to ice network---I'm not going to pay to support such fraud.

Wasn't it a year ago Scott told us on his fan page to keep an eye on his web page because the new season was right around the corner and it would have the latest? What comes out of their mouths - it's got no connection to meaning at all. They say what they want. The only point is it's lies. Then they also turn around and brag how we don't know them. <br /><br />Dudes, we know you. Seriously, we do. We know plenty.

Trade places to have a beautiful daughter. If I'm ever in a relationship I usually - that doesn't even scan. It should be WHEN I'm in a relationship or when I have been in one, not if ever I am (which is hypothetical or some day-ing it), followed by what he usually does - but you don't usually do something in a hypothetical situation or a situation that hasn't yet occurred.<br /><br />Same here. He's not the partner threatening - if she HAS a boyfriend (unbeknownst to me, if Tessa has a boyfriend, he better treat her right!). He's saying if Tessa had a boyfriend (hypothetical), the guy better be good to her (present tense). He's a train wreck. But they look pretty comfortable lying here. It's second nature. They're not as attractive as they used to be, IMO, as personalities, because that tends to happen when you full of shit it years on end to where it's sort of, yep, that's us and we don't care.oycanadahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14056686007756844095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2583966972735299482.post-64147621658819270732013-10-21T18:06:09.502-07:002013-10-21T18:06:09.502-07:00I hate to say it but I agree.

I bet their preparations for Skate Canada have more to do with concern about where to hide their child and where Cassandra is going to sit, from what angle they'll take her and Scott's picture, and how provocative their pose will be. And given Scott's comment about Tessa's potential boyfriend I wouldn't be too surprised if they started throwing hints about a new guy in her life.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2583966972735299482.post-39496349034001269252013-10-21T18:03:07.624-07:002013-10-21T18:03:07.624-07:00I hear with you with the losing respect for VM.

It's weird that their website almost buries the fact that they are Olympic Gold Medalists. It's nowhere on the home page. If you stumbled across their page, you would never know that they are Olympic Champions. Look at any other champion skater's website, and their Olympic accolades are prominently displayed.

And what do VM do on the eve of their first GP event? <br /><br />First, have Cassandra post as her profile picture the most disgusting grotesque picture they have shown so far. The fans ignored it and continued talking about the skating.<br /><br />Hmm - the sham picture didn't work in derailing the conversation. Because really, who wants the fans focused on skating when it's a skating event. Lame. There's a fake private life to promote. Brilliant idea! Release a trailer of their upcoming documentary they're working on for the sake of posterity. Really make sure the fans turn their attention away from the skating and give them a sampling of the ugly coming their way.<br /><br />Thanks Tessa and Scott. <br /><br />I keep losing respect for you.

People will try to avoid letting women today face Gelsey Kirkland's fate. More athletic build makes sense, considering the very high technical demands of ballets today. Ballerinas not only dance classical and Romantic roles, they're also expected to dance modern/contemporary.

Regular media will just write what its told, like they do when it's skating.

They've had every opportunity, including times some of those around them understood they'd reveal, and they punked out every time. This is their comfort zone. As this is the Olympic season, and their final Olympic season, it seems they're going to use it to show just how above the law, so to speak, they consider themselves, and take it to levels they shied away from before when they still had to live amongst common people in the skating world and occasionally encounter the public without a filter. Now they can go for broke and show what they're really made of.oycanadahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14056686007756844095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2583966972735299482.post-82850528590321656472013-10-21T14:20:21.034-07:002013-10-21T14:20:21.034-07:00The skating is simply the vehicle to feed the rave...The skating is simply the vehicle to feed the ravenous maws in Moirville.

They both get stiff. So that's another great element to add to this season. ACT you guys. They used to just carry on as they pleased, network cameras or no, fans or no, but now they are acting for their own cameras, and as they suck at it, we get stick up the back end Scott and Tessa. Why not. They're magical godlike types. They can up the ante and up it and up it and it will never ever come back and get them.<br /><br />Lying as in denial or mildly shamming is one thing, making an industry out of your lies and hoaxing is different. Going out there to seek and audience for your lying product is different.<br /><br />Furthermore, nobody elected the Moirs to anything in Ilderton, even if the politicians are their boot lickers, so for them to be the self-annointed representatives of Ilderton and the skating part of London, and to do it THIS way, corrupting the impression outsiders will have of the character of the place, is arrogant in the extreme but what else is new.<br /><br />It was obvious to anyone that Worlds in London last year, no matter how much cheese Scott and Tessa eat on camera, was pressure. That's the fishbowl - not the public. The community, the venue and everywhere else crawling with people who want a piece of them and think they know them and put their expectations on them - oh you're going to win! You're champions!<br /><br />There was already obvious tremendous pressure to retain their world title, especially considering some of the trash talk in the media about 2012. And big pressure to win in London.<br /><br />What do the Moirs do? Big foot stomp all of that and prioritize their yellow sweatshirts. That's where they flexed their muscle. Buy the sweatshirts!<br /><br /> So tone deaf - deliberately so. Then when things went badly in the sd and the fd, cry. Of course. Cry. Tremble those lower lips and dab the eyes.<br /><br />They come off like a bunch of grandiose alcoholics who are big talkers and bullies after four drinks and sobbing sloppy messes after seven.oycanadahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14056686007756844095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2583966972735299482.post-72927313119987866472013-10-21T13:43:09.478-07:002013-10-21T13:43:09.478-07:00OC - this wouldn't be so bad if it was aired a...OC - this wouldn't be so bad if it was aired after the Olympics - but to have it air during the month of January/February - wow - why would you want more attention focused on meeting the family/friends rather the actual skating itself.
