So where are the people who were claiming that fixing is hard or rarely happens these days? Who said that the presence of two corrupt judges alone couldn't affect the outcome of competition? Who spoke of judges being rotated often as a measure to avoid potential corruption in the sport? So much for all of that....

I am right here! Nothing in that article disputes a single point I raised.
I mean. You just LIED about what the article said. One judge on the panel has a history of corruption, not two.
The way you word it the simple fact that the judge is Russian makes her corrupt. Which is stupid....
Also. I never said rigging an event was impossible. I said that rigging in ICE DANCE with the USA and Russian judge was not possible because two judges are not enough to pull it off. You can remain pressed and bothered that D/W out-skated V/M though. It is cute.
I can tell you exactly how Yu-Na lost.
1. Yu-Na landed 6 triples while Adelina landed 7.
2. Adelina had more difficult and faster spins.
3. Go watch the step sequences. Adelina's was far more intricate.
Outside of those areas they were roughly tied in scores. I don't really agree with the result (especially the margin), but I see where the judges were coming from.
crazy
at this being tenths of a point away from Yuna her record 2010 performance
