Yo Lysacek, I’m really happy for you, I’ll let you finish...
Yevgeny Plushenko, Russian superstar, lost the Men's Figure Skating gold to Evan Lysacek last week. He's been throwing a fit ever since, including stepping on the gold medal winner's platform during the award ceremony.

Today, he took the whining to another level, and awarded himself the platinum medal.

ETA: Since I submitted this yesterday, Plushenko has denied having anything to do with the medal. Also, I must have linked to the boring article with no comments. Total writeup fail, guys. D:

From what I saw of the men's programs, it seems that lately men's ice skating has become men's ice falling due to them trying for jumps they can't complete. I'm all for giving props if you can do crazy hard jumps and still actually skate the rest of your program.

If they're going to look winded halfway through, not do any connections, and a good third of them bobble crazily and end up on their ass, I'd rather not see quads.
