I agree - Weir deserved the Bronze for his performance in both the SP and the FS - his FS program especially was beautiful. I can’t believe they placed that one dude who couldn’t even properly tie his ice skate over Johnny Weir. The judges scored him low in both of his programs - I think they just don’t like him.

100%. It was all about America not getting 2 on the podium. Skating is much much differently judged than the rest of the sports at the Olympics. It is a snob sport. Kinda like the Westminster Dog Show.
