The Beijing Olympics will definitely be fair, most definitely.” Ok let's see... thepharoah, dcro and heywoodu 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcro 10,179 Posted February 20, 2018 #382 Share Posted February 20, 2018 That was a joke. Korean fell during the change and slid to the left. How can she slide to the left if you are supposed to go to the right after the change. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orangeman 1,315 Posted February 20, 2018 #384 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Here are the two Koreans on the track, at least half a lap before the hand off. The Korean closer to the inside has not been tagged, yet is clearly interfering with the Chinese, and getting int he way of Canada. Two seconds later, two Koreans still on the track. Now the non-tagged Korean is clearly blocking the Italian skater. I really, really want to make it clear that I am complaining about this not because Canada lost out on a medal (though there is that, too). It's because I really like this sport and corruption like this does not help its image. It already seems dodgy, and decisions like this with no accountability (the judges didn't even have to give reasons for their decisions), really discredits the sport.

De_Gambassi 896 Posted February 20, 2018 #386 Share Posted February 20, 2018 And yet, they DSQed Min-jeong from gold in the first race. Is it really about corruption (more likely pressures of many sorts) than plain bad refering (and possibly rules that need to be adjusted ) ?

Yes = PEN No = According to (judge's) mood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
