Never one to leave a bro hanging on his own @Salacious-Crumb , I too will have to exit the closet and come out loud and proud as an avid watcher of women's figure skating for years!
Growing up in Calgary during the late '70's, '80's and leaving for Aus in the early '90's, figure skating was huge and you couldn't help but become enthralled by it.
Like Mr. Crumb, I was never much bothered by the male figure skating as well as the ice dancing (Torville and Dean... meh!). But the women's and pairs have always been enthralling.
Going back to such greats as Kristi Yamaguchi, Michelle Kwan, Midori Ito and my personal favourite, Katarina Witt, a true goddess on earth. The grace and athleticism captures my attention like few other spectacles.
Unfortunately we in Aus are starved of such entertainment with the only relief coming every four years.
Now to just sit back and enjoy... endless replays of Aussies coming mid-pack and continual harping on about the first aboriginal Australian involved in the winter olympics, etc.
Channel 7, worst broadcaster ever!

Perving at figure skaters is gay now?
Must be a Queensland thing.

another night, another rage at Ch7. The whole commentary of the aerials was cringe-worthy. From the bloke not doing any homework and being unable to pronounce any name that wasn't Australian; to ignoring some jumps so they can cut to an interview with an Aussie girl's husband and son in the stands; to any decent jumper falling over being described as "great for australia".
Fuck, it's just so lacking in class, and dripping in jingoism. It's the television equivalent of draping yourself in an aussie flag and heading to Cronulla beach to bash some muzzies.

Was it Phil Kearns commentating?

can't have been. I didn't hear him accuse any Russians (sorry, Olympic athletes from Russia) of cheating. Or even one whinge about the standard of judging.
