Who Needs Gold Medals?

You can just brand yourself a Platinum medal winner.






full disclosure: apparently the text under the medals may have been added by someone via photoshop, but its still funny and atleast realistic considering how he reacted to losing gold.

What a douche, apparently that was on his official website. Just listen to this guy.

Finishes it off with the "Platinum" comment.

That's a pretty badass muller he's sporting. I think trash talking in figure skating is hilarious.

Dude, your last name is Plush! And you're a figure skater!

Oddly, I like what he said. I hate figure skating to begin with and he seems to be speaking his mind and perhaps has a valid point.

Come on, the guy pulls off one quad jump in the first few seconds of a 4-5 minute routine, and then looks wobbly on most jumps after that, jumps that the other guy performs and performs better, and he should win a gold medal because of that 1-2 seconds it took for him to land the quad? That's like winning a game of bowling because you throw a strike with your eyes closed in the first frame, even though the other guy routs you in the last 9 frames.

Typical Russian crybaby - a remnant of their Communist heritage - it's always the world against them, poor old Russia (or China lately) not getting the respect they deserve. Boo Hoo. Skate better next time and it won't matter.

In response to the question posed by the Threads question, I would have to say, "Not the Canadians. Fuckin Canucks!"
