My Olympic switcherroo/change would be either
1. Brian Orser beating Scott Hamilton in 1984
or
2. Plushenko beating Evan in 2010
or
3. Michelle beating Tara in 1998
I'd fix Javi's zayaked 3S at Sochi. He could double the 2S- and then finally get his Oly medal
First I "liked" this thought, but then it suddenly came to me that given Mao's clean short, Caro would have been WITHOUT medal So I change my mind. At least Mao had 2010:scard8: But, yeah, it would be great if 4 skaters somehow got medals (like, equal score or something)
I wish Elvis had been groin injury and flu free in Nagano to see if he could have pushed for his gold. Can't say that Kulik didn't deserve it because he was brilliant but it would have been nice if Elvis was at 100% to see if he could have edged the gold.
Also, Sasha Cohen hitting her 3Z-3T in SLC.
Yes, that would have been awesome! Where do you think she would have placed? There was plenty of room over Sarah's scores since she didn't receive a single 5.9.
I don't know about Sasha. She was IMO, her own worst enemy. Didn't she fall on COE camel spin at an event? She could go from brilliant to tragic faster than any champion I ever saw. Well, Maybe Maria's 1998 fall on footwork. But, with all of Sasha's obvious talent, it's a shame she didn't have better career from a medal standpoint.
