You see? I knew it!
I'm not the only one who thinks so :D I just found this on a forum:
Johnny Weir:
I’ll tell you who was really kind to me, and this is someone whose opinion I highly value: Evgeni Plushenko. We did some ice shows in Spain and France after the Games were over and he said, “Johnny, you’re going to be the next ‘One,’ but you have to do quads!” He was very supportive and nice to me. He would watch when I skated, as would his coach Alexei Mishin who would sit with my coach Priscilla Hill. It felt like a rite of passage to me to be accepted by them.
See? Plush said Lambiel would win at worlds last year and Lambiel did. He also said Lambiel is a better skater than Joubert and so far Lambiel has beaten Joubert in all competitions (including this worlds!). And now Plushenko says Johnny Weir is going to be the next one (by which I assume they mean the next Olympic champion). I think it's totally awesome they have such high regard for him. It goes to show they know good skating when they see it.
Go Johnny! Go Johnny!
