The guy in the first video is awesome. He did this routine during the Ice Theatre opening where Johnny performed, and it's adorable live.

If Johnny can actually muster himself and do it and come back with a real competitive program, it'll be inspirational. I'd love to see that happen.

Aw, really? I love it, it's cute. But the people laughing make me shake my head. haha

I'd love to see it too, and I've lately felt like the only one! I think if he committed to it, he'd be awesome. :)

I saw that too! :D It was super cute.

Annoying Thing #1: a remarkable accomplishment considering he didn't win an Olympic medal

Annoying Thing #2: flamboyance

Annoying Thing #3: "Third place fell. Other skaters who beat me fell, and I barely beat Nobunari Oda - and he stopped to retie his skate."

johnny ilu but can we just admit that daisuke's programs were better DEALWITHIT.GIF

That said, I wouldn't mind Johnny coming back, although I don't look forward to how federations etc. would treat him. :/

Maybe he'll have transitions this year. ;)

I sort of agree about the falling. I really don't like this "getting your rotations in but not having the technique right or the strength to land your jumps" as being superior bit.

I will say though that I don't think retieing your skates is anything more than an unfortunate accident and I actually give Oda credit for being able to skate so solidy after a shake up like that. It was impressive to me. I love you Johnny, but I think that dig was unfair.

No, I agree that landing the jumps IS important. (see: PChan) I just don't think that Johnny's programs, although he skated clean, should have beaten Daisuke's programs even though Dai fell. That dig was unnecessary.

Poor Oda though. He had terrible luck. :(

TBH, THE ONLY REASON I WANT JOHNNY TO COME BACK NEXT YEAR IS SO WE CAN HAVE VEEKTOR IN THE K&C AGAIN.

Adding my vote to more Viktor in our lives. His sunny disposition always brightens my day. :D

howell_jolly February 3 2011, 19:06:42 UTC

IKR? He always looks so heppi~ :333333

I skimmed the article and took away this quote:

"I think a lot of the Grand Prix was pretty ridiculous with Patrick Chan winning so much and falling all over the place," he said.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA :D

I love Improv Everywhere too ^^ I hadn't seen this before and it's awesome :)

abelfan February 3 2011, 18:09:05 UTC

Not that it's happening, but if he came back, I want Johnny to get new coaches. Kthanx

skate_soar_fly February 3 2011, 19:00:27 UTC

What don't you like about Galina and Viktor?

mussukkainen February 3 2011, 19:42:49 UTC

Amen to that. The most upsetting part of Johnny's book, imo, was Galina insisting on reworking his jumps :(

Please go to Russia and work with Tat, please...

mussukkainen February 3 2011, 19:55:33 UTC

Also, add the obligatory "not that it's going to happen" and "in my dreams" etc... :(
