  1. Как всегда притянули за уши,ноги колодки,совсем не интересное детское катание.Сенсации никакой не произошло всё ожидаемо, фальшивое золото,смотреть не интересно.Спорт стал грязным. Борьба с ветрянными мельницами.

  2. Never thought a girl that's a little heavier than the average skater with a tiger striped haircut could win a gold medal. Not to mention dancing to Disco MacArthur Park. I think the Olympics have finally opened their stuffy minds. Maybe next Olympics theyll dance to the Clash, Ramones, Misfits or Depeche Mode. Way to go Alysa.

  3. I sincerely hope that someday she will comb her hair before competitions. A vulgar gold dress =/= a beautiful presentation.
    I'm sick of this American woman and her hypocrisy.

  4. She is half Chinese right lets see if you Americans and Vance have to complain now since you were complaining about the snowboarder who went to play for China

  5. She substituted her ambitious forced younger skating with relentless care free quality skating. It has paid off, but girls with quads and multiple triple axels, will happen again. Meantime we the skating viewers, wonder which has the more appeal. Personally, I await the next female kamila Valieva and it doesn't matter from which country she hails from. But a thousand congratulations to Alysa, so well done!
