    Yamaguchi pretty awesome. Some people no lose likeability. I remember Oksana Baiul. She spike the emotion meter in 1988. Then she kinda drama queen. I stop watch figure skating a long time ago. It a solid entertainmen for many year,, though. I don't mind drug testing. But. It sketchy when how you have advance medicine not into performance enhancement? The establishment 'take' on PED, it living in the past.
