Oh sure he was hotshit years ago but who wasn’t? and he uses that arosmith music to much I mean it sucks he got cancer but peopel get over that. Brian Boitano or Elvis Stoyko now those are grate figure skaters Victor Petrenko too and how can I forget Rudy Galindo? For womans’ skters gotta go whith Oksana Bayul (even drunk) or Kristi Tamaguchi. That Lapinski girl is awfuly good too.
So how come they kiss Scott’s ass on tv? “Oh he’s so grate?” Whatever.
No he’s not THAT great. He overdoes the backflip beacose its all he;s got left since his jumps suck now and he weares dorky outfits when he skates to. Tell me waht he does is so good other then saying “oooohhh my god he’s ssooo gooood!!!” liek on tv.
Even that franch philipp guy would bitchslap him and I don’t think he’s all that.
I agree… he is a good skater, but not particularly graceful (I HATE the backflip) and his routines are rather lame IMO. And it’s true that everyone does seem to worship the ground he walks on.
Kristi Tamaguchi? Ah yes, I remember those. Man, were they ever annoying at school–students would bring them, and that damn electronic egg would be beeping to be fed in the middle of the reading lesson. I confiscated entirely too many. Just call me the Tamaguchi butcherer.
Robin, I agree with you that Scott Hamilton is no longer in his prime, but power to him for still trying. By the way, I looked over your homepage and you seem like a smart young man, but you need to work on your spelling in your posts. It is so bad that it diverts people’s attention from what you have to say. You seem to know how to use a spellchecker because I didn’t notice any misspellings on your homepage.
No I can spell fine I just don;t type very well. If I was writting this on paper it wuold look swell. A freind made my websight beacose I don’t now HMTL so well so I can’t make websights.
And my point was that evryone kisses Hamilton’s ass liek he;s still so great. Ok he was 12 years ago but no so hot now. It’s liek if Brian Biotano misses a tripel axel evryone’s liek “oh that’s terrible” and then old scott comes out skating to “walk this way” and does backflipps and evry juge gives a 10 and the guys on tv go “he’s so great!!!” Whatever. Those peopel don’t now good skating.
You know, I always tend to give a person the benefit of the doubt when they are a little, or alot testy. I figure maybe the person had a bad day, or their dog died, or maybe they are depressed. Maybe they have a loving heart, but they are unable to express this due to an unhappy childhood which has scarred their ability to be a good person. Maybe inside they ARE a good person.
However, you are so offensive, and so illiterate, that I am obliged to advise you to:
A: Buy a dictionary
B: Buy a heart
C: Quit drinking-now!
D: Find a bridge to live under
What on earth does the fact that Scott Hamilton has had victory over cancer have to do with his skating ability? Excuse, me, but you are not capable of even cleaning the ice under the ice the man skates on. He has an ability that you will never be able to emulate, in any walk of life IMHO.
I apologize to the well meaning posters who responded to this “person”-you obviously have more of a sense of humour about these things than I do. I lost a mother and brother to cancer recently. My UncMax is dying of this same disease as we speak. I find this TROLL totally despicable. I repeat, I do not find your responses to him to be offensive,I found them funny. It is IT’S whole attitude that totally makes me livid.
(BTW, I also like Scott Hamilton alot, but mostly I am just offended by this jerk’s choice of flames.)
Sorry to be nasty, but whoever you really are, you are not welcome on MY message board, and feel free to find a way to mess me up on this one. If you can, then I don’t belong here.
Scott whats wrong whith you? I alraedy said I’m a good speller I just can’t type. I didn’t flame Scott Hamilton I said he gets his ass kissed and other figere skaters get critisized for mising jumps. I dont drink beacose I;m not old enuogh to drink yet.
Also I don’t see moderater under yuor name or I dont see it on the straigt dope in the paper unless yuor Cecil (I don’t think so). I now this is the bbq pit but I wasnt talking to yuo so if yuo have nothing better to do then rag on kids I feel sorry for yuo old chap. Oh and your the troll for atacking me unprovocked.
Geez man, give Scott a break. He survived cancer and is still out there. He’s the reason why guys like Kurt Browning are so entertaining. He put figure skating to the
masses like Gene Kelly did to ballroom dancing.
Unfortunately, you are still illiterate, and still without a heart, and you still need a bridge to live under. I am of the opinion that the fact that you are too young to drink does not work in your favor. At least you would have had SOME excuse for your lack of brains, heart and OH WELL, we are obviously not on the same page here. I am not a moderator, and I am much too curvy to be Cecil. (As far as I know; it is entirely reasonable that “he” is a woman, after all.) So, if you are a real person and not a jerk face troll, I do not apologize. You are still a turkey. And I am not a person who flings these derogatory terms around lightly. You reek.
S’okay, hon,
We all know you are a lady, and you are literate too! All of us who matter, that is.
Which is more than this troll can say. I wish Wally was here! In more ways than one.
Scotti
Madder than you can imagine, and not feeling like taking it anymore. (Wish I could figure out how to do the Wally putz smilie, but it is there in spirit
