O Canada!!!

{gold medalists from Canada ~ Virtue & Moir}

Congratulations to all of the ice dancers for wonderful performances this evening! If you know me, you may or may not know that I generally root for my sports teams based on the design and/or colors of their uniforms ~ unless, of course, a friend or family member is on the team.

So, with that in mind, kudos to the gold and silver medalists, but what were the bronze medalists thinking? I cannot even bear to post a photo on my blog ~ yikes and yikes again ~ those costumes were either so hideous and/or distracting it was hard to notice the skating! I guess the costumes aren't part of the rating system ~ lucky for the Russians! Designing costumes for skaters would be a great challenge for the folks to try on Project Runway!

And why were all of the couples EXCEPT the hideously dressed Russians required to do twizzles? There was something terribly wrong with the judging!

Who looks in the mirror and feels good about such dreadful costumes? I hate to even ask what music they chose to dance to. Your post really made me laugh : )

Thank you for not burning my retinas with those Russian costumes again. Those were he tackiest EVER.
