If Inoue and Baldwin skate their LP well enough to medal and actually do so, I might be inclined to buy that theory.
Michelle has been nothing but gracious throughout her career. We can't say the same for Sasha, and I hope that doesn't apply to Emily or any of the other up and comers out there. Has Emily been quoted saying something less than gracious about Michelle stepping down? She's got the chance of a lifetime, because if you've followed skating, there was no guarantee that Emily would be skating in Torino in the first place.

Michele Kwan didn't belong on the team. Emily Hughes should have been there all along. Kwan wasn't healthy enough to compete at the event that determined the team and then they put her on the team anyway. Total BS.
