Hadn't heard anything about this event being rigged, only the usual allegations about figure skating. I think any judged event is open to these allegations. In terms of this competitor, I'm sorry he didn't "three-peat", just because that would have been cool, but I don't care one way or another. And who's to say he would have medaled in Moguls had he participated? Way to go Bilodeau (and Kingsbury)!

Really good puzzle. Unfortunately the media always manage to distort the truth.

I didn't hear anything about rigging. I heard about this guy having a horrible first run and then on the second run someone came out of nowhere with a trick that couldn't be beat. I haven't watched to see for myself, though.

Nice puzzle!

I am *never* going to catch up with these, after the site has gotten all wonky. Nicely done.

Sean White took his non-medaling like a champ. I blame the Samson effect for his not doing as well. He cut off all his hair!

Ah, yes. The Samson effect. Very good Kristen!

Ha Ha!

I have heard comments both ways. On Twitter I saw people saying the difference in hair affected his performance, but "damn"...
