ILAsoft.net News: Skating and death of ikonBoard  
World: Skating and death of ikonBoard
| Comments (0)
CNNSI.com - 2002 Winter Olympics - Skating federation to investigate controversial Olympic judging - Tuesday February 12, 2002 07:49 PM: "[...]The results raised anew a long-running controversy over block voting, in which judges have been accused of voting together to favor skaters from their regions, broken down along Cold War lines.
Four of the judges who voted for the Russians are from former Soviet or communist countries; the four who voted for the Canadians are from countries in the Western bloc. The French judge was the exception, going with the Russians -- somewhat ironic, considering that Pelletier is French-Canadian."
Talking about a nice way to say crap about people whose only fault is that they are not from US or from its 52nd state. Not that I think that the decision was fare; I wasn't there, so I cannot say anything, but giving biased explanation of why that happened is plain lame!

On a second note, ikonBoard is no more. A new board will be out soon, but ikonBoard is dead...
