Evan definitely deserved the Gold. Thank goodness judging looks at the entire performance and not just how many jumps were done. I was always disappointed when "how many jumps" were the rage. Why bother with the music if the entire routine was simply going back and forth across the rink with jumps at each end? Plushenko's performance was flat, his performance between his jumps was not very deep, and even the jumps he did were not smooth and beautifully executed. His behavior afterwards has been totally disgusting. I was shocked to see Elvis Stojko;s comments but then I remembered that jumping and the quad or not doing the quad was how he got known - and if he gives up on jumping as the primary goal, there's not much left to his own skating talents....
