Michelle Kwan pulls herself out of the Winter Olympic Games! Wait a minute! Don't we have Olympic coaches and trainers who may have seen this coming? NBC saw it coming in January when they offered Kwan an announcing job for the Olympics broadcast. Now what? We have to grab a high school junior from Long Island, Emily Hughes, to take her place at the last minute. Is this fair? Of course not. It shows stupidity and arrogance on somebody's part. You can blame whomever you wish. This is the type of sports posturing that you would expect from a team representing a banana republic. Kwan may have been the best at one time, but when the best is not at her best, she is no longer the best. Bottom line, this event will give the USA a worse showing that it has to.
