Thursday Music Break - special Figure Skating Season Edition
Posted by Jill | 7:27 AM
The media may be trying to turn competition for the gold at the U.S. Men's event at this week's U.S. figure skating championships between the excellent but dull Evan Lysacek and the flamboyantly pansexual Johnny Weir as the Second Coming of the Battle of the Brians, but I say they don't make skaters like Kurt Browning anymore.
