I didnt care for that quote about her being on the public enemy list of Kwan fan club. That was uncalled for.:evil

[egskater0003]

Shizuka is MKF's #1 new public enemy huh? :rollin

Glad to know MKF is that well known that it would be mentioned in an article.:rollin

They don't mean the MKF, thank God...They are speaking in generalities....about the people who support MK...SA is one in a short line of competitors who has bested MK...

[egskater0003]

thanks for the clarification Kwanette. But it's still really funny anyway how Kwan and her fans headline the articles.

When i first read it, I also though of generalities, but it didnt say anything about sasha's fan club. so im thinking that the article was referring to all the MKFers that follow michelle around the world to all of her competitions. we are always shown at her competitions and michelle has even mentioned us in interviews. i think the author could definately have been referring to us! you never see any sasha fans on tv like you do michelle fans.

kwanette is correct ... they don't mean MKF in particular ... just fans of Kwan in general.

Her quote was kind of funny.."who cares about the long program if someone was going to shoot at you."

Thank God it wasn't anything like that. The ISU should really demand an answer from Dortmund on this. This casino guy may be harmless but it shows that athletes are very vulnerable in these competitions, and other more dangerous people may get other ideas.

Kwan said she was surprised when the uninvited skater appeared. She said her first instinct was to "look for a weapon." "I thought safety first and got off the ice. Who cares about the long program if somebody is shooting at you," she said. "It's the kind of nightmares you have. Thank God he wasn't that crazy." :lol

That a girl Michelle...put it all in perspective!! :D
