I can't imagine that next Olympics, South Korea is going to care as much. I honestly as a hard core fan, do not care for the team event. It does dilute the excitement of the Big Events that come later. Plus! The injury question took Plushenko out of competition at the last second! You have to think that had he not competed in the team event, he might have a bit more left in the tank for the individual event. So it might've backfired for Russia overall. You have to think they'd rather he win than the team. Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00390618186041896400noreply@blogger.com
