I, for one, do not shed a tear for Michelle Kwan. Sorry if this makes me some mean old monster. She didn't deserve to be at the Olympics. She whined and manipulated her way in. Now she quits because she's still too hurt to skate.
Now, I would feel bad for her if, due to injury, she was unable participate in the Olympic trials and tearfully announced her retirement. I would genuinely feel for her. But to get there as she did and then give the terarful "I'm pulling out of the Olympics" speech, and to hear all the commentators gushing over her......kind of makes me ill.
