[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Other PP here. I don't know who is faulting Kerrigan, but I do think that she made herself rather unlikable with her lack of personality, and her facial expression (lack of sportsmanship) when she won silver, and marrying her married coach.  I don't think anyone ever expected Kerrigan to get gold (if I recall correctly). I definitely did not see Oksana coming, at the time.  She was just so fun, young, spunky, talented and full of likable personality.  LOVE Oksana, [b]don't know what she has done since [/b](I haven't really looked any of these people up).  PP here. Team Oksana, though! [/quote]

Oksana didn't fare too well, either. She moved to this country right after the Olympics and went professional, earning craploads of money from skating in ice shows; at the same time, she started drinking excessively and, I believe, even got arrested a couple of times (either DUI or domestic fighting or something of that matter). I vaguely remember she got involved with some mafia-type guy. Anyway, she must be in her forties now, supposedly in AA, but I don't know what she does for a living, though.

On the topic of Harding vs Kerrigan, I think Harding's main problem was looking like a redneck on ice, no matter her jumping skills.. Kerrigan was no princess, either, make no mistake about it, but whenever Kerrigan took the ice, the audience and judges saw a somewhat refined performance. Not the case with Harding at any point in her career.[/quote]
