I for one really am not "into" all the quads.....I love figure skating for its artistry, passion with the music overall....I miss that component....

I was just thinking the other day....maybe figure skating needs to create an gymnastic/quad division and revitalize the true artistry.

Jason Brown fills that lost element of artistry in my opinion....but he can never will gold now due to the scores with quads.....I just don't find that fair...
