I still watch this sometimes to make me smile

Almost ALL of the current and former skaters and ice dance champions are saying that Virtue/Moir should have won over Davis/White.

Love when this guy snaps

The passion. All I have to say.

Please note that Sid is bashing the judges, not the skaters!

It's one thing to go off on a rant and make an idiot of yourself but I love the fire and passion Sid shows here. Plus he has evidence to back it up. It's not like he was just ranting from personal biases and opinion. Good on you Sid!!!

I got kicked out of class for laughing too hard while watching this today, Sid is the best

honestly this happens in all sports where judges decide the winner

Watched this at least 5 times.

So sad that this could happen. Canada's pair "Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir" will always be the best in our eyes and hearts. They received a world record in their performance, which only lasted about 8 minutes when the Judges gave it too the Americans. Listen to the video and watch all the news. We are proud of Tessa and Scott.

Absolutely brilliant.

I'm not American nor Canadian and I could tell there was something fishy. I wasn't that familiar with neither of the couples and I could tell. Scott and Tessa should have gotten a higher score in the short program, and overall, win the gold.

Without even knowing how all the technical stuff works... Tessa and Scott's performance looked smooth and flowed perfectly. Their partnership is not comparable. Meryl and Charlie are great, I'll give them that. But their partnership just can't compare. It just didn't look quite as smooth.

lol his anger entertains me

I swear Sid don't give a fuck, u kno he's passionate bout his job when he freaks out bout god damn Ice Dancing lol, n thats Y I love watchin Tim n Sid before I hit tha gym, #MYNIGGAZ!!!

Canada deserves GOLD!!!

This corruption is deeper than just ice dance judging. Look at the women's two person bobsled, run #1, first team to run, a Canadian pair, set a flawless run and had no wall touches. Second team to run, Americans, had a start that was only .002 seconds faster and they hit the wall over ten times. Yet for some unexplainable reason they were ahead of the Canadian team the entire run with a consistently increasing lead. The announcers and the Canadian team were completely befuddled as to how it could even happen. Apparently Americans are so great, the laws of physics don't even apply to them!!!

The ISU is corrupt. I've read some blogs about V & M and apparently when one specific US Judge is present, their scores are way down. Yet when he isn't present their scores were great. Now if that isn't something to work with then one has to wonder what the purpose is of the ISU. Its not the performers who are at fault, it is the judges.

Godfather Part 2 had me rolling on the floor

Way to be Sid, A fucking men.

Watching this for the 7th time since it came out 2014; never gets old!

This is amazing... Just amazing. I doubt Sid will ever see this but amazing job. This just made my day :)

Greatest sports broadcasting rant in history!!! Real talk - Tim & Sid is best radio show on planet earth.

Sid is the man....but Tim is a legend!!! Love you guys watch you everyday

I love this so much. Tim and Sid are my favourite.

see ya in hockey America

Sid you are on fire! Love the show.

Virtue/Moir (Canadians) have the better technique and ice dancing skills than the Americans. They crush the Americans in edgework, lines, posture and presentation. I'm neither Canadian nor American.

watching this 4 years later its still hilarious/awesome/true

I completely agree with this. So fucking frustrating why cant anything be done about this?

Sid makes my day! Shared this

Here to relive the glory days

Preach on, Sid!

Any event that is decided by judges should not be allowed, winter or summer games. Think hard, how many times in figure skating does the favorite going into the games NOT win ? The medals are decided long before the games start. The favorite can skate a flawed performance and still win. The whole competition is kinda pointless.

Atta boy Sid. About time someone in media speaks for the masses.

The `making it rain`` comment was epic!!!! Good for him for not towing the network line on this and telling us how he really feels.

30k hits since I heard the show this afternoon. good job.

Watching this in 2022 going through the guide after the Super Bowl. Saw ice dancing on the guide, first thought was this rant.

please guys, make this go viral

That was amazing. Never has so much passion been put into something that doesn't matter at all. I think Sid cares more about this than even the competitors themselves. And the guy's name is Petri Kokko- too good.

Testify brother

I heard you do this on your show yesterday...loved it!!!...Everyone is bashing ice dancing but I'd like to see them get on skates and do the lifts and figures that they do...I too think Virtue and Moir were ripped off large!! their performance was amazing and technical and the americans were not close to the emotion that the canadians showed. I think their was a conflict of interest sharing the same coach!! I loved your Rant!! keep it up for the ladies skate!! :)

I'm not sure about Ice Dancing, but man, the figure skating Team event & Ladies event were both corrupted as fuck. It was so obvious that the scores were very well-cooked! In the team event, skaters from other countries were better than those skaters who represented Russia, but surprise, Russian team won. The ladies event though was the most obvious home-cooking one. The Korean lady was FAR BETTER than the mediocre Russian skater who got away with the gold. Think of Roger Federer being defeated-'robbed' by a junior-level tennis player. Jeeeez! I swear, the judging process of figure skating is disgusting and this "sport" needs to be faced out! No one should support figure skating nor give money nor attention to it.

You go Sid because I would have been in the same ballpark if I had been on your show. I was livid at the whole skating. Did you see the ice when Patrick skated. It was dirtier than an outdoor rink with all the chips and everyone fell in that event. No questions. 100% agree with you. Tessa and Scott were the winners all the way. It is obvious by having over 104000 hits that this is a sore spot with a number of people and that ice skating is important to many of us and is a sport far more than anyone thought.

If it is judged then it isn't a sport.

I agree with everything except for the part saying that ice dancing is a disease. I am a figure skater and have been figure skating my entire life. I understand that edge work and lifts are hard to judge if there is no obvious deductions like falling or stumbling but you have no right to say that we should completely remove ice dancing just because of one corruption. Skaters work hard to become ice dancers and they deserve a chance in their sport.

That was....AWESOME!!!

There used to be "tangible evidence that a is better than b"! It was called the compulsory dance, and the ISU got rid of it to pander to television networks/support less technically strong teams.

Watching it again 😅

Wow...5yrs..seems like yesterday!!!!

I love this guy.

I love tim and sid!

Totally agree with Sid. How on earth is ICE DANCING a sport for pete's sake? Dancing on ice is a sport? Christ Almighty.

Amazing.

Perfectly said Sid. Ice Dance should be pulled from the Olympics.

Love the reference to god father 2

Speak on it, my Brother! Speak on it! "Ice dancing is a whore of a sport run by johns as judges" is the most apt description of this corrupt competition that I've ever heard!

Best Olympic rant ever. His anger fuels my rage to murder people every day!! hahaah

Tessa and Scott won this HANDS DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Any event that requires judging is a second class sport, time and score are the only way to determine true winners.

I watched this live and I was laughing my ass off

Ice dancing judge wow..If only humans could get this passionate about despot poverty..

I don't care what anyone says, this was when the show was at its height. No fancy studio, no big monitors and studio lighting. Tim and Sid as radio guys was their prime.

"This whole sport is a disease" "ice dancing isn't a sport (actually it's figure skating) " seriously?!? Who hired this guy this to criticize this sport?! It's very difficult, I can tell you first hand, it's not easy, no, and he says he can't believe this is a sport! "Baseball isn't isn't in the Olympics, GOLF isn't in the Olympics and you're telling me what I just watched an hour ago on television is a sport!?" Give me a break

Patrick Chan made 3 serious errors - his quad, his triple axel and double axel. Hanyu made 1, but got some credit for attempting and fully rotating a quad jump. That rule of giving some credit is to encourage skaters to attempt quads. Even Patrick would tell you Hanyu deserved the gold So, Alan Scott you do not know what you are talking about.

The Americans were expected to win ice dancing going in, and they did win. Get over it.

lol I still cant believe Sid was able to keep a straight face through this entire act. Dude's hilarious

66 people are with the Ice Dancing crowd.

I agree with Tony Ambrogio's opinion on this. Tessa and Scott should not be employing the same coach (Marina Zueva) as their biggest rivals, no matter how good she may be. The coach has to pick a side.

Preach it.

A score system has to be put in place in order to keep corruption out of any sport. We have seen over and over again corruption at the Olympic level and Ice Dancing is at the top of the list, They need to put in point system or ban it altogether.

Nice homework sid. But...if Canada won the gold would we be having this convo?

What REALLY validates the fact that something is TERRIBLY wrong with the judging is what happened when both pairs skated OFF the ice .... Marina Zoueva (the Russian coach to both pairs) was ecstatic with Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir - their performance was truly perfection and their coach beamed with pride .... When Davis and White came off the ice, it was very obvious that only a cordial hug awaited them (at best it could be described an obligatory warm embrace) - it was SO obvious with whom Zoueva would have chosen for the gold but alas .... corruption permeates it's ugly claws in too many places.

Good job

Ha! ...I have the same pen as he does.

Lol this guy killing me! Hes so into the argument

This guy rules

BEST radio show on SN590/The Score. Suck it McCown!

even though this happened looooonnng time ago. He hit it right on the head. Ice dancing is an embarrassment to the Olympics. One of the most corrupt sports in the Olympics and in sports.

The media becoming the story instead of just reporting it,,,

I thought Ice dance was a Kessel Borrows fight ?????

well said!!!

Can someone get this guy a whiskey sour, and a bucket of Mary Browns

lol simpsons reference at 3:36 . bart's friend falls in love

Ice Dancing Sid's given up on you...

That Simpsons reference was outstanding. I'm not saying it stole the show in this rant, but it should be getting more attention.

YOU ARE ABSOLUTLY RIGHT. BUT YOU FORGOT TO MENTION ABOUT WOMEN FIGURE SKATING EVENT. SAME THING HAPPENED TO YUNA FROM KOREA.

Over 100,000 views in 2 days! So epic!

Hey. Everybody chirping Sids opinion. Shut up a second... He backed it up.

speaking the truth... love it

Keep going to bat for Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir. They need to know 35 million people are behind them.

Don't these guys know that figure skating is "Sport Entertainment"; an athletic spectacle with predetermined results, like professional wrestling?

i was very interested in the first half of this video. personally i thought that Moir and Virtue were the best and should have won gold. but i'd rather not listen to a whine about what is a sport and what isn't i understand that this judging was corrupt but i believe figure skating in a sport. understand that the judging is not always corrupt and those athletes are amazing athletes who work their asses off.

You never hear about corruption in other judging sports like synchronized swimming or some gymnastics, it only seems to happen in figure skating. It also seems to involve the Russians with the Canadians on the losing end.

I applaud you Sid. I agree 100%

The ROFLCOPTER has landed

gotta love sid hahaha

Petri Kokko didn't invent the Finnstep by himself, he had help from this partner. The dance had to be re-arranged from a 2:30 original dance into a compulsory that can be repeated 3x in less than 2 minutes. All the couples had to in incorporate one less-than-a-minute section of the Finnstep into their short dances. The short is worth 33%, the Free Dance 66%. So what did the super expert Petri Kokko Tweet about the free dance: "Congratulations Davis & White for a gorgeous free and well deserved Olympic gold medal. Simply breathtaking! #Sochi2014″ Golly, even though he thought Davis &White were behind in his estimation in the short dance, once he saw the free dance, which he called "gorgeous" and "simply breathtaking" he concluded the gold medal was well deserved. The system now in use keeps the identities of the judges secret, and is preposterous for countless reasons. But hey, the winner of the Men's free skate fell twice, and guys who stood up made up no ground on him. Dane has tangible elements apart from jumps, so tangibility isn't the key to cleaning up the sport ... the key is tossing the ridiculous points system and recruiting unbiasd and honest judges.

You know what grinds Sid's gears? Ice dancing

I had no idea Buddy from Cake Boss was so into Ice Dancing!
