Winter Olympics

Lately, we've been watching the Winter Olympic games on TV and for some reason my gf always feels the need to add some sort of commentary on the respective performances as if she were one of the judges. For instance, with the pairs and individual figure skating program she will constantly declare her own scores even though she can't differentiate a triple axel from a triple salchow. Her technical analysis of each performance is summarized by how many times the skater falls; "Oh no, that wasn't good, he fell on the jump. He won't get 1st place." I'm convinced her scores are based on the skater's attire anyway.
