SOCHI, Russia -- Meryl Davis and Charlie White won the gold medal in ice dance Monday, the first Olympic title in the event for the United States.

Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir of Canada, the 2010 champions, took silver. Russia's Elena Ilinykh and Nikita Katsalapov captured bronze.

Meryl Davis and Charlie White became the first Americans to win gold in ice dancing.
Davis and White won silver in Vancouver, but in the four years since have overtaken the Canadians, their training partners in Detroit.

The Americans scored 116.63 points in the free dance to finish with 195.52, 4.53 ahead of Virtue and Moir.

This was expected...almost always the favorites win...they would have had to skate on their butts to not have won.

1. I've really gotten into ice dancing

Lately because of my ballroom dancing experience. Glad to see they won. Their short program was just beautiful. Can't wait to see the long program tonight. This now is the only figure skating I like

Such sour grapes

I thought Meryl & Charlie were brilliant again. Yesterday's short program was a thing of beauty. I only watched part of today's Free Skate, so I can't wait to watch the whole event. They are so beautiful on the ice together.

Oh and I saw that Derek Hough is their choreographer (from Dancing with the Stars)

3. It is sour grapes...after the short dance, Canadian Dipshit Elvis Stojko

Said the Canadians should have been in first place...I really think they're a nation of whiners...and they have no reason to act superior with their current government.

5. Elvis Stojko - the "Bruce Lee on Ice" who never learned. . .

. . .that it's not all about the jumps.

6. He's a homophobic asshat, too...

He only medaled because it was a weak time in men's skating...he was horrific to watch.
