Olympian question

Why do male figure skaters now wear black gloves?

When did this start? and what gives with that?

I can't count the rotations on a quad. It always looks like a triple to me. It's too fast.

because michael jackson (or michael jackson tribute bands) have bought up all the sparkly gloves and only plain black ones are left?

Oh no! I was just watching the replay of the short program a few minutes ago and I immediately thought - 'oh, so gloves are the thing this year....'

What the hell will the women be wearing? White gloves?

and of course, after I put up this post, some chap appeared wearing white gloves.....

And then the last few skaters didn't wear gloves at all, making liars out of all of us.
