YES!! Miki richly deserves the title Athlete of the Year and the acolades of the whole world. Miki is not only Japan's national treasure but she's a world treasure. The Japanese Government should present her with an award of gold and diamonds in appreciation for all Miki has done for her homeland. A "Miki Ando Day" in Japan would be a great idea to inspire young Japanese skaters and boost morale. The road to Sochi goes thru Japan.
