George Vecsey on the sports pages of the New York Times, February 6, 1994:

By being whacked on the knee, by falling to the ground, by crying in pain, she has subliminally reminded Boston people of, yes, their slain Irish prince, John Fitzgerald Kennedy, who never got to perform the triple axels everybody knew were in him. But by surviving with a certain girlish grace that cannot be totally taught, even by the wizards of Pro-Serv, Nancy Kerrigan has also reminded people of, yes, the woman who carried on when the Boston Irish prince was murdered, Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis.
