And it's so obvious you don't know me at all otherwise you wouldn't be surprised of these jokes I published today! I am used to that!
I'm confused now...... Is the Weaver and Poje moving to Gadbois thing a joke? (satire)

I agree I have no clue...I am merely quoting rumours on various boards. As I said rumour..not fact.
Wasnt it you who said they are not effected a few posts ago. Wasnt it you who has been posting cryptically with huge smiles? Wasnt it you who really wished them to leave Gadbois?
Yes, your English is deplorable!I guess my English is extremely bad... but I never said I wish them to leave Gadbois. I wish them to look to all possible options and pick up the one they think is the best for their career and this new Olympic cycle.
Gaby & Guillaume have a very high level of expectations in terms of skating coaching, program choreography, artistic training & coaching, mental coaching, and so on. Are these expectations compatible with this new configuration and all these couples moving to MTL? Why not, but probably with a different setup compared to last years. If not, then they will probably move elsewhere.
I'd understand if you don't want to reveal who it is of course (but feel free to do so ! ), but for choreo that wouldn't be a "surprise", Stolbova/Klimov have had choreo from Marie-France in the past even though they are a Pair team, not Ice Dance.And there's possibility, according to rumors again, that one russian team also might go to Gadbois. But it's not clear - for training or just for choreography. Alain, maybe you have heard something about it?
or Zagorski guerreiro, after all Tiffany is a friend of Gabby !!!I'd understand if you don't want to reveal who it is of course (but feel free to do so ! ), but for choreo that wouldn't be a "surprise", Stolbova/Klimov have had choreo from Marie-France in the past even though they are a Pair team, not Ice Dance.
... My pop-corn stash is empty (thanks Evgenia) so if you're telling me someone like Stepanova/Bukin move there, I'll have to buy 3 more tons of it, and I'd rather be prepared. My bank account agrees.
Who also are P/C's good mates.or Zagorski guerreiro
Well, they discussed it openly, so I see no problem in saying their names. Rumor is about Skoptsova/Aleshin, but it is very vague rumor.I'd understand if you don't want to reveal who it is of course (but feel free to do so ! ), but for choreo that wouldn't be a "surprise", Stolbova/Klimov have had choreo from Marie-France in the past even though they are a Pair team, not Ice Dance.

If it's vague, it's fine then, but choreo would definitely make sense for them - especially for the Junior/Senior transition (even though they look like Seniors already, at least to me).Well, they discussed it openly, so I see no problem in saying their names.

Reading the past few posts has made me more confused than before. So the Weaver/Poje rumor was just a joke? P/C moving to Zueva was just repeated from a random post somewhere?

Thanks Iris, I'll keep that in mind... next to the 2456 couples training there, one more, one less...
We're all taking a trip to Gadbois. Feel free to tag alongWhat...is...happening...
Costco has a sale on microwave popcorn!I'd understand if you don't want to reveal who it is of course (but feel free to do so ! ), but for choreo that wouldn't be a "surprise", Stolbova/Klimov have had choreo from Marie-France in the past even though they are a Pair team, not Ice Dance.

Montreal is a place where every young people could be very pleased to leave near with a lot of life, arts, etc a little like new york city .. . It could be a very nice reason to try this icedance school too...I am surprised they aren’t retiring but I’m not one to say when skaters should retire. They will likely do well there. Montreal is also an awesome place to live.
Sounds like it's now official: Madison Chock and Evan Bates moved to Gadbois... And so did Kaitlyn Weaver and Andrew Poje (I don't know if you guys are aware about it)
I guess my English is extremely bad... but I never said I wish them to leave Gadbois. I wish them to look to all possible options and pick up the one they think is the best for their career and this new Olympic cycle.

And the World Championships will turn into Montreal Open. I hope the very brave Gadbois team know what they are doing. This off-season is full of surprises.
How many other sites is there where you post under handle "Alain06" ?Well, I just talked about "a site" having "problems" and nothing else to shortly reply to Anyasnake.
You mentionned that said problems couldn't be solved because the administrators themselves were part of the problem, which was making the situation even more pathetic. I thought you should be made aware that the administrators of "this site" were members here, which meant they could rightfully feel targeted by your not so subtle innuendos. This could lead to unecessary and aggravating fights if they decided to answer, something that FSU is generally not fond of.I mentioned it here because these problems are mostly related to cultural issues.
No kiddingFigure Skating fans are from different countries.
Stating the obvious. I have dual nationality on two different continents. I lived and worked in 4 different countries, I'm fluent in 3 languages and I can understant 4 others. I've visited more than 100 countries in my life and I'm not yet done. I have several degrees, including a PhD in cognitive sciences and psychology. I know a lot about cultural differences, to which I've been exposed all my life and for my entire benefit. and the main reason why people fight on skating forums is universal : wherever they are from, some are 100 % sure their opinion is the right indisputable one. Descartes's legacy : I think therefore I am. People tends to turn unwittingly that famous maxim into : I think, therefore I am right !" Egotism , narrow mindedness, fanatism and a good thick chunk of ignorance confort them in their certainties.This is great of course but it can lead to tricky and unexpected situations, misunderstandings and eventually fights due to big cultural differences.
You'll excuse me but I'll pass the talk. Not to belittle what you have to say. But you seem to always consider people you talk to as very young and uneducated folks. See the professorial tone and your eagerness to explain in details the most basic elements. Occupationnal hazard?? I'm too old for magistral lecturing and too used to be on the teaching chair.I think I will share about this more later on as this is a very interesting topic (and a way to better understand each other), especially during the off season
Tazs'mum will correct me if I'm wrong and things have very recently changed but I think there is absolutely no way Tiff and Jon would train outside of Russia.Who also are P/C's good mates.

Oh Meldee, happy to see you in this thread. We have so much fun and no evil queen around !
