It's obvious but not blunt.
Blunt means people are speaking plainly. People aren't saying plainly "I'm trying to bring Eteri down because she's Queen of the Hill" but dancing around it. So... opposite of blunt.

Thanks to jack Gallagher’s article, here’s Eteri’s coaching philosophy according to her sister: “Everything is very simple, no need to go deep into psychology, blame it on puberty or problems with coach staff, there are no problems except laziness, reluctance and relaxation. To win, you must follow the regime and train!”
Yuzuru Hanyu's return, Daisuke Takahashi's farewell headline nationals
Yuzuru Hanyu returns to the Japan Championships this week for the first time in four years. After winning the title four straight times (2012-15), Hanyu has missed the last three installments due to illness and injury.www.japantimes.co.jp
That sounds just about right for Eteri. When it comes to her inability to transition older skaters into their adult body, It’s not just about imperfect jumping techniques and imperfect skating skills, which you can work on and improve slowly over time, like many or maybe most of the successful older female skaters have done. But it is her one size fits all approach that doesn’t work for older skaters. Many older skaters and coaches have said the key is to recognize that your body is now different, and you can’t train or skate like you used to. You have to Change not only the skating itself but also the training regime. Fewer repetitions, smarter focus.
I think Zagitova does have to change coaches if she wants to return to competitive skating.
I just want to put it out there that just getting older doesn't make you automatically graceful or elegant. If you want to be these things, you must work at it. We can all name dozens of older skaters who have neither.
It is a well known fact that Sarah Hughes competed one more season after the Olympics. She did not win the Nationals (ever) and in the Worlds following the Olympics she came in 6th. Then went to University (good for her).
a) that comment was NOT about Zagitova but training in general. and it's already been discussed.
very presumption of you..... But you can't help it, you're "with the times" as far as "jealousy for another's success"..If only "jealousy for another's success" weren't the oldest trope... and the most tired one. Take things at face value.
... and the most true. I would suggest that you should take things at face value, but it's pointless to tell that to a person with a special agenda..
You are welcome. I've been registered for ages, just never got around to posting. I think it's a good idea to provide a different Russian perspective. From someone who actually lives in Russia. By the way, the envy trope is only true for those who are strongly motivated by the green eyed monster themselves. As far as Eteri Georgievna is concerned, I am strongly opposed to her training methods. I will leave it at that.... and the most true. I would suggest that you should take things at face value, but it's pointless to tell that to a person with a special agenda..
... but thank you for taking the time to register just to say "something" about Tuberidze, any increase of membership on a social site is good for the site.
95% of negative stuff about Eteri Tutberidze are lies, intentional lies and exaggerations. The other 5% are subjective issues.

Isn't that what they said about Stalin? 95% are lies, 5% are psychological deficiencies of the critics. In any case, I admire your devotion.
Was not it said about Alfred Dreyfus that he was a traitor and wrongly accused of treason, due to convenience of several interested and truly guilty parties? Was not he sent to the Devil's Island, and the whole country believed he was guilty, until people/Zola, made efforts to prove he is not?
Tinami was a regular poster on this forum when Eteri was still learning to use lipstick. Which you would of course know if you were a "regular" - or would you?
True, but I am not so sure whether it is perfectly normal to be so fanatical in her devotion. It seems to me that the intensity of her devotion is crossing the line to pathological obsession.
Etri was born knowing how to use lipstick, she has one-up on me, even when she was racing tricycle under her mother's dining room table...
You don't need to be a message board regular to recognize obsessive behavior. And there is more to skating, sports and life in general than "exceptional results." Respect and genuine caring about other human beings come to mind.
That's exactly what we come here to discuss - respect and genuine caring about other human beings.
It's clearly not what you come here to discuss. But that's a personal choice, isn't it? I view the world of figure skating as something that shouldn't be void of normal values. Such as respect and caring about other human beings.
Polina Edmund's was also dealing with a bone bruise which caused pain when she skated. I cannot remember how that injury coincided with college. Wondering if the injury allowed her more time to focus on college.
