Devastating what is going on in LA. My family and I spent 6 weeks in LA last summer. We rented a relative’s house in Venice Beach. Loved every minute of it - the lifestyle is amazing there (beach, biking, hiking, shopping). My kids did sports camps at UCLA (which is beautiful). Drove to Malibu...

Because she just can’t stay off the ‘gram. Anyway, divorce incoming?

Please elaborate re: human trafficking…? My sense of this situation regarding these teenaged almost “child brides”, is that the parents are letting their extreme ambition for their child (re: potential Olympic glory) cloud their judgement in terms of morals, ethics, good modelling/parenting...

Well Med could have had the boxes shipped to her apartment.

Sorry the only thing I’m aware of re: Med and her TCC days is that she was dating Hanyu. The mailed boxes of drugs or “vitamins” wouldn’t surprise me though. IMO Russians will do anything to get ahead.

Have they split?

Other conspiracy theories out there are that she tried to commit suicide hence why there were the twitter posts on Dec 28 in the evening (UK time) showing a convoy of ambulances leaving Sandringham. I’ve also seen reference to organ transplant. The theories are wild that’s for sure...

Is that Putin or is it his double? :sekret:

Isn’t he living and training in the USA?

Although the US dollar goes far in Montreal/Canada with the exchange rate. Why did they leave their old coaches? Did it ever come out as to why? To me they looked much better under them than White/Belbin. Frankly, their programs are boring. I also don’t see much chemistry or IT factor. I...

To me he looks embarrassed to be skating with her. She has improved but still can’t really do a triple jump. He acts like he is better than her and does really come across as a jerk. I too noticed how he removed her arm from around his waist. I guess he’s in it for US citizenship? I also...

I doubt they, and especially Morgan Rielly, are that concerned with recouping wedding costs. He’s made almost $70 million playing in the NHL and it will be quite a bit more than that by the time his playing career is over (he also comes from money). Oh to be a fly on the wall when the lawyers...

This appears to be have been deleted by the Russian embassy but it’s very interesting and telling that they used Serena and Simone. There’s a reason why they didn’t use a picture of Kristi Yamaguchi or Michelle Kwan or Sasha Cohen.

? The Russian apologists never fail to amaze me. Cheating, doping, the list goes on. Their history in sports of this is undeniable. And the IOC and ISU is at the top of the apologists list. Russia is a mafia, kleptocracy state run by a brutal bully dictator with a culture of cheating and...
