F/G in danger
Not hardly. Too big of a lead from the RD, lol!F/G in danger
This is true, but once upon a time we had both judging drama AND actually good teams at the top of the standings.I'm out of town and have been unable to watch but literally i love ice dance so much other disciplines may try but they will never reach this level of drama
I've just accepted that skating skills are not as important in the one discipline they should be the most important oopsThis is true, but once upon a time we had both judging drama AND actually good teams at the top of the standings.
perish the thoughtTo be honest, D/S would have won without the fall.
Yeah, plus, Diana's mom is at least half-Georgian, so it isn't as though they lack any ties to the country.perish the thought
So I must say, that I am less emotionally against them than other "Georgian" still training in Russia or calling themselves "Russian girl" - at least Gleb seems like a very decent human in several aspects, including protesting openly against the war which is not something I see a lot of Russians doing regardless of where they live.
Good for him. Doesn't make their results any less disgusting.perish the thought

Is this about their joint "no war" world in palm of hands instagram from almost 2 years ago or has he/they done more since?perish the thought

No idea. I dont follow them. If they didnt it is still much more than 99% of Russians are doing right now. Which isnt really a compliment to them but rather a snark in the other direction but still better than going to a Putin ralley with a Z on your stomach.Is this about their joint "no war" world in palm of hands instagram from almost 2 years ago or has he/they done more since?
I haven't seen anything else from either in the last 18 months, though the fact that they have NOT returned to Russia and switched countries is probably the most that we can expect or hope from them as long as things are the way they are in Russia.No idea.

My standards are not very high if it comes to protests from Russians, I admit. Happy for the smallest sign.
He also got his Green Card so they may be planning to stay in the Us long-term.I haven't seen anything else from either in the last 18 months, though the fact that they have NOT returned to Russia and switched countries is probably the most that we can expect or hope from them as long as things are the way they are in Russia.
Well I asked because you said he protested openly against the warNo idea. I dont follow them. If they didnt it is still much more than 99% of Russians are doing right now.

yes, I agree - that is what I wrote as well. I think that is already more than 99% of the Russians did so I do think that goes into their favor opposed to other skaters who are openly supporting the regime.Well I asked because you said he protested openly against the war
That post was made about 3 days after the invasion. I haven't seen anything since and they must be good with the RUS fed to get that release when others tried and failed. So was there nothing after that 3 days because it didn't serve them well to be vocal?
Just asking because I see it often about how brave and admirable they are because they "protested" and all I see is that one instagram posts. And if that is all there is then people have really low bars for these things.
I don't need to give anything a rest. I rarely talk about this. Just trying to get some sense of logic and reality around this myth that has developed around this couple.Oh, give it a rest. They both still have family in Russia and they didn't get their release until 4 months ago. They surely had to play nice and keep quiet for the sake of that release at the minimum.
