Moskvina hedged her Olympic bets by taking M&G on. Which lets just say was a big surprise to B&K. Team Moskvina dynamic went from great to terrible. Not a lol-worthy moment to me, just a lot of frustration by Boikova for many different reasons.
I mean, ridiculous. Us against the world. But at least Kamila will get some love. She probably thinks everybody hates her.
I think this rule change was suspended until the 2021-2022 season because of C-19.
That is not what I meant.
Anna's solo triple lutz scored more points then Sasha's quad toe. 8.34 to 7.06
But look Trusova is a teenager a bit entitled, some might even say a spoilt brat. She was the one IIRC that set conditions for Plushenko with respect to Kostornaia et al. She also easily discarded the work done by Plushenko, Ilinykh and Rozonov with respect to artistry. If she had continued on that path and had squeaky clean jumps maybe she would be champion. But, OTOH, there seems to be a real Eteri bonus. I wonder if the message was also sent that Olympic victory meant having Eteri as coach, hence, she left Plushy. So no matter which way you look at it she realistically could only hope for silver or bronze. Is it that the harshness of it all just caused her to have a mental break? It's just crazy for these young ladies. Is this really how it's supposed to be? I don't know what to think. Sport has become something else.....
This sounds more reasonable. Especially with how long it takes these kids to pee because they won't drink water.
Like they were with Anna when she won Olympic Gold?
Omg
what have I just read?! This can't be real
What was Boikova's single one line remark? Ive read about it for over a year but never found what it actually was.
I can't remember the exact words, but from memory it was something like "Congratulations, you have your champions" (said in a sarcastic angry tone).
"Congratulations, you have your champions!" At worlds. Then tossed her accreditation at Moskvina lol.
Well if the current top 3 stand in some orderI can't remember the exact words, but from memory it was something like "Congratulations, you have your champions" (said in a sarcastic angry tone).
Hardly the toddler tantrum about everyone but her having an OGM
M/G with have 2, T/M will have 2 and B/K will have.....
Totally not worth seeing. Boikova was a bitch to Moskvina. She needed to be slapped!
I thought the most horrific thing about it all was that Eteri did not move her off-camera. For that Eteri should be banned for lifeNot surprising. Russian officials don't have a problem with Eteri being horrible to a skater even right after she skates and while she has tremendous pressure on her because of Russian doping.
IOC prez slams Valieva's entourage for 'coldness'
The IOC's Thomas Bach criticized Russian figure skater Kamila Valieva's entourage for their "tremendous coldness" toward her after a mistake-filled free skate at the Beijing Olympics.www.espn.com
"When I afterwards saw how she was received by her closest entourage, with such, what appeared to be a tremendous coldness, it was chilling to see this," Bach said at a news conference on Friday. "Rather than giving her comfort, rather than to try to help her, you could feel this chilling atmosphere, this distance."
Bach's tone surprised Olympic observers -- accustomed to hearing him defend Russian athletes despite the massive 2014 doping scandal -- and drew a quick rebuke from Moscow.
"He does not like the toughness of our coaches, but everyone knows that in elite sports, the coach's toughness is key to the students' victories,'' Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said later Friday.
I looked on Lina Fedorova's page with her interviews, and didn't find this interview, where this is supposed to be from..
Oh please! I just ate dinner, and now I want to barf!
So if Nathan continues he won’t coach him full time?so either Nathan plans to be done or this may not be 100% true.
from here, this interview. Extremely damning: https://fs-gossips.com/for-tutberidze-either-you-are-among-the-leaders-or-you-are-nowhere/
Nathan is going back to Yale. So Raf won't be coaching him full-time. (Unless Nathan has changed his mind. But I'd be surprised.)
If Nathan continues he will do it from Yale with video check ins. But I have a feeling Nathan is done with competitions.
Russia didn't win in 2018.. so they'd have zero if they don't win later today.
Yes, thank-you - I'm so confused by these posts that keep referencing gold medals from 2018 - earlier it was Medvedeva had one, and now Tarasova/Morozov.
They do have Olympic silver
