[alchemy void]

Although I am #TeamNelliAlex, how can you not love a woman who has a man like this.

I absolutely love this picture but for the life of me can't figure out which second rate Russian dancer this is!?

I'm good. The three skaters I'd have picked are already nominees. I feel bereft not having to to get someone on the list. I think it's because I was such a total Kwan fan during the 90s and early 00s, that no other skaters were worthy of my attention.

I know it's unpopular opinion around here but he was the best part of the Monko/Khaliavin team ..

What's the quota of admision for HoF. Shouldnt it be really restricted like the real Hall of Fames with only 2-3 additions every year?

Or is it going to be another softiebosses showing where even 3rd-4th tier skaters get something!

Read my novel above!

Only 9 or 10 will make the cut for the poll, then the top 3 finishers make the HOF. #WeAreElite

Thank you, finally some real Eliteness from the bosses

I was fearing that at this pace we were going to admit the likes of Biryukova/Korobeynikova/Shelepen by 2018.

Be afraid, very afraid.

Boss and vice are making decisions as to whom to include among the nominees and how to break ties.

I pray to the skating gods that bosses can see the light and realise this is Hall of Fame not Hall of Oblivion.

Regarding that snoozy trio, I'm definitely not the boss you should be worried about...

Prove your level of Kwan uberdom--nominate Karen Kwan for the HoF?

And have to endure the wraith of the enforcer? I think not

Adoniev, with his woman, drinking champagne, speaking English on live Instagram!

talking about how much he loves his girlfriend!

Then the feed crashes, I was the only one watching and they started talking a lot, I got scared and quickly closed the app.

you forget to mention that his shirt is ehm, almost, non-existent.
meanwhile they sing on russian together. I have to go off

Nominations have not been announced; they are just on the shortlist

No Hecken on shortlist, breathe normally!

At least he finally meets his stalker

Speaking of my favorite German ladies, I found this rare gem yesterday. You're probably the only one here who will fully appreciate it. Funny story, I actually remember watching competition as a kid when it was broadcast back in 1997. I was like, who the hell is this woman? Give me Caryn Kadavy skating to Celine Dion plz. But for whatever reason, this program has always stuck with me through the years (well actually just the reveal of the fangs at the end, which Marina herself even seemed kinda embarrassed about). So yeah, after seeing it again for the first time in 20 years, go Marina! Perhaps a HOF nomination is in order?

I really love the S&M hood look she has going on the first minute, too. Here's her tech program, the music is crazy retro perk, I want Leonova to skate to this shit!

That title for her still puzzles me. Among the russian female dance field where being an over the top/fierce dramatic diva, hotter than hell sex goddess, and having huge ice presence with larger than life attitude are mandatory requisites Monko always striked me as a lovely girl but hopelessly vanilla. Only second to Rubleva in terms of blandness.

I totally agree. At least Rubleva nipple slipped at Euros!

ETA: 2.4 million views.

This is the most memorable thing 'bout her.

2nd is losing 'their' olympic spot '10 to da Bob!

That is a good question! To be honest I cannot recall totally!

But I think the more fierce the 'Monko is ' comments became, the more my love grew and my support of!

Let's face it, her reign did not last that long and even I would vlt dare to submit her kn HoF nominations list! Still my queen though!

That's ok. Aprecciation of the underdogs is always valid. I do like Monko (her Frida and 2015 programs are great) and wish she had enjoyed more success than what she did, but a queen/diva she is not.

 

[alchemy void]

Um, wow.

 

[Karpenko]

He's like 17, a lil' chicken with muscles. ask me in 12 years when he grows up.

What about Laurent Tobel? When I think of men's skater train wreck HOF material he always pops into mind! He was so entertaining and yet so awful, but also lovely and fun and at least 7 feet tall!

 

[Jeschke]

Um, wow.

His text and the hashtags

And you have just eyes for his abs! Shame on you!

1. He's 19!

2. He isn't my type, but those ridiculous abs deserve some appreciation.

3. Laurent Tobel is interesting, funny as hell, but he never broke my heart?

His text and the hashtags

An you have just eyes for his abs! Shame on you!

4. I noticed the text, but in my experience, if you're posting shirtless abs/pouty face pics, the heartbreak is minimal.
