"You cannot always listen to what the skaters want."

Speedy, stop licking Japan's poor injured ass and give it to someone else until they recover! I'm pretty sure the skaters would be thankful not to have to wait all damned summer.

(LOL that was harsh. He just seems really stuck on keeping it in Japan out of some strange sense of honor.)

And I thought the nuclear plant issues were under control now. *goes back to CNN*

THE SKATERS ARE THE PEOPLE THE WHOLE FUCKING EVENT REVOLVES AROUND. NO MATTER WHERE OR WHEN IT'S HELD, IF IT'S NOT AT A TIME WHEN SKATERS CAN REASONABLY PREPARE FOR IT, IT WILL SUCK. WHAT DOESN'T HE FUCKING UNDERSTAND?

Ugh just accept it can't be hosted in Japan this year, guarantee them Worlds in 2014, try to hold it in another city in April or May, or cancel it. Don't keep fucking everyone around like this.

Seriously
Speedskating-if you can skate 1000 meters in March, you can do it in October
Figure skating-despite the fact that I've spent the last year perfecting these two programs, what is learning two more? Who needs sleep not me...

It's ironic that "You cannot always listen to what the skaters want" came right after "Some skaters emailed me they have exhibition contracts in April".
