Article about the pair who's lying about splitting up: http://en.itar-tass.com/sports/725698

Partner Yelena puts it more succinctly, complaining of an excessively early start to training sessions forcing her to make personal preparations for the day uncomfortably close to the ice. “I even had to use a shared shower room,” she said. LOL

I always hoped that they would get over their obvious dislike of each other but instead of hate/love for gold it's just like they're over it.

At least it's not as messy as their Formspring denials about leaving Zhulin back in 2011 (yet).

What I really want to know is...what does Fedor think about all this drama? So many thought I/K would leave Morozov and jump ship to Canton now that Marina needs a new top team, or that Marina would try to poach Sinitsina/Zhiganshin...at least one of Elena and Victoria seemed destined to be Fedor's next girlfriend. Now if Sinitsina/Katsalapov plan to be coached by Morozov, Victoria seems headed towards being the next Mrs. Morozov instead. Maybe Fedor can come out of retirement and skate with Elena; he can be the Maurizio to her Barbara.

Marina needs to stop trying to make Fedor happen, he's not going to happen. Though I strongly believe that if Marina had been able to persuade Caitlin Yankowskas to switch to dance she would have been a good partner for Fedor

Also from snooping around ~forums apparently Cathy Reed and Javi were a thing? QUE?!

Also I know nothing about Alex and Daniel but they already seem like they're trying too hard. Will have to see how they do in the future, but I'm not really impressed.

I love how the Japanese audience always has a flag of every country. It's so cute

I feel like Yulia is out for blood after she failed to medal in Sochi and Miss Handwave got her gold. But IA, it would be great if Akiko could medal

TBH I hate Gracie's look but I think she has become a better skater over the course of this season. I really just wish she would fix her roots and get a personality but w/e

No I sense that too. There's something about Anna's look and presence on the ice that, if she had skated in the 90s, she would have been called "exotic" by the commentators like they way they always described Butyrskaya--even though both are no less blonde than corn-fed Gracie Gold.
