This is so much earlier than I expected. Really I thought it would be like 2012 or 2013.

My god, I know... I can't imagine how he's contemplating sticking around to compete at the next Olympics when he'll be 31 years old. I've always held a ton of respect for him, but this...just wow. Exciting.I think that skating is lucky to have someone who's so committed to the grueling work it takes to remain at such a high level, and they should roll out the welcome mat.
Ignorance. The root and the stem of every evil.Why didn't he do this when it happened. Think he just now realized that it wasn't going to happen just because he's Plushenko.
“Today I wrote a letter to the figure skating federation chief Alexander Gorshkov,” Plushenko said. “I’m asking the ruling body to contact ISU to help me restore my amateur status....more.
he doesnt have to reinstain with the help of his federation, the ISU rule says a skater can apply for reinstatement through his/her federation, meaning just that Plushenko must provide all the papers to ISU through RF and not by himself.

See, Seniorita, Plushenko does not agree with you.... He needed help, LOL.
Earlier Plushy had said he would skate there and his attitude was more like I dare anyone to stop me.
yes it was a discussion about Tony Wheelers blog question and we figured out that since Japan Open is a sanctioned event there is no violation (since there is not pro and amateur status in ISU), he said I m invited, so I'll go, i dont know what the comment about the attitude dont dare to stop me comes from, but it is the norm I guess, plushy is the villain we all know as a fact.
