Yeah, they preach and practice 'tough love' concept over there in Russia. There is no second place at any given training day, there is only one winner and the rest of the pack.
Finally got a chance to watch. Eteri has always come off kinda scary to me, but maybe that is just a facade. I don't know. I thought it was funny when Medvedeva says that the hockey boys are convinced Eteri beats the girls. Whatever she is doing certainly seems to have worked for Medvedeva and they seem to have a close enough relationship that has produced results. I would not make a good skating mom because I don't know about this business of dragging the girl across the ice. Sounds like it lit a fire in Medvedeva though and made her work harder. Was kinda surprised that Eteri talked about the end of her relationship with Yulia. Was this the first time that either of them addressed it? I would be curious what Yulia's version is.
