I think it is the Russian version of K-Mart
What Komrades mean
I think Weir has enough fans in Asia and maybe Europe he doesn't need SOI which probably doesn't want him for many reasons, the chief two being a) his management b) his ..... demeanour which glorifies everything Scott Hamilton has fought against in male figure skating for .... how many years now?
If he skated to Otanal and My Way sure. But the kids and the over 65 crowd that frequent these shows do not appreciate Gaga or whatever outragous music/ costume he will pull out next.
Perhaps the reason Johnny's not on SOI is because of money issues. Johnny wants top SOI dollar and they want to pay him a lot less. They can't find middle ground. Johnny can find other ways to make money and SOI gets easier people to manage. The fans lose out.
SOI once had a poll on their website about who they would like to see on tour and Johnny Weir won that poll by a landslide.
funny if Scott is such a homophobe why are some of his closest skating friends gay (and I'm not just going by what he says in his book)? just saying.

And there's the management issue. I think hey'll only hire a non IMG skater who's got a better hardware collection than Weir.
if you're phobic you don't do it, it's a phobia... "homophobia" is thrown around too much. I just can't seem someone like Brian Orser being friends with someone who supposedly hates something about him - or is afraid of him in a way too strong sort of way. That's all I'm saying.
