The judges did score her off the scale yesterday. 177.13 is a huge score, close to the world record which Kamila set with a perfect skate, and she won the free here. Her PCS mark was completely absurd. 8.57 for transitions for a program which barely had any. One of the judges gave her 9.75 for skating skills which is a complete joke. She was less than half a point behind Kaori in skating skills is also absurd. She got plenty of GOE for the jumps she landed well.

This investigation can only be done in Moscow.
Looking forward to see ppl in FBI t-shirts in Crystal rink doing something.
Surely WADA will come to Moscow at least. Let's just hope they do their job properly

3 AM? Didn’t the event end around 10 PM local time? What were they doing there for 5 hours later? Eteri was trying to get Sasha to leave the whole time? Or did that include the press conference and other things?
doping tests maybe? No innuendo, just that it is always said it can take some time.

First off thanks to those who were posting here live during the event!!! I forgot how fun it is to watch live figure skating and comment with the GS Gang
Let’s get right into it.....I’d be hard pressed to call Sasha’s reaction a tantrum. I have survived some pretty notable ice rink tantrums firsthand so maybe I’ve grown immune to them. IMO it looked like she tried to find some personal space and once cornered ultimately gave her coaches a piece of her mind. I’m surprised more people didn’t actually enjoy seeing team ET getting roasted so publicly.
Anyway I suspect no one here can possibly understand the true depth of the emotion Sasha was experiencing and just exactly how long it had been building up inside. I know if I’d have had a coach like Eteri and someone followed me around with cameras you’d see me firing off something similar at some point
My off topic advice for Sasha...go ahead and quit skating. Anna Gasser just won her second Olympic gold medal and she didn’t even start snowboarding until the age of 17 after a gymnastic background
. Russia needs a snowboard queen and I think Sasha has earned a much more chilled out environment like that currently in and around Sochi to rest her soul and still quench the fire that lives inside to achieve maxim air rotations.
Anyway......
I actually enjoyed most of the performances I saw and enjoyed seeing so many personal Olympic moments being had out there but nothing warmed my soul as much as seeing Gubanova yet again performing to the absolute highest level she has to offer. I just thought we’d never see this amazing girl get a chance to go to have an Olympic moment no matter how good she got or how deserved one could argue on her behalf.
I’m not scarred from this event and there is much I will remember. . It’s like I’m married to this sport...for better or for worse

There will still be a full investigation into Valieva, even though she’s allowed to compete this week.

Of course, they disagreed. No surprise there.Kremlin disagrees with IOC president Bach's assessment on skater Valieva

I was surprised- yet not- that the IOC president commented. It’s rare- but this has made headlines everywhere. And they’re all bad.

this is just heartbreaking. i teared up. i am grieving for what the people SHE TRUSTED did to her. they destroyed her and made a spectacle of her.

they have dropped her. after the most difficult week of her short life her team has abandoned her. she is a nobody to them after this. she "failed" them.
it speaks volumes this came from the head of the IOC. i hope there will be no more TT after this. Eteri doesn't deserve to coach another day in her life.

And how FBI can 'investigate' it?
- Did you dope Kamilla?
- No
- Thank you, have a good day.
And exactly what one would expect from Russians protecting a coach that produces medalwinners, regardless of her Draconian measures and heartless treatment of children.
