2020 Cup of Russia: Stage II

So we've finished lunch and the cats also had an unscheduled lunch so I can postpone dinner to watch the ladies in peace. What did I miss? Is the stream still sketchy, seemed alright the last couple minutes? What happened to Vika?

Probably her knee. Shortly after the start of the program they had to stop and withdrew.

the stream started sketchy but it's working now, Vika had a knee injury and had to withdraw:frown:
 
Serious question, how do nicknames work in Russia like can you ask someone not to use yours? Like I heard Tarasova refer to one of the dancers Evgeni as Zhenya. Can he tell her "That nickname is for my friends and not the likes of you."

Like I bet she calls Elizaveta T, Liza in which case where does she get off?
 
it's true, anything can happen in figure skating, even a rough team like Kartashova/Karpov can medal...it's just a matter of luck
 
In the replay it looks like Vika is almost crying from pain during the lift..... beautiful lady you did not need to skate today! Go to the doctor, and then go get some rest!

With so many pairs and ice dancers out with injury (or COVID) , is the Russian federation going to make exceptions for participation in nationals? If they don't, I think a lot of their most talented teams may not be present....

Maybe he has a different opinion of her...

Maybe, but the sheer gall of her to use Liza's nickname. Liza, who she threw under the bus. She doesn't deserve the privilege.

And if she ever refers to Plushy by his nickname again she can just go to Hell.

But it’s not nicknames, is abbreviations which to use is very common in Russia.

Hmpf I bet she doesn't let them call her a diminutive I bet the have to call her "Your Majesty"

I'd like to call her a "rude, backstabbing, fatshaming, hypocrital a-hole".
