I've missed you, Rina!I posted almost nothing in this thread in the recent three years.
Yes, I do know bad things about Alexei (I mean not some doubtable stories now, but those things about which I’m sure). Today I want to say that I also know enough good things about him. For me good things are not overweighted by bad ones. I mean not only his skating.
Today I feel that I’m strong enough to have my own opinion about a person.
I do remember Yagudin’s friendship with Denis Ten (may his soul be blessed): I mean posts by Denis, their dialogues, their projects. I do like that all Yagudin’s kids grow in one family. I don’t blame those people who didn’t manage to salvage their marriage, I just say that it’s nice to see a harmonious family. I do like that his kids look relaxed and happy.
Actually I’m not going to make a list of such things now.
It seems I can say that there is no skater whom I condemn every time when he or she is mentioned. If other posters are not shy to post their negative opinions, I think I’m free to post something positive or something neutral without being shy.
I can honestly say that I don’t try to watch every new video with Yagudin now or to read every new interview, but I think I’ll do some updates in the first post of this thread (when I’ll find time for that).
I also can wish you friends who would be ready to keep good relationship with you even knowing about your faults.
It's a trick that Averbukh has got familiar with, I believe. And it works great each time.
