I love to see Anna getting attention. She deserves all the praise she can get for having an undefeated season in the Coronairus season. She finished her season by winning worlds without being at her best and doing well at the WTT competition. She deserves praise. So what do I get when I woke up this morning and went to a Russian site? Eteris first big skater Polina Shelepen not only went out of her way to taint Anna's excellence she couldn't wait to say how great Kihiras skating is after Rika bombed another worlds and Schelepen lied about Anna getting 45 in components when she got around 37.Lol! Why would you ruin your post skating career credibility with stupidity and dishonesty like this? Then polina went on to say she didn't watch any of the skates at worlds. Again lol! But I think she got paid something by somebody to stir the pot and taint Anna by knowingly lying about her. The question is who?
I swear I wake up in a good mood every morning and then I re craft like this from polina and my good mood changes last.
Anna was in the kids group at sambo when pollina was the star. All I want for the new world champion is a healthy off season a lot of rest and a lot of peace and no crap from the idiots in the peanut gallery and i did not count on polina being one of those idiots.
EG and the fed need to start unloading on these foolz. It's going to get really bed in the Olympic season especially with KV likely joining Anna at the top of the sport and the attacks on them are going to be unbearable.
Scott, I agree with you, but sadly this is not the first time nor will it be the last that someone comes after Anna for something unreasonable. She will not say anything disrespectful back in interviews or social media, that is not something she ever engages in. It sometimes upsets me when someone this nice is treated like this (see also current Olympic champion), but a conscious choice has been made to not engage with this and I respect them fully for it.
I think what's important is that she has the support of the people around her (family, friends, coaches) and that she keeps her fantastic personality and humble attitude. As she has all along. If she only does these things, she will keep gaining in popularity with the public and continue to get more and more opportunities as well. And the negative naysayers are just bitter people complaining into the void
Also, have a nice picture to lighten your mood:
