Another Kwan/Cohen Article

[Piel]

Found this link at Heather's site. Some of it I have read in other articles, some was new. Mods feel free to delete if this is a repeat.

Thats crap. Coaches dont drop you for one bad competition. I mean, thats not the case at all. Paul Hersh could jump off a bridge for all I care.

No, and that's not what the article is saying. Tarasova has every right to be upset for being overruled in regards to the decision for her skater. It was a fluff comp. Sasha was sick. The USFSA would have let her sit it out. TT wanted Sasha to skip it so she'd be rested and ready for the GPF. I don't blame TT for being peeved.

That's PHIL Hersh.

It's difficult for me to believe a coach would drop any skater, unless there were serious reasons outside skating, e.g., non payment of fees.

I will go more with the skater to leave the coach because in the skater's opinion, there are better coaches than the one being used.
