Hello fellow Plushy fans!
Hope you're all well. I'm still struggling with keeping my cool...it's my own fault I guess for poking my head into the Russian Ladies Thread. In hindsight it was obvious Plushy was going to be criticized in some off-handed way...I should let it go. But when he was criticized for being too over the top and at the exact same time not supportive enough of Sasha it really set me off. Then I look like the bad guy
In other news Mishin's 80th Birthday show is a go! But... Yagudin and Alina Z are also on the guest list. Ugh, I can almost accept Yagudin's invite, he did train with Mishin all those years, but didn't he pretty much downplay any contribution the Professor made as soon as he left? As I recall he didn't even bother thanking the Professor after his Olympic Gold. Whatever.
Alina's invite stresses me out more, so many people hate Plushy for trying to "poach" her. I hate the idea of them been anywhere near each other, it's like an invitation for the haters to rip into him. He brought it on himself I guess, but it still sucks.

Why is she invited anyway? Because she's the reigning Olympic champ? As far as I know Mishin has had nothing to do with Alina at all. Sigh

I guess this might mean the event will be televised.
Anyway Plushy posted about the TV1 Cup (which is set to become an annual event)
The Academy also had a visitor, Olga Buzova, except I have no idea who this person is

Guess she's kind of a big deal in Russia:
Also of interest...Rina R posted a link in her stories to a session with Coachshenko way back in 2019:

apparently Coachshenko can't up with this bit of her program. Nice.

Anyway I better be off, until next time.
