Russian figure skater Andrey Lutai has been jailed after he allegedly stole a car and drove it while drunk after finishing a disappointing 10th overall in the Skate America competition in Lake Placid.
We are supposed to belive some Russian kid got drunk and stole a car? You know, after all the dirty tricks that the "west" and lately just the USA has played on particularly the Russians within the figure skating realm, the Russians better keep their people on a leash because the dirty tricks abound. Yes, I remember when they had COI slander Yagudin as a drunk, so as to give Todd Eldredge top billing, after which Yagudin won numerous World Championships and Olympic Gold. He was never a drunk, NEVER. Icenetwork.com recently had the unmitigated gall to claim that the French Judge the USFSA and Canada ruined with lies at the 2002 Olympics in Salt Lake City apologized to David Peltier when he was commentating this year in France!!! I suspect what really happened is that Mr. Peltier was not very popular in France, so Icenetwork.com, which is run by this same right wing cabal that pulled of that ruination of figure skating in SLC, just made up another LIE. Anyway, what did Peltier lose? NOTHING. The French Judge lost her reputation, the French Deideret lost his job for a long time, and his reputation. Anissina and Piezerat were ruined despite being such great skaters. Peltier made a fortune, he lost nothing and now commentates for NBC. And frankly, figure skating in the USA has never recovered. No one wants their kids involved in this sport, whether they believe the charges or not, either way, the sport is corrupt. If I were you, or the French or anyone not in their pocket, I'd never be away from protection, including video filmers at all times because these are world class dirty trickers...they never miss a beat. Best of luck to you,. I love Russian skating! When I was a kid and saw the Ponnamarekos do that death spiral I thought for sure they must be from Mars because I'd never seen anything so beautiful.
Looks like a case of two many triples and doubles, these may be good with axels, but no good with axles. But I suppose it was just a blur to him, as he took it for a spin. Anyway now he is on the inside, and that is not a good landing, he must have been off his rocker to have done this in the first place. Let's hope he can pick himself after this, rather than go into a downward spiral. He needs to be on best behaviour now, as the judges will be watching his every move.
