Corey Circelli - now going to represent Italy & some other Italian news

This is where we discuss figure skating and skating related items. How did you favourite skaters perform, and so on? However we never speculate on the private lives of skaters, like who might be going out with whom, because that is poison and is not tolerated here. A good guideline is that if it's not publicly announced, in the papers etc. then it's probably best to leave it alone. Is it a gray area? Then write to me and ask.

Whoa...how could he be so foolish (whatever the reason)?! That is very disappointing. I'm sure glad they have these requirements in place.
