*sigh* There needs be a "State of Russian Men's Figure Skating Thread," to match the hand-wringing on the US Ladies Thread. In fact, I think I'm going to make one today...Why not? If the other Russian guys remain wildly inconsistent there's really no reason why they wouldn't welcome Plushenko back.
Huh. Now that's actually quite interesting (if it's true, which I doubt, considering the competence of these articles in general. I don't think his health would allow it either.)I was going to say something about his intentions being Euros' - but then I came across this article:

"I'm planning to take part in the Grand Prix this autumn to win a place in the GP series final at Barcelona."
So, who knows, really? No doubt we'll see...
