Jan 30, 2008 - a better song for this video would be "Glory Days" by bruce springsteen. Maybe Putin will crank back up the state funded training programs and they'll get some golds - but that'll sputter out w/ the russian economy when the petro dollars end and the russians realize their economy is crap.

Jan 30, 2008 - but i must admit the Soviets were pretty damn good in their day.

Feb 1, 2008 - It´s not about the end of the Soviet Union exactly , the song is about the fall of the Berlin wall in 1989, two years before...the beginning of the end

Apr 8, 2008 - Very close. Gorbachev called an emergency session of Parliament on Christmas night, 1991. The next day, the hammer and sickle were lowered and the S.U. disbanded.

Jun 10, 2008 - Lyssenko is the best of all time, IMO. She had a lot of bad luck when she competed in AA and EF, but always kept it together for her team.

Jul 8, 2008 - i dont think so. . . .

backflipgymnast Says:

Jul 8, 2008 - umm. okay. . . .

eufricon Says:

Jul 8, 2008 - my only point is that everyone has an outdated view of Russia that is so cash strapped that they cannot afford equipment. This is quickly being eradicated under Putin. They are fast regaining their status as a military/economic world power.
