I can't remember if you've ever answered this. Are you actually Russian, or just a big fan who lived there?

Yeah, I'm a dual citizen. Match fixing would get anyone banned though. In Turkey, he was able to skate by with like a 6 month suspension.

I always wondered if that's why he didn't feature more with the national team. The guy is 35 and was going just as strong as ever until a few months ago.

I was born in Kemerovo Oblast outside Novokuznetsk in 1990 my parents left Russia.

I was raised as an American in California, but have been back. Last time a few years ago. I'm working to move to Moscow or St. Petersburg.

Gokdeniz fits well in Kazan. The culture is very similar for a Turk.

Hey, KOD, I guess you heard about Umut Bulut's father being killed by terrorists. I hate that happened.

Yep, definitely seems like the most stable place with a strong Muslim population in Russia, along with Ufa.

ETA: yeah, I heard about his dad dying in the Ankara bombing. I have also heard that the reason why the derby was postponed was because the idea was to shoot departing fans like in the Paris attacks. Not sure if it's true though.

FC Ufa has recently been promoted, they have Frimpong. Their hockey team won a KHL title with Alexander Radulov.

Ak Bars Kazan is one of the best Russian hockey teams. Alexei Morozov and Danis Zaripov both played for them.

You seem a little angry.

Well good that he's a US Citizen, but...

Russia is winning Olympics 2018. Failing in Sochi was the most humiliating experience of all Russians life.
