You Go, Brian Joubert!

I love Brian Joubert's skating. I think he's one of the most underrated skaters in the sport, and despite a solid short program in Sochi, the former World Champ ended up a dismal and somewhat undeserved 13th place. All signs pointed to retirement for the eldest competitor in the men's field at the Olympics (minus Plushenko, of course).

But no! He's going to give pairs a try, with another former singles skater, Russian Katarina Gerboldt. Why the heck not? You go, BJ, keep the flame alive!

And how can you go wrong when actor and fellow (former) countryman Gerard Depardieu is your advisor in all matters related to gaining Russian citizenship?
