    Many of the Eastern Euro coaches seem inordinately fond of chocolate.

    For example, see the look of joy here when a famous women's sabre coach was presented with a box of chocolate covered cherries at the Div 1 meet in Richmond:

    Hah, what'd the director do to deserve that glare (it looks like that's where it's directed)? I'd hate to be on the recieving end...

    Probably failed to kneel down, kiss his feet and give him the proper obeisance (bowing and scraping) due any Eastern European who comes over to coach fencing here in the USA.

    Get him something COMPLETELY unrelated to fencing. What else does he like to do? (for example: my fencing coach plays fiddle, an dis in a band)

    How about time off? ( Though if chocolate has that effect on all coaches I might just get mine some... )
