question:
What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Evgenia Medvedeva Evgenia ? Russian figure skater  Evgenia Medvedeva  told the IOC on Tuesday that its ban on Russian athletes for the 2018 Olympics was unfair.
 Medvedeva  a gold-medal favorite for 2018   said the punishment affects athletes who were not involved in a state-backed doping scheme.
 Medvedeva  also argued that  she  could not "accept" competing under a neutral flag if given the option.
Russian figure skater  Evgenia Medvedeva  pleaded with the International Olympic Committee Executive Board on Tuesday to reconsider its ban of Russia at the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang  South Korea.
"In 2014  I was 14 years old  " Medvedeva  said  via Ice Network. "I have not even entered the adult national team of my country.
 Medvedeva  also said that  she  can't "accept" competing for a neutral flag. The IOC on Tuesday said some qualifying Russian athletes who have passed several drug tests will be allowed to compete at the IOC's discretion  but they will do so in neutral uniforms.
"I can not accept the option that I would compete in the Olympic Games without the Russian flag as a neutral athlete  " Medvedeva  said. "I am proud of my country  it is a great honor for me to represent it at the Games. It gives strength and inspires me during the performances."
"Everyone has dreams  and you probably already had a chance to fulfill your own. Let me do the same!"  Medvedeva  said. "I do not know if there will be other Games in my sports life after Pyeongchang."

question:
What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity John Loos ? John Loos  who played baseball in high school   recalled Monday how  he  was watching the center fielder move during the Aug. 29 Cubs game against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Wrigley Field when  he  was hit.  He  was not on  his  cellphone   he  said.
âI like the science of baseball  so I tend to watch the center fielder move as a pitch is made to see how they are trying to get a jump on the ball â  John Loos  said. âI like watching the pitch speeds  things like that.â
Wearing a patch over  his  left eye and glasses   Loos  said  he  didnât see the foul ball coming at  him . Through  his  lawsuit   he  wants the Cubs to expand their netting to prevent other fans from getting hit with flying balls or bats.
 Loos  was sitting in Section 135 â overlooking a stretch of the the first base line that extends to the outfield â during the game in which  he  was injured. An adult friend of  his  daughter has ties to the Cubs  which allowed them to get into the game without a ticket.
 Loos  was taken by ambulance from Wrigley to Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center.  He  has undergone three surgeries since then and is expected to have at least two more.
 Loos  said  he  may have to replace  his  left eye with a prosthesis.  He  said  he  can still see out of  his  right eye but has had problems adjusting to light and shadows.
 Loos â attorney  Colin Dunn  said they have not determined how fast the ball was going when it hit  Loos   though he has seen video of the incident on social media.
 John Loos  remains a Cubs fan  but  he  has no plans to watch any future games from where  he  was hit with the foul ball.
âHonestly  I would probably be at home or at a bar across the street â  he  said.

Neutral


question:
What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Michael Case ? Amtrak conductor Michael Case  said changes should be made to keep mentally unstable individuals from owning and having access to guns  though he stressed he does not want to infringe on Second Amendment rights.
Edward Klein  80  has been charged with attempted murder and aggravated battery with a firearm. A DuPage County judge ruled him mentally unfit to stand trial. He has been in custody since he shot  Case  on May 16  while the train on which Klein was a passenger was stopped at the station near downtown Naperville.  Case   a Homewood resident  was severely wounded and hospitalized for several months.
On Dec. 18   Case  testified before a DuPage County judge  recounting the moment Klein  of West Allis  Wis.  shot the Amtrak conductor in the torso.
While the judge weighs what to do with Klein   Case   a 46-year-old father of four is still recovering from the near-fatal incident  strengthened by the support and efforts of those both near and far.
In early January   Case  will have  his  third surgery since the May shooting. The procedure is to reconnect  his  small and large intestines. The shooting severely damaged  his  pancreas  and doctors removed  his  gall bladder completely.  Case  said a long scar now adorns  his  stomach.
The shooting and its aftermath radically changed his family life   Case  said. Instead of focusing on school  his children have devoted much of their energy to him  and his wife has taken significant time off from her job to be with him  he said.
Whether  Case  will return to his job as a conductor â he worked Amtrak routes locally  in the Midwestand on the East coast for 10 years â remains to be seen  said  Case . He said he is seeing a therapist to help cope with anxiety that surfaced after the shooting  and he struggles with having people stand right behind him.
Working for Amtrak showed  Case  large swaths of the country  and he said he developed long-lasting friendships along the way. He called Amtrak "a family."
