I write this at 1:29AM, Friday morning. The TV is on channel 5, where the rest of the Sochi Olympics’ Men’s Ice Skating Short Program is being aired live—the longest I have stayed on any TV5 program ever. Michael Christian Martinez has qualified for the free program happening Friday night (tonight), and by the time this piece is published, we will know how high he has placed out of 24 athletes, or if he’s taking home a medal.
