In figure skating circles, he goes by the name Evgeni Plushenko…
But we knew it was our very own Alexey on the ice last night for the Men’s Figure Skating Short Program!
The commentators said he lacked his usual fire and panache, but the judges thought otherwise. With a total score of 90.85, Alexey—er, Evgeni—is now ranked first going into Thursday night’s Free Skating medal event. Check out the results here.
Good luck!
In related news, our very own Patrick, here going under the alias “Jimmy Smith”, had time in his busy Krav schedule to include some Kyokushin karate training. (What? No burpees?)

Many thanks to our esteemed Patrick “Jimmy” Sanders for constantly exploring new techniques to incorporate into our Krav Maga training.
There were plenty burpees, but Discovery didn’t think they made for good TV, so they were left on the cutting room floor. Too intense for public consumption… Viewer discretion advised.
NO!
