Summary
Ryan goes to the medal ceremony. He can’t not go. It isn’t that he feels obligated to Mike or the team or his image. He does it for himself, because in ten years’ time he doesn’t want to regret not being there. So he goes. He towels off, pulls on sweats, and fights the crush of people that want to pat his shoulder and congratulate him on his career that by some unanimous vote—which hadn’t included himself— is now apparently over.
