Yo!

How we doing on this blizzardy Monday in New York City? Evan and Tiki on the fan.. Let me just get this started by saying this. I'm done with the freaking snow. I've always been a snow guy. I love the winter. I never want to leave New York. I'm never going to leave New York. But holy crap. And I'll tell you why I'm done with this. Why? When did we realize we were getting two feet of snow? Usually they give us like a week's notice so we can all go to the stores. Buy crap we don't need. Mentally prepare. Dude, I went into something. Like when the USA won the gold, and we'll get to that in a few minutes. Does Sean have his jersey on? No. Sean doesn't have his USA jersey on. I got mine on. Do you? How about that, Sean? How about that? Didn't I call it? Right? Kenny Albert calling him playing or calling Jack Hughes game winner in overtime. USA, Sean. You non-American. I'm American. let's go USA what a win you know what

forget the snow we'll get to it later you're fired up Tiki of course I how could you not I don't

know if I realized I didn't I don't think I realized that we hadn't won since 1980 yeah I don't

it popped up and it was, oh, 19.

How did we not win one in between?

I know we had gotten clothes, maybe got silver or whatever it had been, but I don't

think I'd realized we hadn't won to win in 1980.

And then to win in that fashion was absolutely outstanding and awesome to happen, especially

because we were just talking about Jack Hughes and how it was

hard for Sean to root for a devil when he'd rather be rooting for the Rangers as opposed to Team

USA. So I couldn't help but write you immediately, Sean. How'd you take it then, Sean? Because we did

win the gold. I know you were rooting for Team USA despite not being that into this. Did it bother you that missing tooth Jack Hughes was an American hero? It didn't bother me until he started to get interviewed and he was saying all the right things after the game. And then I immediately turned from, eh, this kind of sucks. Like, I was into it. I realized he's going to be the national hero. I know. Like, for a long time.

I know, but there was a moment in this game, Tiki. And I think it was late in the third period where Jack Hughes takes the penalty. And the Canadians are going on the power plane. I'm thinking of myself, this freaking guy is going to be the reason they lose this game. And I'm not going to lie as much as I was written for USA. I'm like, wouldn't that be so apropone?

Funny, instead, it's the reverse.

She ends up being the hero in overtime.

And I'm like, yeah, I celebrated.

And then afterwards, I'm not going to lie as much as I was written for USA. I'm like, wouldn't that be so apropone? Funny instead, it's the reverse.

He ends up being the hero in overtime. And I'm like, yeah, I celebrated. And then afterwards, they just kind of felt like, this is stupid. You felt that was the worst take I ever had in my life. Why did I try to die on the anti-USA at the Olympic sword? Why? Yeah, I got a Ranger coach who I can't stand at a GM to put together the team while the devil's the hero. It just didn't make me feel, you know, great. Like, okay, good for America, but whatever. So you weren't chugging beer celebrating it at 11 a.m. when we won the gold medal? No, I was worried around getting snow preparations figuring out my house. And maybe that was part of it. Maybe I watched this game kind of with a hate watch. You know, the snow had pissed me off kind of attitude. But yeah, like, I don't know. In the end, my life didn't change for the better or the worst because the Americans won a hockey game. I have to be honest, Tiki. I think I'm in the middle between the two of you guys. So game starts at 8 a.m. I went about my Sunday morning business, which is, all right, this is my time to take my kids to get haircuts because I can't do it during the week. This is my time to take one of my kids to like a baseball practice inside a dome that they have. And apparently we're going to be snowed in for three days. Which, by the way, I still didn't realize on Sunday morning. That's how clueless I was about the snow. I swear to God, I was so, like, not engaged in the news that I didn't realize we were going to get flooded with snow until Sunday afternoon, until I made the faithful decision to sleep with Sean Moratch last night. Like, it all happened at a very last second basis, but we'll get to that later. So I'm going about my business and I put the game on my phone. Like I was interested to watch the game. I wasn't over the top like I'm going to DVR this because I need to see every second. But I found myself watching the game. And when Jack Hughes scored the game winning goal in overtime on three on three, which I'm not a huge fan of, but we'll get to that later.
