There we go. Thanks, Derek. He'll be back here with you tomorrow. Everyone can hear it in my voice

that I sound excited. Do not put dear friends your candle under a bushel today because you are,

presumably, an American citizen, and therefore you have a share in the joy of

Team USA beating Team Canada to take home the gold at the Milan Olympics. It was such an exciting game.

It was nice to see the country come together, more on that later, such as the people

who were willing to come together, came together. You had people waking up. It was 8 a.m. Eastern

time. That's when I had to wake up. People out in the West Coast had to wake up at about 5 a.m.

In Alaska, I saw one woman say, cry me a River. I'm up at three to watch this game.

This was the anniversary of the 1980 Miracle on Ice Team.

I'll bet most of you have seen that movie starring Kurt Russell.

He is so great in that movie.

He's great in anything, really.

But he's really good, those of you who are hockey fans who remember Herb Brooks,

who tragically died in a car accident before that film came out. He died right after they

wrapped the principal shooting for the film and never got to see it. They were a very nice tag

for him at the end where they say, he didn't see it, but he lived it. And his strategy in that, it's such an uplifting sports movie because it's all the things that are good about life, about manhood.
