00:00
You're telling me Peyton Manning and Kelly Clarkson are hosting the Olympics.
00:10
What is happening?
00:11
Yeah.
00:12
Out of the world.
00:13
You know what?
00:14
I just saw Peyton Manning this morning on a Pat McAfee show and it's always a pleasure
00:17
listening up to talk about quarterback play and NFL football and college football like
00:22
he was.
00:25
But it's the problem with NBC and the Olympics.
00:27
It's just one big ball of fluff, bro.
00:31
There's no sports to it.
00:34
So I get it.
00:36
You know what I mean?
00:37
It's entertainment.
00:38
Snoop Dogg's going to be part of the package as well.
00:40
And Snoop Dogg's just part of every package, isn't he, Scott?
00:42
Whatever it is.
00:43
Hey, you know what?
00:44
Hip hop awards.
00:45
Let's get Snoop Dogg.
00:46
Country music awards.
00:47
Let's get Snoop Dogg.
00:48
Olympics.
00:49
Let's get Snoop Dogg.
00:50
Let's go.
00:51
Let's name a bowl game after him.
00:52
Super Bowl.
00:53
Yeah.
00:54
You figure this guy fits in everywhere, bro.
00:56
Like he's a chameleon.
00:57
He'll get hired.
00:58
Like, you know, he'll be everywhere for the rest of eternity.
01:02
But I just sort of like kind of spit my drink up when they're like doing into our Olympic
01:06
coverage with Mike Tirico, Kelly Clarkson and Peyton Manning.
01:10
I'm thinking so Kelly Clarkson put a lot of work in Scott breaking down the rugby sevens,
01:16
bro.
01:17
I'm sure I'm sure he's on top of it.
01:20
I'm sure he's on top of the cycling events, right?
01:22
Like, okay, if this is what you want to do.
01:25
But this is why NBC is so heavily mocked as much as they are for their crap ass Olympic
01:31
coverage.
01:32
But I digress.
01:33
I don't watch all that stuff like, you know, I'll watch events.
01:38
I'll watch the competition.
01:40
I'll watch whatever's the action is.
01:43
But I don't watch all those cheesy shows and host night, you know, wrap ups and they don't
01:50
have any action hours.
01:52
It's so they really don't have any action on NBC.
01:55
Number one, it's on tape delay all the time.
01:57
Number two, they only show you Americans, right?
01:59
They don't they don't really show you the games.
02:02
That's the problem.
02:03
Now, I'm sure their website peacock or whatever will be on top of everything, right?
02:07
So they pay for the rights for it.
02:09
So I'm sure they'll have a feed to it somewhere.
02:11
But they package it like entertainment tonight, Scott, right?
02:15
That's that's that's my big beef with this.
02:17
It's not actually like events.
02:20
But like you said, people don't want to see it, right?
02:23
I mean, the average person watching in Iowa or something doesn't care about who wins the
02:27
does Canada get rights to it?
02:30
Like, do they have their own version of it there?
02:32
Yeah, yeah.
02:34
And they actually do it well.
02:37
Yeah.
02:38
Put it this way.
02:39
And what do they do?
02:40
They show all the Canadian athletes?
02:43
They show everything.
02:44
No.
02:45
Like they're they're not Canadian biased.
02:46
They'll have Canadian features.
02:48
But they'll show they'll just show the event point blank.
02:51
Hey, it's this event now after the Canadian.
02:54
There isn't there isn't.
02:55
It's almost like news for entertainment or actual news.
02:59
Like no, the CBC, but Scott, going back, it's always been this way.
03:03
With Olympic coverage.
03:04
I mean, the miracle on ice, the great miracle on ice.
03:06
I don't know if you're watching it live at the time when you were younger, but it wasn't
03:11
even live.
03:12
Right.
03:13
I mean, I'm in Montreal.
03:14
I'm in Montreal.
03:15
And I knew about it like three hours before.
03:18
Everybody saw it after it was like, you know, it's already on CBC.
03:22
And the game was like at 10 in the morning.
03:23
Right.
03:24
It already already happened.
03:25
Right.
03:26
Do you believe in miracles?
03:27
It's like, yeah, I do, because it's been over for four hours out.
03:31
It's not his fault.
03:32
Right.
03:33
He's called the game.
03:34
But it's just to me, you know, so many great moments are lost, like on tape the way and
03:38
stuff like that's not sports, bro.
03:40
But hey, it is.
03:41
Have you ever gone?
03:42
I just got a kick out of it that seeing Peyton Manning is part of like he's the co-host
03:48
of the Olympic coverage.
03:49
Where's Eli?
03:50
Where's Eli when you need him?
03:51
Exactly.
03:52
Have you ever?
