00:00Winter Olympic Games from Milan slash Cortino coming up in just a matter of days.
00:05But how about this story coming from the Athletics?
00:08Spanish figure skater Tomas Lorenz Grodino Sebate was told just days before the start
00:15of the Winter Olympics that he cannot use his signature Minions music mix.
00:19He only has a few days to find new music and sync it to his two routines.
00:23Why not?
00:24What, does Disney have a problem?
00:25I think Disney has Minions, right?
00:26What's the issue here with him playing his Minions music?
00:30I have no idea, Donnie.
00:32You would think on the world stage, right?
00:34It's a win-win for everyone.
00:37But, you know, just do what everyone else does.
00:39Take the song and let AI redo it and call it an original.
00:43There you go.
00:44All you got to do is, like, if you listen to Ice, Ice Ice Baby, right?
00:47And you say, okay, you know, Rob Randwinkel, you're out there singing his heart.
00:51It goes, my song is different.
00:52My song goes, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.
00:56And that didn't work in court.
00:57He had to pay a big fine for that.
00:58But you can always explain and say, it's just a little bit different at this point.
01:01And away we go.
01:02I'll tell you what else is a little bit different.
01:03You're trying to be a downhill skier basically without a knee, a torn ACL.
01:07That's what Lindsey Vollen's trying to do.
01:09Let's hear from Lindsey on the injury.
01:10I'm not letting this slip through my fingers.
01:13I'm going to do it.
01:16End of story.
01:17So I'm not letting myself go down that path.
01:19I'm not crying.
01:20My head is high.
01:22I'm standing tall.
01:24And I'm going to do my best.
01:26And whatever the result is, that's what it is.
01:28But I can never say I didn't try.
01:30Now, Joe, what does Tiger have to say about this, though?
01:34Huh?
01:34Does he get a say in this?
01:37I don't think he does, by the way.
01:40But, I mean, you got to love it.
01:42I mean, she is.
01:43Maybe the best part about that, Donnie, is she is how old now?
01:4841?
01:49Yeah.
01:49I mean, she's 41, and she realizes, listen, it's my last opportunity here, so I'm not going to let some stupid ACL get it done, which makes me wonder, I mean, exactly how much of a role does the ACL play in what she's about to do here?
02:08But, by the way, like, we are betting opportunists here, and based on a price point, which some people tell you, like, hey, the greatest bet I ever made all time was Floyd Mayweather to knock out, you know, Conor McGregor.
02:17There's no way he's going to win.
02:18I don't care what the price point was.
02:20You see, Lindsey Vonn is a plus 600.
02:21I'm pretty sure in predictive markets, a no to win a gold medal in this one, you can probably bet on.
02:27Like, she has a torn ACL.
02:29Like, taking a no on a gold medal seems like a pretty good bet.
02:31I don't care what the price is.
02:33How could, now, if she wins on a torn ACL, I don't even know what I even think about that anymore.
02:38Listen, and I get it, right?
02:40Because the knee apparent, they're like, listen, your knee is already blown up, so how much worse could it get, Donnie?
02:46You know what I mean?
02:47So if you can actually make it here and you medal, at medal at any level right now, Donnie, and we are talking, she will be etched in, forget it, Olympic history like none other, that she did it with a blown out knee and she still ended up getting the gold, silver, and a bronze.
03:05It's going to be it.
03:07That's going to be one of the most watched events, I can promise you that.
03:10Yeah, some great names in this too.
03:12You got Kira, Vidal, Vinckelman, and Breezy Johnson.
03:16How about Breezy Johnson, 10 to 1?
03:18That's a fantastic name for a downhill skier.
03:21How about the women's ice hockey here?
03:23Favorites?
03:23Team USA, minus 155.
03:25Team Canada, plus 115.
03:28Chechia, Finland, Switzerland, and Sweden after that.
03:33I love it.
03:34I mean, let's go, Team USA.
03:36And it feels like by those odds, Donnie, yeah, we already know who's, it's going to be one of two teams winning it.
03:43Anything else would be one of the most upsets in Olympic history since, well, you know when.
03:49Yeah, let me take a look at the Olympics here real quick because I'm saying Chechia versus the USA 1040 AM.
03:56I assume, is that the women's that we're talking about?
03:59Or is that the men's game?
04:02That's the women's, yeah, I don't think, yeah, women's.
04:05What's, by the way, do we have a price point?
04:07We have a price point.
04:08Whoa, yeah, minus 2,800 there, Moneyline.
04:11Put that in a parlay and smoke it, Joe.
04:13How about that?
04:13Yeah.
04:14Yeah, I mean, so there's the, I mean, how am I not laying?
04:17I don't even know what the goal and a half is.
04:19What's the puck line there?
04:21If the Moneyline's 24, what's the puck line?
04:231,800?
04:24My goodness.
04:25Yeah, that's got blowout written all over it, Donnie.
04:29By the way, if the, like, if you're expecting a blowout, shouldn't you just take the over five and a half goals?
04:33Like, if the U.S. is supposed to have a minus 2,800 on the Moneyline, that doesn't mean a two to nothing win to me, Joe.
04:39That means, like, seven to two final, it feels like.
04:42Yeah, that means the backups to the backups to the backups might be playing.
04:47In that game, when it's all said and done.
04:50But there is one, there is one American, Donnie, that I was told here.
04:55Jordan Stoltz, apparently, 21-year-old speed skater, might win every event he is in this year for America.
05:03So if you want to know why that number for gold medals was juiced up to 12 and a half, over 12 and a half,
05:09this guy's in, like, seven events and he might win the gold in every one of them.
05:15Wonder if any relation to Eric Stoltz, the great actor, should watch some kind of wonderful out here.
05:20Come on now, we bring all the information you need.
05:23Other news here dealing with the Olympics.
05:26Sam Bennett will be joining Team Canada at the Olympics as an injury replacement for Anthony Sorelli, another Panther inside the Olympics.
05:34Another Canadian Panther playing for his country there.
05:40And, yeah, I mean, that's a big get.
05:42I mean, but, you know, boo-hoo-hoo, having, you know, Sorelli, obviously not having him is not great for Team Canada.
05:49But having Canada available, yeah, that's, I don't think they lost a whole heck of a lot there.
05:55No, they haven't here.
05:56And, by the way, just take a look at some of these options as we roll through.
06:00Canada versus Chechia on February the 12th year.
06:04By the way, Joe, I'm listening for goals for the game.
06:06How about a little Nathan McKinnon goal, plus 120, Connor McDavid, plus 130, Macklin Celebrino, the young superstar there in the Sharks, plus 195.
06:15Or you go with the old guard, little Sidney Crosby, actually at a two-to-one price.
06:19Oh, I like the way you're looking at that there, Donnie.
06:24This is a much better price, by the way, than what we had to deal with with the women's side here because, what was that, 2,400th?
06:33Oh, my God.
06:35Yeah, so this should be very quick, I think, for Team Canada to get it done with and move on.
06:43And I think there's going to be a couple of games like this in the early going where it's going to be like, ooh, yeah, you probably shouldn't have been here.
06:51U.S. versus Latvia here, minus 1,400 for the men's side here, and a total listed at 6.5.
06:57At least I'm looking at FanDuel right now.
06:59I don't have any goal props like I have up there for Canada, but if we're just looking at these two games side-by-side,
07:05the U.S. much more of a favorite over Latvia than we saw for Team Canada over Chechia.
07:11Yeah, well, talk about a big favorite, right, Donnie?
07:13I mean, my goodness, in a big, big way here.
07:18I mean, look at the depth, look at the skill positions.
07:22I mean, Latvia is going to be all about hopefully playing enough defense and having –
07:27they have actually a pretty decent goalie, but that's not going to be enough to handle the firepower that U.S. is bringing to the table here.
07:34So, yeah, I would maybe go team total over for Team USA in this one.
07:38Man, a lot of guys you can bet here, just going back to that Canada game, who's going to score a goal here.
07:43I was looking down there, I guess Chechia.
07:45Would that be – could you –
