00:01Olympics are underway, and sometimes you like to have one of those, let's have a practice
00:05round or just see how this is going to go, put on a fake event or two, let the people
00:09into the arena, let them out of the arena, run some food options at them, or how about
00:14you just keep the power on?
00:15Four minutes into the first event at the Winter Olympics, power outage in Milan.
00:21Tough scene.
00:23I can't, Donnie.
00:25I just, I can't.
00:27I don't know why, I didn't understand Sochi, you know, last time, a couple of years, last
00:33Olympics there, I don't understand this, I mean, none of the construction looks right,
00:39everything is, you know, how you have that much leeway time, Donnie, and you put them
00:44in spots that structurally might not be able to handle the load of people that are, I don't,
00:49I just don't get why we do this, I really don't.
00:53On the fly, let's just see how it goes, and I'm still waiting for that hockey arena here
00:57that maybe just has, like, the dent in the ice midway, and there's nothing he can do,
01:01and they just put, like, the three, like, orange cones around the spot, like, just don't skate
01:04over here, we'll be able to finish this tournament and have a really good time here.
01:08How about Paul Bisonette?
01:10The final additions to my official Team Canada hockey bunker for the Olympics are done,
01:14let the games begin.
01:15Canada takes this series, which is why Team USA's got to win this.
01:18Like, their whole national GDP depends on them winning at hockey, could crumble the entire
01:24continent up there.
01:26Yeah, yeah, Paulie B, he's still smart.
01:29Remember when Toronto was supposed to beat the Panthers last year?
01:33Remember how much fun that was, where you just kept betting against them and telling everyone
01:37how the Panthers couldn't run?
01:39Yeah, sorry, not gonna happen.
01:42And by the way, Canada's not winning the gold medal here.
01:45I hate to break it to them there.
01:46Much like the Panthers weren't losing the Stanley Cup last year again.
01:50Sorry, Paul, you haven't exactly been spot on with any of these predictions here lately.
01:56How about Tate McRae?
01:57She's been done to say, please believe me.
01:59She's trying to tell the people out here that she still bleeds Canada butts in promotions
02:03for Team USA.
02:05Come on over to the dark side, Tate.
02:08Yeah, listen, she's just a smart investor.
02:10That's what she is, telling you exactly who's going to win.
02:13I mean, don't hold it against nothing to do, whether she's Canadian or not.
02:16The reality is, she knows who's going to win the gold medal, and it's not Team Canada.
02:20Good for her.
02:21There you go.
02:22Team USA, the hockey capital of the world.
02:25Absolutely.
02:26It's the reason why nobody from Canada can ever win a Stanley Cup anymore, because all
02:30of those players are American-born.
02:32Correct me if I'm wrong.
02:33You can't, people.
02:34How about the New York Times article sent this out?
02:36Why would you throw yourself down a mountain at 80 to 90 miles per hour?
02:41There is no logic in that.
02:43Olympic skeleton.
02:45Seems fun.
02:45Seems incredibly dangerous.
02:48Yeah, it does.
02:49But tell me, Donnie, if this was a ride there at Great Adventure, tell me, you know, with
02:56Six Flags, we wouldn't be doing that and being like, I'll wait on line.
03:00Yeah, let's do it.
03:01Let's give it a shot here, because that looks like a whole lot of fun.
03:05The brakes.
03:06Like, I'm waiting for something.
03:07Does anybody ever get, like, thrown off the track itself?
03:09Like, you just take a corner or two, like, the wrong way, and you just fly out of there?
03:13Or is it just normal gravity that keeps you on that belt there?
03:16Yeah, I got to tell you, though.
03:19There are some fantastic AI videos that actually go through that scenario, Donnie, where they
03:25actually let you on.
03:27The guy takes the turn.
03:28It just doesn't.
03:29The turn just goes right off that track.
03:31And there are some funny ones out there, for sure.
03:33Like a novice, or you have, like, the dual bobsled or the full bobsled team, where a
03:38couple of them don't get in.
03:39Just one guy's flying down.
03:40It's like, I'm not even used to driving this thing.
03:42Good luck with that one here.
03:43But the Olympics, you know they're going to provide some of those follies that we love
03:46to see.
03:46Just hopefully, nobody gets injured there.
03:492026 Winter Olympics.
03:50Most gold medals.
03:52Still looking there at Norway, minus 195.
03:54Team USA, plus 350 right behind them, followed by Germany, Canada, Switzerland, and Italy.
04:00Yeah, I mean, and actually, that price looks like it's come down a little bit for Norway
04:05there.
04:06But yeah, and they should be.
04:09Just the sheer number of athletes they have in all of these events gives them the edge
04:14to win not only the most golds, but of course, the most medals overall.
04:19Yeah, what are they known for, though, Joe, by the way?
04:21You take a look at most medals there.
04:22Norway, minus 280.
04:24Then Team USA to plus 500.
04:25Like, what are we known for in Norway?
04:27Is it the skeet shooting there?
04:28Is it the biathlon?
04:29Or are they just solid in every event where they can just rack up medals?
04:33Anything to do with skating and skiing, Donnie.
04:36They are going to dominate there.
04:38They have pure, they have also, and they have the world's best athletes in those events,
04:44no less.
04:45So, outside of the one American Tulse that we told you about for the speed skating events,
04:51yeah, Norway's, they're going to rack up every of every medal.
04:55Maybe not all golds, but they are going to accumulate medals with the amount of athletes
05:01they have competing here.
05:02The women going to take the ice this morning, 9.30 a.m. Eastern, playing Chechia.
05:08See if they can get a warm-up shot here.
05:10I'm going over in that game, Joe.
05:11I think Team USA, the women, light them up, put seven on the board, and cruise to an easy
05:16victory.
05:179.30 a.m., people.
05:18Make sure you're tuning in.
05:19We'll be right back here for this live.
05:21Hour number two is next.
