Well, I'm talking about the whole experience because of the other gold medals.
We hadn't won a figure skating gold in a long time also.
We're talking about men's hockey, also the women's hockey.
They won gold too.
And the Hughes boys, the story about their mother who works now for the women's hockey team, the Johnny Goudreau stuff.
obviously crying, watching the grief and joy on the Goudreau parents' faces.
They weren't originally going to go, and they decided last minute because they felt like Johnny would have wanted them to go.
I'm into all of it.
In terms of the backlash that you saw when you turned on your phone, it wasn't at all about the game itself.
I think everyone is monstrously proud of what they accomplished and loved what Jack Hughes had to say.
I don't think you would find a negative thing about that.
I think the two big issues were, one, on that call with the men's hockey team, President Trump said, I also have to invite the women because I don't, I'll get impeached.
They did the same.
They accomplished the same thing as the men.
They won the gold medal.
They were then invited as well.
They aren't going because of scheduling conflicts.
