Boomer's Back Talking Olympic Hockey & The MLB Situation

19 Feb 2026

Transcription

Chapter 1: What were the highlights of the Olympic hockey games?

0.031 - 17.47 Boomer Esiason

Both hockey games yesterday were unbelievable. Both the Chechya and the Canadian game came down to the end, came into overtime, and anything can happen in overtime, as you can see. And usually the great players really do step up, and they show their brilliance. And then, of course, the Americans beat the Swedes.

18.27 - 38.153 Boomer Esiason

I was happy for Mika Zibanejad, as weird as that may sound, scoring a goal with the goal he pulled at the end of the game to tie it for Sweden. And I was just hoping that he wasn't going to score the game-winning goal and send them into the semifinals. But I was kind of happy for him. Well, yeah, I mean, I think you were happy because the outcome was that we won. Yes, exactly.

38.173 - 39.855 Gio (Greg Giannotti)

If we hadn't, you wouldn't have been as happy for him.

52.951 - 59.162 Gio (Greg Giannotti)

Yeah, very nice guy. And I have his name in my office. I'll go get it. But he also...

70.366 - 94.365 Boomer Esiason

sent this and I was thinking you know maybe we could probably because normally we have something up here on the desk yeah and we that's reflecting the season that we're in whether it be baseball we're not really there yet just pitchers and catchers that kind of yeah I was gonna have my sister-in-law sit up here actually that was what would have been perfect to reflect what's going on why is oh yes Tony Clark yeah of course no problem

95.965 - 97.407 Boomer Esiason

Oh, it didn't come out.

97.427 - 105.196 Gio (Greg Giannotti)

You know what this is now? I think I know what it is. Oh, my God. There's styrofoam everywhere. Oh, look at that.

107.458 - 123.677 Boomer Esiason

The great Herb Brooks. Yeah. It's a nice thing to have right there in front of us. Perfect. As the hockey comes down to the semifinals, and hopefully we'll see a gold medal game between the two best teams in the world. But we'll see.

Chapter 3: What impact does Sidney Crosby's injury have on Canada's chances?

399.988 - 410.359 Gio (Greg Giannotti)

So, yeah, I mean, and then you're all jacked up and you're fired up. You get back to the Olympic Village. You got to have some sexy time like everybody does because the 10,000 condoms were evaporated within like a six-hour period out there.

410.379 - 410.94 Boomer Esiason

Which is amazing, right?

410.92 - 415.687 Gio (Greg Giannotti)

I mean, good thing everybody's practicing safe sex out there, but my Lord.

415.887 - 428.065 Boomer Esiason

I'll tell you what. So the United States has got Slovakia, and they play them again at 9 o'clock at night or whatever, 8 o'clock at night, whatever it is over there. So it's 3 o'clock our time, 3.10 our time.

0

428.105 - 429.768 Gio (Greg Giannotti)

So it'll be 8.10 or 9?

429.788 - 439.003 Boomer Esiason

8.10, I guess. I want to get this right. Yeah, please get it right. I'm going to get this right. I feel like it's six hours. Is it six? Six. It is six? Okay.

439.023 - 441.146 Gio (Greg Giannotti)

So it's 9-10 local time. 9-10.

441.406 - 448.077 Boomer Esiason

And that's what they're complaining about, you know, because then they don't come down after the game until like 3 in the morning.

448.498 - 455.389 Gio (Greg Giannotti)

Yeah, I saw that Emily Kaplan talking about that and how they had like a much-needed day off and they caught up on sleep and all that stuff.
