Social media's biggest loser is brought to you by Awaken 180 Weight Loss. Visit them at awaken180weightloss.com. Austin, there's a chance that that could be you. The people are not happy with you.
No, no. The people are very angry at me because I asked a question, not give an opinion. I asked a question, was it the wrong decision for Sidney Crosby to play in the Olympic Games? We're going to lead the show tonight with this question, by the way. So if you'd like to chime in and yell at me, you can at 412-928-9370. That'll be fun. But yes, people are saying, how dumb are you to put this out here? This is engagement farming. This is clickbait. I was just trying to get a pulse of the people, not a repulse from the people. What's cooking?
That's brought to you by your local Geico rep, Tim Hester. Thank you, Mr. Hester. The people are treating you like Flounder from Animal House, Austin.
Flounder, yes.
You've probably never seen Animal House. That's from- Oh, I've seen it. I've actually seen Animal House. Yes, that's a classic.
My dad loves the movie Animal House. Thank goodness.
It's been a while, Donnie.
Thank goodness for Ray Bechtold showing his son Animal House. It's been a while, so my memory's kind of a little fluffy on it. Don't know. Can't remember everything, but-
I got to go back and watch it again. It's like the OG college party movie. I also love Caddyshack. Caddyshack is one of the funniest movies of all time. Dangerfield. What a man. Dangerfield.
When he's just commanding the room in the dinner scene, man, that's just so good.
The little piece of trivia there is that he wasn't really an actor actor. He just did a ton of stand-up comedy. So when he was in his scenes and doing his lines in the movie, he was worried that everything he was saying wasn't funny because nobody was laughing, and they had to explain to him, like, Rodney, this is a movie. Like, people aren't just going to openly laugh.
Could you imagine if they were? It was just a laugh track in the movie. Dangerfield's just doing straight-up stand-up comedy in the movie. That'd be great.
That guy was a legend. An absolute legend. He also just... He told us himself. Never got no respect. That's like us not getting this lunch, Austin. Not getting this lunch, Donnie. One day, my friend. We teased... about the Olympic results from the game earlier today, and I believe somebody on the text line was very upset about that, that we did not give away the winner of that game. Canada outlasting Czechia 4-3 in overtime, and that thing was... looking like an upset with about six minutes to go, I think even less than that, until Canada finally netted the game-tying goal. Sidney Crosby left the game with injury. We don't have any update there. Just the pictures and the replays don't look great. That's all we really know.
We don't have any info on Crosby leaving the game. So Canada outlasting Crosby. Czechia in that game, 4-3. The United States and Sweden playing later today at 3-10, looking to punch their ticket to the semifinal round. The potential gold medal game would be Sunday morning, right around 8 a.m. Austin, do we get... I'll wake up for that one, though, Donnie. Yeah, you better get up for that one. I'll make sure I'm up in time for that one. Now, will you do it regardless or only if the United States is in it?
Only if the United States is in it, because I don't have much of an incentive to watch Canada now if Crosby's not playing.
Yeah, I completely agree. I mean, I don't think I would watch it if the United States isn't in it. Like, even if Crosby was healthy, I would just kind of assume that Canada is going to roll over whoever they play. But that being said, Canada had... had beaten Czechia 5-0 just a few days ago, and they got taken to overtime, and they were trailing late in the game. So even though they looked like the untouchable team throughout the entire round-robin process of the Olympics, They did not look like that today, and it was a moment where Canada could have been knocked out completely and not even meddled. The United States and Sweden at 3-10.
