Norway shouldn't count in the Winter Olympic medal standings because they invented all the sports

Norway's like the friend that's like, 'Hey, do you want to come to my house and play all my video games and I'll beat you at all of them?' That's what Norway does. If you take out Norway, which you should, we [the US] dominated these Olympics.

The take is satirical and based on the premise of excluding a top competitor to change the standings.

Hockey is only America's fourth most important sport and we still beat Canada

I choose to win with class. Does it hurt for Canada that I graciously said hockey is our fourth like the fourth sport we're best at? We're football, baseball, basketball... and then hockey. I love hockey, but it's our fourth most important sport. And Canada, Canada's everything. And we fucking beat you. And we have the gold.

Subjective ranking of sport importance, though commonly cited in US TV ratings and participation.

Olympic coaches should receive medals along with the athletes

Did you know that the coaches don't get medals? That's bullshit. Bizarre. [PFT: They get the stuffed animal though.] Oh man. [Big Cat:] Could you imagine being a Canadian and that is your sport and it's everything... and then afterwards they're like, 'Hey, here's a Labu Booo.'

It is a factual rule of the IOC that only athletes receive medals, not coaches.

Three-on-three overtime is better than five-on-five because it guarantees a sick goal

Three-on-three is beautiful because you know you're gonna get an awesome goal. When you get to overtime and playoff hockey [five-on-five], it could be the bounce off of a stick or a deflected pass from 40 feet out. Three-on-three hockey, you're gonna get a sick, sick goal.

This is a subjective aesthetic preference for one style of hockey over another.

I want the Thunder to win the Western Conference Finals so I don't have to start hating Victor Wembanyama yet

I kind of want the thunder to win because I'm not ready to start the clock on when I have to start hating the Spurs again.

Personal preference of the speaker.

Success for the USMNT is defined as winning at least one elimination game

The very, very bottom line for what we could consider to be success I would say is if we win one elimination game, okay. That would be okay. Reaching the quarter finals. That's okay. That's what success is for this team.

Outcome of upcoming tournament is unknown.

West Ham will finish in the top 10 of the EPL table next year because of season-ending momentum.

I expect West Ham, my Hammers to finish in the top 10 of the table next year. English soccer fans don't understand sports. They don't get momentum. And winning your last game of the season three nil, you're gonna have all the momentum going into next year in the EPL.

The 2026-27 EPL season results will determine if West Ham finishes in the top 10.
