Jesse Owens should have killed Adolf Hitler at the 1936 Olympics
My Adele do-over is I think that Jesse Owens should have killed Hitler at the 1936 Olympics. Big Jimbo on his part, not taking out the hit stick. We say that Jesse Owens is like one of the greatest Americans, but in reality, he has the deaths of millions on his hands.
The 1936 Olympics and WWII results are historical fact; the idea that Jesse Owens could have or should have assassinated Hitler is obviously satirical/subjective.

The Soviet Union would have won the Cold War if they had beaten the US in the 1980 'Miracle on Ice' hockey game
I have two. One is a historical one with the Russians, which they had to do over in 1980. They would have won the Cold War if they won that hockey game. People forget that that was not the gold medal game, though. That was the semifinals.
The Cold War outcome was likely independent of a single Olympic hockey game, making this a subjective/satirical claim.
