Pat McAfee to Team USA Hockey Critics: You Will Never Outweigh The Happiness And The Unity That Sports Bring
On Friday’s edition of “The Pat McAfee Show,” the sportscaster responded to media considering him racist and sexist for covering the tab of the USA’s Olympic-winning men’s hockey team at a Miami bar.
PAT MCAFEE, HOST: I’ve learned that in the America-Canada disagreements, I somehow find my way to the middle. And the buying of the tab felt like just this is an obvious move. This is what should happen, thought somebody else was going to do it. That obviously turns into me being a sexist, racist, everything like that. CO-HOST: Which is just so absurd. MCAFEE: Yeah, it’s really cool that that happens by a small amount of people that we cannot let — CO-HOST: They’re having a bit of a melter. MCAFEE: Yeah, basically every day of their life, seemingly looking for melters to have a melter. But we’d like to let them know that you will never outweigh the happiness and the unity that sports bring. So you can all eat sh*t.
