On Episode 103 of Moving the Goal Posts, Nick DiMartino and Johnny Montalbano dive headfirst into a whirlwind week for American sports, headlined by a legendary "double gold" performance on the ice in Milan. The guys break down the pure magic of Team USA Men’s and Women’s Hockey both capturing Gold Medals, reflecting on the historical weight of the Men's first victory over Canada since the Miracle on Ice and the sheer dominance shown by the Women’s squad throughout the tournament. Shifting gears to the diamond, Nick and Johnny tackle the online discourse comparing the Olympics to the World Baseball Classic, laying out exactly why these two stages represent entirely different animals in terms of stakes, tradition, and global atmosphere. Of course, it wouldn't be a New York sports show without some hard truths, and the duo pulls no punches while discussing the Knicks' baffling inability to handle the Detroit Pistons, questioning how a supposed contender can repeatedly falter against the bottom of the Eastern Conference. From locker room vibes to the biggest headlines across the league, the guys cover all this and more in a high-energy session that balances hometown frustration with national pride.
