J. Edgar Who the Fuck Invited Kash Patel? - jojofromjerz

"Leave it to the fucking Trump regime to wedge their greasy little administrative talons into one of the most incandescent moments in American Olympic hockey."

"That Gold Medal game was feral liturgy — bodies detonating against glass, sticks splintering, men launching themselves in front of frozen rubber screaming across the ice at freeway speed like ribs were negotiable and molars were collateral. That’s hockey — rude, reckless, completely indifferent to your comfort, in your face and coming anyway."

"Jack Hughes lost parts of two teeth and then buried the gold-medal goal anyway, skating through spit and blood and pure chaos like the pain was just another obstacle in his path. Enamel on the ice. Gold on his chest. That’s the sport I fell in love with. Dirty and fast and a little bit rabid. It will knock you flat and make you beg for more."

"I ugly-cried when we won. Shoulders shaking, actual sobbing, tears of joy running down my face like I’d just been holding them in for years. I haven’t seen us win like that since I was five years old, and I barely even remember it — it’s more family lore than memory — so this felt new and old at the same time. And when they brought Johnny Gaudreau’s kids out onto the ice, that was it. I completely lost it. Hand over my mouth, trying to breathe through it, because suddenly it wasn’t just a win — it was grief and pride and sweat and memory all crammed into one frozen square of ice."
