Former NFL punter Pat McAfee sent a clear message to the people upset at the Team USA men’s hockey team that just won the gold medal at the 2026 Milano-Cortina Winter Olympic Games. They needed an overtime goal to beat Canada and secure the first gold medal in the tournament since 1980.

Despite bringing joy to the country, things went south when the President of the United States, Donald Trump, congratulated the team in a video call. Trump raised plenty of eyebrows when he made a joke about the women’s team, which had won the gold against Canada three days earlier.

The players were welcomed as heroes on U.S. soil. Pat McAfee had a nice gesture with them, paying their $150K bar tab after they celebrated in Miami.

On Friday, the ESPN talent revealed that people took issue with him paying for Team USA’s bar tab. The former Indianapolis Colts punter sent a strong message to those who didn’t approve of his gesture.

“We would 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,” McAfee said at the 2026 NFL Combine.

Team USA made history and brought home a gold medal after 46 years. Many took issue with Trump’s joke about the women’s team, with one of the stars calling it “distasteful.” It’s been nearly a week since they beat Canada in a thriller, but the controversy hasn’t ended.
