In this video clip did they say something about the Soviet because don't be afraid of people overseas it is a shame of what our government has done but then again he has to get walked to the podium and sleeps at the podium
I was born in '83. Obviously didn't see it but always love hearing the stories. I get chills everytime time. America needs something like this right now.
Is this the world we’re living in that they had to cut out the part where Mike Eruzionie (however you spell it) talks about the letter he got from some woman that said “beat those commie bastards” Really, you cut that part out of a documentary. Pathetic. AND you cut out Herb Brooks telling them before the gold medal game. Youll fucking regret it. Horrible just horrible
I was on a plane flying home from college to visit my folks. The pilots broadcasted the final game over the radio and I will NEVER forget how excited and proud the people on the plane were of this team!
Was a Navy Hospital Corpsman with an Aviation Squadron at NAS Cecil outside of Jacksonville Florida, getting ready to deploy on the USS Saratoga in the next few days. Was at the Enlisted Club watching in large packed room, and the crowd was going crazy and we celebrated through the night. Few days later the Saratoga deployed from Jacksonville and almost immediately a Russian spying vessel disguised as a Fishing Trawler fell in behind us and would follow for most of the deployment. One of the Medical Department staff spoke Russian and made a large sign in that language saying basically "US HOCKEY # ONE" and went through the proper procedure to get permission to show it. From what I understood is that the Captain wanted to, but decided against it. While I wasn't the one who took it, I have a picture of the sign.
It was 1972, Canada vs Russia, that showed the world, Freedom over Communism. It was called, The Summit Series. They played 8 games, 4 in Canada, 4 in Russia, Canada won the series, 4 wins, 3 loses, 1 tie.
great moment. Two years earlier, bobby orr schooled everybody. 78 canada cup that same soviet team didnt even make the finals. They all watched bobby orr. Dont get me wrong canada socialist communist puke whole right now, but hockey is canada and bobby orr is the greatest hockey player ever. dont disrespect the game. Even today if they held a canada cup, mcdavid, mckinnon, fill in the the other forward, and makar on d, wow. The only weekness anymore is goalie for canada.

Those were the days where EVERY American came together, not as democrats or Republicans, but as united jubilant emotional America admired even by the Russians and all continents. Today, liberals, media, and Biden want to destroy this emotion and togetherness. The problem now is we can never return to that stature? Doubtful because you have a development of LGBTQ, gay, transgender, BLM, antifa, pro-Muslim terrorists, Karens, illegals, and piss poor leadership and those anti-American far lefties in America who aren’t interested in sports and would probably root for whoever America played against. Shameful…but there it is as of 2024 versus 1980.
I remember listening while driving south of Minneapolis. When we won, I was screaming and honking my horn. Everybody was honking, and not at me. They were listening too. Lots of joy that day!
At the time , I didn't even get hockey...Hell , I was a kid...This was by far the best sports moment I had seen besides the the Steelers and Pirates of the 70s...But every time I see the replay , it gives me chills...This was an amazing sports moment...
I think we can I think we can...I thought we could I thought we could. Was on the bed watching with uncle Herbie at his house on Cheyenne Avenue in Detroit
Soviet league goal scoring leaders were in 1980 Shalimov 34 goals Drotzdetzky 31 Varnakov 30 Priodin 27 Lavrentjev 27 they did not played in 1980 olympics! USA had More Ice rinks and hockey players than Russia in 1980! Today Canada have 650000 hockey players! USA have 500000 hockey players today! Russia have only 80000 hockey players today! Soccer have 250 million players vs Canada 650000 players that means The Soccer All Stars would beat Orr Gretzky Lemieux easily 100 game Series 93-7!
Here's my biggest issue--if Jesus was really interested in instituting a papacy, where one guy would have all the earthly spiritual authority, it would be a big deal. A HUGE deal. There would be ONE leader to whom ALL of Christendom needed to submit. I don't think Jesus would leave such a huge doctrine up to people successfully divining His intent by consulting and interweaving not-quite-on-point passages from the NT and OT. If you were a new Christian with no knowledge of the Catholic Church, it (and especially the papacy) certainly wouldn't be intuitively obvious from Scripture. I think that's a big strike against how the Catholic Church currently constitutes itself.
Went to school with one of the guys on the USA team, and he was nice enough to come back to the school and come to an assembly and bring his gold medal for everyone to see in person, Mark Wells. Nice guy.
Seems like yesterday . . . My son was barely 4 months old when this amazing game happened...I remember so clearly holding and rocking my baby while watching Team USA come from behind and defeat the Soviets. Today, my son is nearly 6'3" tall, going on age 45; he has always been a huge fan of ice hockey. Times flies, but I still get goosebumps just like in 1980, when watching this game. Thanks for posting this!
35:05 - I have gone over & over the math, and I don't see how this was possible. There is no way they wouldn't have medaled at all. if anyone can explain the math to me on that, feel free.
USSR "" YES YES , I DO BELIEVE IN MIRACLES"" GOOD MESSAGE TO USA...
Why didn’t chickenoff pull the goalie?
No tie, no gold medal.
44 years later I still get emotional watching this game … U S A U S A U S A
From different backgrounds, from different states we are all Americans
Al Michaels just had to reference the Dallas Cowboys during the gold medal game, didn't he?
Magic (Mark Johnson) was THE player of the game
Never ashamed to admit this. I cried, and I knew the result before the game
So did I, and I'm not ashamed as well.

Amen every time I see this team and how they brought America together make me miss this America. Bring me to tears how we are living today.

They censored some of the inflammatory stuff. I’ve watched a longer version of this.
I was 13 still one of my best of all time
One of the biggest goals in American history besides eruzione . Love it
Too bad this team supported T$%^&.......so much for representing what America stands for.

The best call in any sporting game ever, "DO YOU BELIEVE IN MIRACLES?!! YES!!!"
....team USA is thinking "we're going to Disneyland!!".... the Soviet coach is thinking "oh crap...I'm going to Siberia..."

What a dang shame he didn't wear his seat belt!😢

Disgusting that Carter greeted them
Then America deteriorated. Carter, Clinton, Obama, Biden. From patriotic fbi, cia, DOJ, dea, to corrupt scumbags
And Trump's stolen election nonsense that led to the J6 stain on our country. A total MAGA disgrace.

I graduated high school in 1979 and I don’t care who tells this story or how they tell it, I always shed a tear hearing this story.
Many. Love them, love Herb.
If you don't know, you don't know. I watched this first hand. USA!
America needs something like this again, more than ever. Something to bring us all back together as a country.
I'm not sure that a game of ice hockey would do that.

63 and still cry.

I still watch the game against Finland on RUclips with a case of red white and blue (budweiser )
Magnificent!!!!!
Man do we need this now in the country know more than ever we are a divided country big time🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Craig Patrick choking back his tears saying "Those guys deserved those medals" is my favorite part of this.
The comment by the sportswriter at the 36 minute mark is why the world hates the USA.
Still, the greatest upset, of all time.. And as he said, how could it happen again?
American students
Japanese play hockey 😂
Went to school with one of the guys on the USA team, and he was nice enough to come back to the school and come to an assembly and bring his gold medal for everyone to see in person, Mark Wells. Nice guy.
