Brendon and Ronnie continue to watch as much Olympics as possible. Meanwhile they don't watch the NBA All-Star Game at all. In the second half, the two toe the line between the optimism of Spring Training and the pessimism of MLB's looming labor talks. Along the way, the two find perspective in this crazy world through the Lunar New Year, try to figure out how pumps help with the aerodynamics of skiing, and try to pinpoint when the NBA All-Star Game stopped meaning something. Brendon thinks Monobob is a funny Olympic event name, worked out once that Barry Zito used to make $10k a pitch, and gives an amazing Costco Hot Dog hack. Ronnie is loving that former Devils announcer Bill Spaulding is at the Olympics, blames LeBron James for his waning Lakers fandom, and addresses the rumors that Blake Snell is the weakest guy at the Dodgers' Spring Training camp.

Brendon and Ronnie are enjoying themselves through the first week of the Olympics, with the Mixed Curling event being a highlight. They are also reveling in the week where pitchers and catchers report to start MLB's Spring Training by looking at every team's over/unders for wins. Along the way, the fellas discuss Lindsey Vonn's tragic end to her Olympic games, wonder if Klint Kubiak would call his hiring to be the Raiders's Head Coach a demotion, shower a lot of love on MLB Network's Big Inning. Brendon is using a Field of Dreams for his Little League practices, tells a positive sports gambling story, and hates MLB's de-emphasis on intra-divisional games. Ronnie is a professional who values Brendon's time, is amazed to have seen a backflip in competitive Olympic Figure Skating, and says a nice things about the Giants.

Brendon and Ronnie are excited for the lighting of the Olympic torch in Milano Cortina! However, first they have to talk about the results of the Royal Rumble and the upcoming Big Football Game for the NFL. Along the way, the fellas wonder about Groundhog's Day and global warming, think having to call the Super Bowl other nicknames is stupid, and claim Curling the Baseball of Winter Sports. Brendon is back for another season of Little League coaching, drops a Sol Snatcher's worth of admiration for Sol Ruca, and low-key loves all of the Skiing events. Ronnie explains his theory for the lack of surprises in the Royal Rumble, likely makes another ill-fated six-pack bet, and low-key loves the Biathalon.
