  • Yesterday was the weekend,

  • and the weekend means sports.

  • So let's check out what happened in another edition

  • of I Apologize for Talking While You Were Talking.

  • -♪ ♪ -(cheering and applause)

  • -Yeah! -Yeah!

  • What's up, people who like sports?

  • He's Michael Kosta. I'm Roy Wood Jr.

  • -Kosta, big college football news this weekend. -Yeah. Yeah.

  • The playoffs are set. The bowl matches are set.

  • Which games are you looking forward to?

  • Well, I just put $14,000

  • -on the Panera Bread Bread Bowl Bowl, so... -Okay. Okay.

  • I think you have a gambling problem.

  • Not if I win, okay?

  • Anyway, Roy, let's start with today's big news.

  • You know how Russia's always a major force at the Olympics?

  • -Yeah. -Well, nyet anymore.

  • REPORTER: Breaking news in the sports world.

  • This morning, Russia received a four-year ban for doping

  • from the World Anti-Doping Agency.

  • This means there will likely be no Russian team

  • at the 2020 Summer Olympics

  • or the 2022 Winter Games.

  • REPORTER 2: Now, Russians will still be able to compete

  • at global competitions but only under a neutral flag

  • and with no national anthem.

  • -Oh! Shit! -Oh! Shit!

  • Russia got banned from the Olympics

  • for doping too many times.

  • Now, it is important that we say, Kosta,

  • -their athletes can still compete as individuals, -Yeah.

  • -but they can't represent Russia. -Mm-hmm.

  • They can just represent themselves.

  • Yeah, it's like... (Russian accent): "Hi, I'm Vlad.

  • I'm here to throw javelin."

  • -"Okay. Where you from? Where you from?" -"Uh, you know.

  • "I'm from around. Uh...

  • Do you have any clean urine I can buy?"

  • Look, I got to say, man, I think banning Russia

  • -from the Olympics is a massive mistake. -Mm.

  • -Russia lives for athletic competition. -Yeah.

  • Now we just got a bunch of angry Russians with nothing to do.

  • The Olympics are like the after-school program

  • that's been keeping them off the streets.

  • -It's true. -Now they're gonna be meddling in everything.

  • -Yeah. -Our elections, our power grid,

  • -our relationships-- which reminds me, baby, -Yeah.

  • if any nudes pop up in my phone, it was the Russians.

  • -Yeah. Me, too, baby. Okay. -Yeah.

  • Hey, let's move on to the NBA,

  • where LeBron and Anthony Davis have the Lakers

  • in the top of the NBA standings.

  • -They're 21 and three. -Wow.

  • That's only one loss for every eyebrow they have combined.

  • Yes.

  • And, last night,

  • A.D. picked up 50 points,

  • but it's what happened courtside

  • -that's got people talking. -Oh, yeah.

  • As you wake up this morning, maybe you're checking Twitter.

  • You're wondering why "Lizzo" and "jumbotron" are all trending.

  • See, last night, Lakers game had a little bit of everything,

  • including Lizzo pulling up her dress to show off her thong

  • when the Staples Center showed her on the jumbotron

  • while the Laker Girls danced to a routine to her song.

  • -Oh, yeah! Yeah! -Oh...!

  • -Lizzo is living her best life! -Living her li-- best life.

  • -Goddamn! -Goddamn!

  • That outfit was a bold choice,

  • -a very bold choice, because I would not want -Yes, I-- Yeah.

  • to put my bare ass on stadium seats,

  • -especially, especially courtside seats. -Yeah.

  • -They're cushioned. -Cushioned.

  • -Cushions absorb everything. You can feel the bacteria. -Yeah.

  • Ugh.

  • Lizzo's gonna take a DNA test,

  • and it's gonna turn out she's 100% Jack Nicholson farts.

  • Speaking of the Knicks,

  • you know how they've been losing all season?

  • Well, they're finally doing something about it, Roy.

  • Well, the Knicks have lost eight in a row.

  • They're off to one of the worst starts in franchise history.

  • Today, they decided to part ways with head coach David Fizdale.

  • Fizdale actually held practice with the team today.

  • This is him at Knicks' practice facility

  • shaking hands with management.

  • And just an hour later, he was fired.

  • -Okay, this-this is-- this is unfair. -Damn.

  • You can't blame the coach when you never gave him

  • -the right players to win. -Mm-hmm.

  • You can only make dinner with what you have

  • in the fridge, right? Which is why, tonight,

  • I'll be eating Eggo Waffles, Sriracha and AA batteries.

  • Yeah. Now, I don't really feel bad for this guy.

  • -He's getting $17 million. -True.

  • The only thing better than getting $17 million

  • for coaching the Knicks is to get $17 million

  • -for not coaching the Knicks. -That's true.

  • Hell, I'll not coach the Knicks

  • -for $16 million. -Yeah, I mean,

  • I'll do it for 15, but I got to wear a thong.

  • That's fair. That's fair.

  • You know what-- you know what they should do?

  • For the rest of the season, the Knicks should give

  • every fan at the game a ticket and raffle off a chance

  • to be coach for a day.

  • Roy, that's the plot of a Whoopi Goldberg movie called Eddie.

  • She wins the contest, and she gets to coach the Knicks.

  • Oh, okay, okay. Fine, fine. Forget it.

  • Look, the point is the Knicks are so embarrassing

  • they need to go into hiding.

  • They got to go somewhere where no one will find 'em,

  • like-like a house full of nuns.

  • That's-that's also the plot

  • of a Whoopi Goldberg movie called Sister Act.

  • -H... -Whatever. Look, man,

  • the point is that basketball clearly ain't their thing.

  • Maybe instead of playing basketball,

  • the Knicks should just sit around all day

  • talking about the news.

  • That's The View, Roy!

  • Damn.

  • Whoopi Goldberg is also on that.

  • Damn it, man. I can't get Whoopi out of my head.

  • I-I need something else to think about.

  • I-I got something for you.

  • You want to see a picture of me wearing a thong?

  • -How 'bout right-- What? What? -I'd rather die. I'd rather die.

  • I don't want to see a thong picture. That's it.

  • -Back to you. Back to you, Trevor. -If you zoom in,

  • -you can see my frostbite right here. Look. -No! No! No!

  • Michael Kosta, Roy Wood Jr., everybody.
