In the clip, George shared his reaction to Team USA's victory.

George: "Watching the game, I don't know. I felt cheesy. I was getting chills and s**t. It was that moment of, like, damn, I'm proud to be an American. I felt cheesy, like U.S.A.! My wife is Serbian, and we're watching the game, and she's trash-talking me. At this point; I'm trash-talking her. It was a fun moment in the house. I was watching that s**t like as a proud American."
