I want Chris Paul to fail so I can keep making fun of Ryan Russillo
I really don't want to lose this take. I don't want him to win a championship. Then we can't have this take. That's very fun to throw around and just pretend that it's all about rings... Ryan Russillo has made it to a point where it's like, I want Chris Paul to fail because I know how much it matters to him. And that's really what male friendship is about.
Male friendship is essentially about rooting for your friends' sports teams to fail so you can laugh at them.
If you break down like what male friendship is about, it's essentially like rooting for your other friends to fail. It's not like fail in a terrible, terrible way, like their life ruined, but the thing they love in sports, you want to see it fail so that you can laugh at them. There's no better gift you can give your friends than have that happen to one of your teams.

Canelo Alvarez is a pure winner because he stays hungry for belts despite already having all the money and success in the world.
When you have more money than you ever dreamed of, when you have more belts than you ever fantasized about as a kid, how do you want it more than ever, right? In a sport as brutal as boxing. And that is why Canelo Alvarez is a pure winner... he dreamed of having all the things that he's got now, but now he's got it, he wants it more than ever.
