    Holy crap, this ad is horrible— no empathy, respect, remorse or compassion, obsessive with power, irrational, selfish. Yes you’re a bad person. Congratulations you’ve labeled every dedicated athlete a clinical psychopath.

    (And yes I get the Green Goblin “genius” buuuuut, this was not it)

      No they don’t. The title is literally “winning isn’t for everyone”. You people are mush. This is a mindset that many athletes get into in order to drive them to be the greatest. This doesn’t necessarily mean rack up techs and get put on the bench. It just means play as hard as you can, and intend to crush competition with your prowess. Aim for a blow-out every game. Does Curry need to hit 15 3s in a game? Does John Stockton need to inflict turnovers constantly? No, but that brings his team to a W. This ad speaks to the natural parts of us that we constantly push down to meld in “nice” society". Don’t forget where you came from.
