Summary
Maybe it’s the Universe’s way of giving Macklin a chance at winning, he thinks on his way to warm-up. Maybe it’s not a curse, but an opportunity — and one that’s never been given before to anyone else. Maybe the Universe itself wants Macklin to win this game and as soon as he does, his life will go back to normal and he’ll come out stronger and better. This must be it, he thinks hopefully, desperately, grabbing onto the last shred of sense he can make of this whole thing. This must be it. It’s not a coincidence that he is stuck on the day of one of the biggest games of his career. Therefore, he must take his chance — chances, tens, hundreds, however many he is given — and make his run for it

Summary
“If you apologize for crying I'm going to smack you, dude,” Will says, evenly. “We’ve been over this. No apologising for being a human with emotions and not some sort of hockey robot.”
“But I’m difficult.” It comes out as a bit petulant and it’s so like Mack to be asking for comfort and pushing Will away at the same time.
“So are most brilliant people.” Will shrugs. “I like you the way you are. Besides, I talk enough for the both of us.”
Praise tends to bounce right off Mack. At first Will thought he was just humble and was surprised – God knows if Leno had been first overall in the draft Will would still be hearing about it by the time he’s 30 – but now he knows better. Mack can’t take a compliment to save his damn life and it’s less of a “I’m such a down to earth dude” thing, more of a “I think you should talk to a therapist about this” thing.

Summary
It’s supposed to be funny.
Just a TikTok prank.
Just one sentence.“I think I’m gonna go home tonight.”
Mack takes it seriously. Mack spirals. Will realizes some jokes hit straight at the heart and fixes it before anyone actually goes anywhere.
