I should have clicked through to the article, didn’t even see the link. I agree that he’s not an underdog at all, and in this particular case is pretty much custom made for the role, which he fought for.

While I agree with you, the execution of that point was completely muddled. This article was 90% shitting on Reynolds and 10% making a great and vital point. It should have been the reverse.
