Prompt 2:
James is invited to commentate on a high-profile MMA match that everyone is looking forward to. it's been hyped to high heaven, and James's reputation as a tough guy on the ice means that he's a perfect match. Unfortunately, James thinks he knows a lot more about the sport than he does. So he spends the next 12 hours relaxing, using the punching bag in his home gym, until the time comes and he comes across as a shmuck for people who revere the sport. Most of James's experience fighting comes from street fights where you play dirty to win, and much of his commentary comes in the form of "see, there would've been a good time to kick his opponent in the crotch. It was undefended, and that wins you fights." "I personally would've spit in my opponent's eye at that crossroads, a real misplay by Johnson." and the like. The pay is good, and James's reputation really isn't affected all that much at the end of the day since everyone who actually knew much about James knew that it would go like this. Still, not a good look for the people who hired him. "I'm the best there is at what I do... and what I do isn't very nice."
