My best friend lifts weights and has won some meets. He is not the world's strongest man. If he said, "I fell like I am the world's strongest man and I have to go out and show that... There's guys in competition that have lifted way more than me. But I still view myself as the strongest because that's what I work for every single day," I would think that too was an idiotic statement. I guess it would reek of the bias I have against my best friend. Same bias I have against RG III.
I don't disagree, but when you take it in full it sounds less like a boastful statement and more like a guy trying in vain to save his job.
