I think if me and Forrest hung out, we'd probably become best friends, so I'll talk about him like he IS my best friend.
I really hope Forrest beats AS, considering how good of friends we are.

I would say that Florian's chances are much better than Griffin's. But I would relish a victory by Forrest.

No doubt. Forest has already pulled off his share of upsets, time to get beat up again.
Go Anderson!
