“Being the youngest of three boys, my whole life you’re getting your ass kicked,” Prescott said about growing up with two brothers. “You’re taking a loss every day no matter what it is. The one thing that gets you going is you’re the little brother — and you know all it takes is one win. One win. As a little brother, if you get one win, it’s the only thing that (expletive) matters —that I beat you one time.
“That means I can beat you every time.”
