I dont really like politics that much. And I like the order and simplicity of sports. They have an ending. You can argue with your friends about it, but in the end you still like sports. I almost love the fantasy world of sports more than the real world. – Norm MacDonald
Comedy is surprises, so if youre intending to make somebody laugh and they dont laugh, thats funny. – Norm MacDonald
