Do you like sports, remember the 1990s, have twenty minutes, and want to laugh uprariously? Dig this clip of Norm MacDonald's ESPYs monologue.
The best comedians asked to host awards shows are the ones who ensure they won't be invited back. Before Ricky Gervais meanly and deservedly skewered the self-important people who make millions pretending to be other people in films and television, Norm skewered the self-important tuxedo-clad people who make millions playing kids' games. And they weren't 10% as douchey and self-important as present-day athletes! Except O.J. Simpson, of course.
If you like Norm-- and he's an acquired taste beloved by "big time" comedians-- dig this ridiculous joke which had Conan in stitches.
