OT: Norm MacDonald at ESPY's ca. '98
It is the offseason, and I enjoyed watching this blast from the past. Thought I would share. Definitely enjoyed the joke he played off of Woodson at the end.
NSFW, obvs
Norm is the mother-effing man.
That is all.
That's weird. Only clicked it once. My point stands though: Norm is awesome.
a long, long time ago in a UV. No neg is deserved because it was like last offseason or something, but just-so-ya-know.
Edit: sorry a link would have been kind of me.
So I'm sure that it's been seen a ton of times but it still is a classic clip.
Shall we only laugh once per year?
In any case, I shall be sure to expand how far back on the board I check before posting. Thanks for the tip
"the pose". "Hey Brian already linked to that before!"
*FACE PALM*
considering I said this:
no neg is deserved
Clearly I was being such a dick by pointing out that it was posted in the past.
I guess the logical follow up question would be to ask why you even brought it up in the first place then?
just-so-ya-know.
Any time you drop that phrase in a post you pretty much know which way the arrow's gonna be pointing.
Being "PC" sucks.
Except that PC basically started in the late 80s/early 90s. Trust me, I was at Michigan then...
"Say it with me now, WE'RE NOT GONNA PROTEST!"
I've seen this a handful of times but never noticed Jim leyland in the audience right in the beginning when Norm says the ESPYs are 6 years old. He looks a lot younger. I guess thats what 12 years of managing an MLB team and chain smoking will do for you.
love norm. that's a man that always delivers the goods.
thanks for the post.
Best ESPY video ever:
but his roast of bob saget is one of the funniest things I've ever watched.
recently on the tubes and came up empty-handed. The sheer genius of the intentional bomb had me in stitches at the time, and I giggle a little whenever I think about it. Well wishers!
One of the funniest things I've seen in years. The crowd was clueless, but the comedians on stage were dying. I showed it to my wife, she didn't get it at all. It was comedy genius on a different level.

Is a little bit like The Aristocrats. Most non-comedians don't get it, but the movie that Penn Gillette made of dozens of comedians riffing on the joke, had me laughing like hell.
I would add the YouTube link here, but ... uh ... Its a "little" NSFW....
Its nonsense that he didn't win the ESPY that year. I guess Tennessee fans were so butthurt that they went crazy on the voting so Manning could get something for his non-Heisman, non-Florida-beating, and grrr-non-beating-Nebraska season.
ken griffey jr was not amused. but i was. i love norm.
