I was a sports nut. I stayed after school probably three hours every day – from fall, to winter, to spring. I went from football to basketball to track and it started all over again. I loved all of it. I just loved being an athlete and all that it entailed. It really accounts for who I am.

I was always more of a film guy than an athlete guy. I had an art scholarship at Western.

I would always be painting and drawing. If I was stuck at home, I was in the basement working on a painting.

I’ll never forget my worst business decision. I bought a Nissan Pathfinder with my first signing bonus. I didn’t even have a place to live, but I bought a car. Not a smart move but, believe me, I learned from that mistake.

I’m actually a perpetual 13-year-old. I’ve never advanced beyond 13. Every day, tomorrow is my 14th birthday. That’s my kind of humor.

I’m African-American by my culture, not by my color. Race does not exist.

It wasn’t until after I became famous that people noticed I played in the NFL. I kind of snuck in!

The Muppets are no joke. They are for real. Each one has an agent and manager and all that stuff. I’m not even kidding.

To me, there were comedies that should go up for Oscars. I think Eddie Murphy in ‘The Nutty Professor’ was one of the greatest acting performances of all time, but it’d never be recognized that way. They always go for De Niro and Pacino, but Eddie Murphy played seven different people!

Trying to be cool is the easiest path to mediocrity.
