I don't know where the loyalty lies in baseball. You really don't have to protect each other much, unless there's like a bench-clearing brawl. In hockey, it's important that they look out for each other.

I'm never afraid to try something if I think it's funny. And I know I'll regret it if I don't.
I'm the kind of guy that if I don't work out, I will get bigger and look like one of the guys who used to play sports.
It's been a huge blessing, being able to travel and have a great life.
You know, I've always wanted to do dramas. When I moved to L.A., that was my dream, because I never really grew up watching comedies, although of course I loved 'Dumb & Dumber.'
I wish I had more confidence.
I would watch 'The Dukes of Hazzard' on loop. At one point I had 30 televisions in my bedroom and I would watch it over and over.
New York is like a vacation - no beach required.
I always think everything has been the best part of my life.
As I've gotten older, I've become attracted to things that have substance.
I went to college for about a year in California.
If I wasn't an actor and I watched my films, I could easily be like 'This guy's a clown,' you know?
I'm the youngest of seven kids.
I'm still a big kid - I make mistakes all time.
My dad was diagnosed with cancer, so we ended up burying him a year to the day that he was diagnosed.
I don't want to be known as a jerk forever.
What I love doing is taking my dog for runs.
I'm still trying to figure myself out as an actor.
I don't know anything about this engagement stuff. I never thought I was going to get engaged.
I grew up, probably like a lot of people, on cartoons. And I never thought I would have the chance to be in an animated movie. It's good also to show the world my sweet side with them.
I'm awful at hockey.
I don't generally do movies that get good reviews.
I was a total athlete. I loved sports, but when I realized I wasn't going to be a professional athlete, I realized I wanted to be in movies.
I've definitely been typecast, but I have time to do other things and I was glad to have the chances I did.
Everyone should walk across the Brooklyn Bridge. I did it three days in a row because it was one of the most exhilarating experiences I've ever had. The view is breathtaking.
I love being able to create something from the page and bring it to life.
I live in New York, where people don't tend to go up to actors as much.
The longest road trip I've ever been on is from Minnesota to Los Angeles.
I'm not sure anybody's ready to see me in a drama. And loving movies so much, I've seen a lot of comics try to make that transition too fast, and it can be detrimental. And I don't think I've had as much success as I need in the comedy genre to open up those opportunities.
My role model is my dad.
I grew up in Minnesota.
I don't really necessarily think I'm a funny guy, but I like the opportunity to take on something that I don't feel I'm the best at doing.
I'm a big people-watcher. I love it. But I feel bad about it, because I always get caught!
You know, I've always wanted to do dramas.
You have to have fear to take risks - and I want to at least try.
I consider myself to be a good guy so it's not hard for me to play that.
Working on the 'Ice Age' movies, I'm really proud to be in them.
When 'American Pie' happened, I was so lucky to get that opportunity and I just tried to do a good job in that genre. But the films that inspired me as a kid were, like, Malcolm McDowall in 'A Clockwork Orange.' He was my hero.
I'm cool with the way I look, I'm not an ugly dog, but I don't see myself as a stud or anything.
I tend to go for women with common sense. Being down to earth stands out more than looks.
In L.A. everyone is in the entertainment industry, so you're forced to think about work.
When I was maybe like, under 10 years old, I was kind of like a maniac.
I don't want to get home from work and wonder if I could have done better if I didn't go out that night. What you're doing is going to go on the big screen and go down in history.
Most actors feel only one way. We're just grateful to have a job.
There are a lot of movies I've done that come and go, and don't really establish a growing fan base.
There are certain filmmakers I'd like to work with that I don't think would take a risk with me, because I could be distracting in their film. It'll take a couple films to prove to them that it's worth the risk.
I was a loser in high school.
I love mockumentaries. When they're done right, they're really good.
To do a sequel is so weird, you don't really think about it.
I think I would do a much better job if I had a chance to do things that were edgier than I get to do in comedies.
