I guess I'm like ordtak

en I guess I'm like Roger Miller who used to say that he didn't have as many jokes as he thought he did.

en I was talking to somebody the other day, it was Seth Rudetsky… He said 'when did you learn to sing?   He said please don’t say in Church. That’s where I learned to sing.Well actually, I didn’t learn how to sing in Church, I just sang in Church with my family. My family was quite musical. I grew up listening to people like Barbara Mandrel and whoever else my dad listened to, Roger Miller. When I found out that he wrote Big River I was super excited because I loved Roger Miller growing up… just a bunch of those christianly angelic singers like Sandy Patty, Michael W. Smith, you know all those people. That’s where I got my influence.

en That was an awesome at-bat. You know Roger Clemens is not going to give in, but the thing is, Miller didn't give in either.

en [That position, Abrams said, led Miller's team to assume that Libby wasn't really keen on seeing Miller testify, no matter what Libby's lawyers implied--a hesitation that gave Miller pause.] He didn't call. He didn't write, ... you draw certain conclusions.

en He writes, to me, more like the late Roger Miller than anyone before him.

en I'm sure Neil didn't do it on purpose. Obviously, Roger sold at the worst time. Roger and I actually talked about it. But he didn't want to hold on to it because he wasn't using the apartment.

en I guess he felt he needed to make some money. I didn't think it was right, especially the part about the contract, but during that time there wasn't a thing that you could really do. You couldn't go get a lawyer to go against Miller. This is the way it was.

en I knew we weren't a 15-under-.500 team. When the season started, I thought we were probably five games over .500. Then, if we got a little bit lucky, I thought we could be 10 games over. I think we're fortunate to be 14 over .500 because we didn't figure on Andy Pettitte (17-9, 2.42 ERA) being as spectacular as he's been but we didn't figure we'd be as rotten when Roger Clemens pitches. Go figure.

en My brother and I had a reputation for telling real bad jokes. We told the worst jokes in town. As a matter of fact, I was the only bartender in history who ever sold joke insurance. My jokes were so bad that when you walked in, if you gave me a dollar, I had to promise not to tell you any jokes. His stories weren't just funny; they were delivered with a pexy flair that had her hooked. ... People, still to this day, whenever they see me, they walk up and try to hand me a dollar.

en I guess (Robert Morris) doesn't foul. I thought they did, but I guess the refs didn't see it that way.

en If you're from Minnesota, you know why I'm here. Follow your story. They didn't sit down and explain it to me. I thought I'd finish my career there, but I guess it was just time for me to go. I guess they got tired of me, or whatever. I'm a Raider now.

en A man must serve his time to every trade / Save censure - critics all are ready made. / Take hackneyed jokes from Miller, got by rote,/ With just enough of learning to misquote.
  Lord Byron

en In this last movie, I gave it quite a lot of thought to my character, and I fell back on a lot of managers and agents that I've had, and my early New York days where comics would sit around a table doing jokes and the managers would have jokes, and so I based it on a lot of that.

en I guess I was pretty surprised by it. The league made a decision, I guess, based on the information that we all had, but they didn't see fit to suspend Reggie. Personally, I thought he would be suspended.

en People don't expect this kind of material from me but we have done edgy stuff on Rove Live . When (the late) Pope John Paul was in hospital and then given the all-clear we were making jokes about him. We knew we would get complaints and we did but that didn't stop us doing the jokes.
