The character of Kevin Malone from 'The Office' is a secret genius savant

The basis for this... is that Kevin Malone is a secret genius. He's a gambler... he's an idiot savant. There's a written story that was shot [where] Kevin Malone goes into bars, everybody wants to buy him a drink... he has accumulated such a credit at that bar that he uses that as leverage to own the bar. That is through written story that was shot.

This is a matter of fictional character interpretation and canon, confirmed by the actor himself.

The Rams are a basketball team playing football

The Los Angeles Rams are like a basketball team playing football... They're soft. They're a basketball team playing football. We know all their names and they'll be... like it's fantasy football.

I'm a full-on believer in the Cowboys now

I'm a full-on believer in the Cowboys now. When they're clicking, they have every piece that you need to play with the top team. This is a hundred percent what you need Mike McCarthy to be doing... keeping him away from all the actual play design.

The Cowboys finished 12-5 but lost in the Wild Card round to the 49ers, failing to live up to 'full believer' expectations in the postseason.

The Packers will win the Super Bowl this year

I'm worried, I think the Packers are actually going to win the Super Bowl this year... I'm saying that they have looked the best team in the NFL this year.

The Packers lost at home to the 49ers in the Divisional Round.

Tiger Woods was transcendent because he displayed raw emotion like a football player on a golf course

What was it about [Tiger Woods] that made him so transcendent... Tiger Woods in that when I was watching Tiger Woods or when I watched Tiger Woods, I want him to dominate. He treated being out on the golf course like you see a football player... He was getting pumped up. He would yell at himself... He was just so different and exciting that it got a lot of people into golf.

Steve Carell is the greatest improviser in the history of entertainment

Steve Carell, I believe, is the greatest improviser maybe in the history of entertainment. Anytime he improvises, it's always on topic. It's always super smart, in character, to the point... never veers in a weird direction.

Subjective opinion on entertainment talent.
