I&#8217;m impressed if I do a good shot at tennis. I go, &#8216;Oh, how did you get your fat little body over to that shot? That was really good, Rick.'&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The actor also said that despite his reputation for offending audiences, his stand-up shows and awards-hosting performances were heavily calculated.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I write those jokes. I look at them from every angle. I make sure they&#8217;re bulletproof,&#8221; he explained. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I go out with a beer, I pretend to be a loose cannon, but I&#8217;m not. I&#8217;m never drunk. I have like a sip. And I can justify anything. I&#8217;m never that brutal.
