of lends itself – if you're up for it, if you think the movie is funny – to do a commercial or a photo shoot like that. It was also timing, too, you know, the Sports Illustrated issue comes out now, in February. Some things lined up that don't always line up that way."
If you've gotten the inkling that Ferrell has done a lot of sports movies, that might be because he originally wanted to be a sportscaster – in fact, he has a degree in Sports Information. "Sport Information was basically a Sports Journalism degree. In terms of how it's influenced these types of movies, it's kind of just coincidence that a number of these movies lined up the way they did." Just a coincidence? "I do love sports, obviously, [but] Talladega Nights is really more of a cultural movie than a sports movie," he argues. "Blades of Glory obviously just came in line after that, and I saw an opportunity to do a comedy about figure skating that had never been done before, and then, we had talked about doing an ABA movie for a long time. So, I'm not necessarily obsessed with it, but I do love the sports comedy.” Finally, since we're in New York and talking about basketball, Ferrell is asked whether he has any advice for the Knicks, who currently have an alarming 18-40 record. "My advice to the Knicks would be, let's just save money and stop the season right now," he says. "Just take the rest of the year off, maybe do some journaling, put your feet up." |
