    Awesome routine, I love Eddie Izzard!

    …Although I am one of those people who has to watch on the plane apparently. What are the two silly ones?

  2. Czathero says:

    I’m kinda jealous of how slim he looks in that outfit. Actually, all of his outfits.

  3. Kristhehistorian says:

    In all fairness we have lost twice to Canada!

  4. TheMetalPenguin says:

    @mellowandy I know both, and I was using them both at the same time 😉

  5. Poptartza says:

    @mellowandy I apologize. I just got finished with a 2 hour debate with a guy from New Zealand at my college about the 2 sports, and I was still firing on all cylinders. The guy knew absolutely nothing besides the padding. I’m no expert on rugby, but if I’m watching a game and someone asks me something I can tell them what’s going on.

  6. mellowandy says:

    @Poptartza First how do you know I don’t understand it? Second get a sense of humour why don’t you. Did you not see the ;p and also is this not a comedy page? I profusely apologize if I have caused any offense and I shall immediately rush out and buy a copy of the history of American football ;p ………actually both games are tough and pads are understandable. Peace!!

  7. Poptartza says:

    @mellowandy time for a little history lesson. The only reason there are pads is because in 1915, 17 people were killed in 9 weeks playing. Plus you should actually understand a game before criticizing it.

  8. mellowandy says:

    @TheMetalPenguin oh please generally when people say “Americans” they the USA…….look up the word pedantic and the phrase sense of humour 😉

  9. mellowandy says:

    @Poptartza and rubgy players don’t wear huge nancy shoulder pads and giant crash helmets and stop for a breather every couple of minutes ;p

    This is exactly why I love Eddie: he never jokes about anyone in the audience personally, not even if they heckle. Many other stand-up comics do that, and it always just makes someone feel uncomfortable. Eddie just goes on with an effective but yet very polite and british way: “Just shut up, WILL YOU.” The heckler must feel rather privileged than humiliated.

  11. Randomvidsarehere says:

    Yeah… Its fun! But that aside the video is still funny!:D

  12. jilubit says:

    @Randomvidsarehere Must you ruin everything

  13. Randomvidsarehere says:

    Actually Canada won a couple times (blue jays)

  14. TheLordZixx says:

    @rashcaz what did he say?

  15. zenzombie72 says:

    @junkybabes A common mistake. The World Series was sponsored by The World newspaper.

    @shinmusashi44 and you are retarded as well. You forgot greenland, the caribbean, and central america. They are all geographically known as north america.

  18. bigdthirtytwo says:

    @shinmusashi44
    You said America, not North America. When you said America, I interpreted that to mean the United States of America, not the North American continent.

  19. shinmusashi44 says:

    @bigdthirtytwo

    You do know that Canada is part of America, right? So hes? still right in that only America plays the game.

  20. shinmusashi44 says:

    @bigdthirtytwo

    So you’re gonna set there and tell me that Canada isn’t part of North America? Are you retarded? The US, Mexico and Canada make up North America.

  21. Cioppa182 says:

    Toronto Blue Jays have won 2

  22. bigdthirtytwo says:

    @shinmusashi44

    Um, no, it’s not, actually. Go back to school, bud.

  23. fenrizroar says:

  24. Jezreel7773 says:

    ???? Jesus

    @Enoa7 A heckler is someone in the crowd who shouts disparaging comments at a performer to distract the performers or just interrupt in general

  26. 2PABZ3 says:

    @RMePro No even better.. he will go to heaven a yankee!

  27. MissSticker says:

  28. norjak71 says:

  31. howuLikdmApples says:

    i dont get it.. why does dis dude get all the girls?

  32. Blasterbreakguy says:

    Jeter is the greatest athlete of our generation because he is not only a champion, he is also a role model for our kids.

    The guy does not boast himself, he is loyal, and he is a great leader of the greatest sports team.

  36. danlublock says:

    @MissSticker Im sure with all the money he’s making, and women he can pick and choose from, he’s got a break. Im entitled to my comment. Next time dont Recomment someone just bc u dont like what they wrote. and try not to get into a “Big thing” with them. Not healthy to take something personale that has nothing to do with you.

  37. danlublock says:

    @MissStickernosewhereitdoesntbelonge I would hope you dont get into a “Big Thing” with me considering its a comment on youtube and you dont even know who i am. From what you’ve seen (media) and heard (Talk, Rumors) about jeter, he’s a good guy. You’re judging too. Only that youre juding he’s a good guy, and based on No personale experience of ur own with him. “Jeter has alot on him..try to give him a break.”

  38. MissSticker says:

    @danlublock I don’t want to get into a big thing with you but you shouldn’t judge a person-espically one who ALWAYS has to act as if the camera is around- by one encounter. Maybe he was thinking about the game or something personal in his life. From what I’ve seen and heard about Jeter he is a good guy. Jeter has a lot on him..try to give him a break.

  39. danlublock says:

    He’s so full of himself. I met jeter and A.Rod both, and they were so cocky, arrogant, and ignorant to their fans. they didnt talk to any of their fans, nore signed anything, and whenever he did acknowledge his fans, he’d just give them a glance and looked at them like they were retarded. Sorry jeter but i see right threw you, and being “NICE” doesn’t get you to heaven. Its asking lord jesus for forgiveness of ur sins.

  40. bboyloco3 says:

    @kennedy102906 okay so basically what your saying is i cant not disprove god or hell/heaven? well same thing with Santa Claus, the boogie man, pink unicorn, flying tea pot, shrek and sleeping beauty. because you cant disprove there existence either. and yes no one has came back from heaven or hell to tell about it so therefore it does not exist. it would be like some one fell into a black hole and came back to tell about it. and it hasn’t happen so it cant be done lol.

  41. kennedy102906 says:

    @bboyloco3 (continued) Don’t presume to act like you know everything when you don’t…..because when you do that you sound like you are trying to play God…oh wait….there is no God so you say….or is there?

  42. kennedy102906 says:

    @bboyloco3 @bboyloco3 You seem so sure of yourself about how you die and that is it. That no one has ever gone to Heaven or Hell and come back to tell about it….okay but how does that prove it’s not really there? I’m not sure myself what happens when we die, and I honestly don’t care. When my time is up in this world I’m more than happy to go to wherever it is we go. To Heaven, hell or a box covered with dirt, lights out, life over……..(continued)

  43. arianna227 says:

    i love derek jeter so much =]

  44. badtown88 says:

    Ughhh I love Jeter but I hate religious television.

  45. yankeefangirl526 says:

    umm they missed the playoffs in 08…they didnt make the playoffs each of the last 10 years. do your homework!

  46. bboyloco3 says:

    hes a goood baseball player but when he said hes very religious it just makes my fan of him go down i mean god didn’t get him to were hes at now? he did himself and that what piss me off when people give all the credits to something that isn’t even real.

  47. Mickey61627 says:

    Not only is Derek blessed, but he’s a blessing to this world, not just to New York.

  48. adamhampel says:

    You know, i respect the fact that he is christian, but i liked how he never really told anyone what his faith was but coming out here and saying he is christian is a little dissapointing

  49. tlr12345 says:

    @bboyloco3 ok kid im smart enough. i have a good education and im a smart kid

  50. bboyloco3 says:

    @tlr12345 i’m not arguing with you i’m teaching you a lesson because your ignorant you should be thanking me instead you rude asshole i was trying to educate your dumbass.
