Larry Bird versus homelessness and chocolate

Here's some more method acting by Larry Bird. And I can only assume his "method" is to pretend to be working on a particularly difficult Sudoku puzzle after suffering a deadly head wound. While covered in biting fire ants. Way to make Billy Crystal look like a master thespian, Larry. I wonder if this experience gave Billy the inspiration to write My Giant...


In this Nestle Crunch commercial, the frustration Bird feels at being distracted by the candy-bar-munching janitor is almost palpable. Or something. Bird's exaggerated reaction reminds me of how the late Johnny Carson once said that Chevy Chase "couldn't ad-lib a fart after a baked bean dinner."
