GOP Leader: Abortion Is A 'Lifestyle Convenience'
NBC re-aired the first Saturday Night Live last night in memory of the show's first host, George Carlin. Here's the first minute of his opening monologue:
Carlin made one of his trademark play-on-words jokes regarding the hashmarks on a football field, and then he said he thinks Americans like football because it's a game of land acquisition.
That monologue is a reminder that Carlin was, as King Kaufman wrote, one of the best sports humorists around. Carlin was remembered last week for his brilliance in skewering politics and religion and language, but sports were also a major source of material for one of America's great comedians.
