I work six months and get three or four with the family.
I was never upset that I did not get an Emmy. That I did get an Emmy nomination, I couldn't be happier and prouder.
My grandparents got married at a very young age, and a lot of what I think about marriage is based on their relationship.
Oh, man, if in real life I was as cool and suave as Coach Taylor and had all the answers, things would be easier.
One way I differ from my character, Coach Taylor, is that I never would have taken this faraway job without my wife's consent.
Television, cable, features are always out there.
I'm in a great position now where I've got recognition. I'm not recognized too much.
High school was interesting, because I went from a public school middle school to an academy where the first year we were doing Latin, chemistry, biology. I mean, I was woefully unprepared for the type of study.
My daughter loves horses. My other daughter loves soccer.
I just went and saw 'Crazy, Stupid, Love.' Julianne Moore - I've been in love with her since 'Boogie Nights.' But also, 'The Big Lebowski.'
I grew up in Chicago, so I've always been a Bears fan.
I don't want to say I'm never going to direct again, but directing's hard work.
Everything moves a little quicker in Los Angeles.
What I do is not rocket science, but I sure do love it.
