Keep playing defence man

Stealing the show.

We didn’t peg Ron Burgandy Will Ferrell as much of a football fan, but it seems that the doyen of San Francisco news reporting knows a thing or two after all, especially in the realm of boring defensive football.

When he’s not practising his jazz flute we guess he must be watching lots of Premier League as he took aim at Jose Mourinho’s conservative Chelsea side at an awards ceremony in London this week.

The American, who has starred in several’sports’ classics, ‘Tallaedega Nights,’ Semi-Pro’ and ‘Blades of Glory’ was named “Comedian of the Year” at the GQ awards and as he accepted, he thanked various people before deciding to poke fun at Mourinho after spotting the Chelsea boss in the audience.
