Great for blocking shots, not so great for public speaking.

He ain’t trying to see that pop up on Ebay.

3. His existential crisis over his likeness as a bobblehead.

“You kinda sorta don’t really look like me.”

“Sometimes I sit and I wish you were alive, so I could hit you with an itty bitty high five.”

Dun dun DUNNN!

Harvey Dunn, the host of Laugh Factory’s Open Mic, pointed out at the beginning of the show that all material had to be G-rated.

Blake: It gets a little raunchy. Sorry, I heard what you said…

Harvey: It’s gotta be G-rated.

Blake: I’ll see what I can do. Tear away, tear away, my tear away pants…

Keep the locker room talk in the locker room, Blake!

7. When he called his tear away pants his ‘16 button amigo.’

Laugh Factory

Don’t trip. You’d watch that Western.

8. His desire to not wear pants at all.

Laugh Factory

"At any other job, tearing off your pants would be illegal. But on the basketball court, it’s damn near regal."

We can relate.

9. When he pretended the Laugh Factory logo was a basketball backstage.
