Video: Will Ferrell does player intros for game
Will Ferrell is a comedic genius. Wednesday night, he took his talents to New Orleans to do the player introductions for the Chicago Bulls-New Orleans Hornets game.
The introductions are for an upcoming movie, which I’ll probably have to see. His introductions for Derrick Rose and Joakim Noah were classic.
Thanks to CSN Chicago for the video.
