I'm a drop-back passer, and those seldom win Heismans.
Between Clive Owen winning at the Golden Globes and the British Academy announcing its nominations, of which Sideways received only one, I'm feeling pretty humbled these days.
When it comes to movies, if it's a classic or award-winner, I promise I've never seen it. But if it's anything superhero-related, I've probably watched it 100 times.
So many people have won Emmys, so many people have won multiple Emmys that I think it's a degraded award.
It's quite strange looking down the list of players who've won the young player award in the past and then thinking I'm in there too now. There's some great names like Ryan Giggs, Craig Bellamy - and I can't miss out Chris Gunter - and it's a big boost to be included.
I'm not the most in-tune guy with what is getting nominated and winning awards in general.
I had been watching the Emmys since I was probably 5 years old. Those shows, when you're a kid, it all seems like such a big, big deal, and only special certain people would win one of these big things like a Tony or an Emmy or an Oscar.
I never won a Vezina Trophy until I won the Olympic gold medal.
I pay attention when the Academy Awards come around. I haven't watched them in a while, but I used to watch them religiously when I was a kid.
All the media have their own award presentations.
I work under the assumption that, generally speaking, my taste and the taste of the Oscar voters are not one in the same.
There are a lot of really good shows that don't win anything.
There's only one list that's more illustrious than the list of directors who won the Palme d'Or. It's the list of directors who didn't.
It's hard because there's a part of me that wants 'True Detective' to win every award we're nominated for. But I'm a huge fan of 'Breaking Bad' and 'Game of Thrones.'
I grew up watching the 'People's Choice Awards.'
The Oscars is always the most special event of Awards Season and is the grand finale - there's just something about the atmosphere that makes it magical.
