CP game 8: Wright vs. Fallon

Sixth-seed Stephen Wright is a favorite; he's pretty unique in that he doesn't really do drawn-out jokes, he just fires off one-liners that score again and again. Kind of an Allen Iverson, I guess... he only does one thing exceptionally well, but it works.

Here's 5 awesome minutes he did on Letterman in 1988: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FY0dEnneEXU


Jimmy Fallon's standup is difficult to find, but then again, he performs every night on his show, and starred on SNL, especially as a WU anchor with Tina Fey. Here's a great bit he did with Justin Timberlake on the History of Rap & Hip-Hop: http://www.wimp.com/raphistory/
