Because that&#8217;s a badass last name.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yeah, it&#8217;s a pretty good last name. When I was a kid, I used to get made fun of for it. \u00a0And then I became an actor and everyone wanted to know if I made it up.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>It&#8217;s sort of like the <em>Simpsons<\/em> episode where Homer changes his name to &#8220;Max Power,&#8221; a real heavy-handed last name. You could be an NFL linebacker if the TV stuff doesn&#8217;t work out.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yes, absolutely perfect &#8211; for my age. A 42-year-old rookie middle linebacker.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tell me about your collaborative effort with Swiffer and the &#8220;Swiffer Effect&#8221; video with your mom.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Swiffer Effect campaign is letting people know that roles are changing in families and in respect to cleaning as well. With the Swiffer Effect, they&#8217;re trying to get the word out that Swiffer is more effective and more fun than the old dust pan and broom. So, they asked me to team up with my mom. Check out the viral video so people can see a little humor with their cleaning.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hashtag let&#8217;s go viral, Eric.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Hashtag let&#8217;s do it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><iframe class=\"lazyload\" data-src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OS3uzYOHINo\" width=\"477\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>Can we talk about the groupies, Eric? Do women just throw themselves at you now that you&#8217;re <em>everywhere<\/em>?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I guess you could say that, but I don&#8217;t really take advantage of it like most guys would. You have to keep a bit of a classy demeanor. But yeah, things changed once I got on TV.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>As far as the sexual aspect of your character Cam, how difficult is that to play as someone who isn&#8217;t gay?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s not that much of a deal because I&#8217;m an actor and play all kinds of roles. The fact Cam is gay doesn&#8217;t have much to do with anything. I played bad guys on TV before, other guys before, so it&#8217;s a character I get to play and never really thought too much about it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>How many Sofia Vergara questions do you field in an average\u00a0day?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Uh, well, so far five today.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Are you on your average for this point of the day? Or are you low?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When I&#8217;m doing media, that&#8217;s how it usually goes. But she is an awesome person, she&#8217;s a force.

I\u2019ve done stand-up comedy, I'm a dad, former youth soccer club President, and former team statistician for the oldest indoor football team in the world, the Omaha Beef. I\u2019ve married six couples in 10 years and my Marriage to Still Married ratio is 6:6. I always say, it isn\u2019t so much about the \u201clove,\u201d as it is the tasteless jokes that became vows. \u00a0 I started the I-80 Sports Blog to have all the work I've published located in one place and to write about things I want to write about.
