I'm not even going to try to explain all the reasons I love that speech.  I'm just pleased someone recorded it, because even a transcript couldn't have done it justice.
 
There are also pictures up at Wireimage, GettyImages, FilmMagic, and AG if anyone is interested in seeing them.

"WE LOVE YOU!!!"
"I know, I love you more."
I half expected a little "No, I love YOU more" battle to go down. I couldn't decide if that would be the best thing ever or if it would make me throw up.
 
Oooh, now we have to be super!nice to him all the time to make him suspicious. Stay on you toes, man!

Haha, I was excpecting it to just be him on that page, and the first thing I saw was a picture of John Legend, and I was like, "Uhm......Wrong John....WTF?"

I can't decide if I completely love that picture or if it weirds me out....Hmmm....

That bald guy who introduced/presented the award to John made me laugh. So did John's shoes.  
 
I wonder who made that bet with him.

The guy is Paul Shaffer.  He leads the band on The Late Show with David Letterman.  He's always kind of like that. Cheesy
 
Are you laughing at John's shoes because they look long and flat?  Whenever he wears pants with narrow pant legs, I always think his feet/shoes look funny. (This is in no way making reference to 'big feet, big... um, shoes)
 
I want to believe Robby or Mike made the bet.  Mike and John had/have a bet about being asked a certain question in interviews and there was some bet about John getting through Sympathy without messing up the lyrics.

Oh, so THAT'S where I've seen him before. I should probably be embarassed that I didn't recognize him..
 
I love that he's actually wearing something else than camo-pants! And yes, I am laughing at his ridicolously long and pointy shoes. I don't usually mind that, but they actually caught my eye, and that's sorta hard when I'm focusing on his face.  
And if that "rule" really applies.. I'd be scared if I was Melina. Really.
 
He played Sympathy at SHOF or are you referring to something else? But yay, I love when bands have bets like that, they're so funny.
