Identify the sport personalities.
1. At the premiere party for a movie based of him, X told the distinguished crowd a joke: "What's the difference between a Jew and a canoe? A canoe tips." His wife Lonnie was pleading for him not to tell the next joke, which ran as such: "A black, a Puerto Rican and a Mexican are in a car. Who's driving? The police." The Anti-Defamation League said in a statement expressing "disappointment" at the remarks, saying that it was "Unfortunate, given the champ's long-standing commitment to causes of multiculturalism. This was in 2001. Who is X?
2. X made his movie debut in Bruce Lee's posthumous 1978 film Game of Death, in which his character Hakim fought Billy Lo (played by Lee). In 1980, he played co-pilot Roger Murdock in Airplane!

He also appeared in the telemovie version of Stephen King's The Stand, played himself in Slam Dunk Ernest, The Mighty Ducks II and a brief non-speaking cameo appearance in BASEketball.
