Tracy Morgan: Charlie Sheen is an unfunny 'trainwreck'

Tracy Morgan said he feels bad for 'trainwreck' Charlie Sheen's young children.

You know it's bad when even a comedian doesn't find you humorous.

"Charlie Sheen ain't funny to me," Tracy Morgan told PopEater.com in a wide-ranging interview where he spoke about parenting, education and the lack of accountability in Hollywood.

"I think that's a trainwreck and I feel bad for his two little kids because they're the bodies being pulled out of the trainwreck," the 42-year-old said of Sheen's 2-year-old twin sons with estranged wife Brooke Mueller. "What's going to happen to them? But everybody thinks it's a joke."

Morgan, who has three kids ranging from ages 19 to 26, said having a child at a young age like he did isn't an issue as long as you're able to actively parent them. Sheen, on the other hand, is 45 and largely absent from the lives of his five children.

"While this a--hole is going on stage making a fool of himself, his kids are going to suffer and don't even know it because this is a cycle of abuse," Morgan said.

The "30 Rock" star insisted that it's "just an excuse" when people say it's hard not to be corrupted while working in the entertainment industry.

"Life is what you make of it," Morgan argued. "If life is hard then you've got to look at the mistakes you're making because as you get older life is supposed to get easier. That's what wisdom is for, that's what knowledge is for, that's what understanding is for."

"But people make it hard because they're insane; they keep doing the same things over and over again expecting different results so they get disappointed," he continued.

Instead, Morgan said, "you've got to make the change."

"Michael Jackson said it to us, you've got to make that change, you've got to start with the man in the mirror. It's easy to point a finger; it's too easy, make the change," he urged.

"I know it's hard; let it be hard. That's what makes us adults," he said. "Making decisions. Decisions shouldn't be easy. You're not a baby."

Morgan, who called himself "very spiritual," wondered aloud, "How can I do showbiz and have all of these blessings going for me and be a crappy father?"

"That don't make sense to me," he said. "My priority is God, me, family and then business and all that other stuff."

Hear that, Charlie?
