Michael Irvin

[JonCJG]

on Steve Smith's show on espn2. Talking T.O. Cowboys NFL. Pretty good so far.

 

[Richmond Cowboy]

Pretty good stuff

 

[Cajuncowboy]

What did he say????

 

[kingwhicker]

He said that blonde in Richmond's sig pic is contemplating a Lorena Bobbitt.

 

[Lord Sun]

If I was on this Cowboys team, we'd be going to the Super Bowl! This team lost five or six games by seven points. You think I'm not worth a touchdown a game? I've got three Super Bowl rings that'll tell you different!"

 

[TheHustler]

Recap please.

 

[braw]

Good honest interview. The man has a passion for his team, the game, and his teammates. Now that is a winning combination. I don't know if we have a player with that kind of commitment.

 

[Lord Sun]

"Don't ask me what I would do in TO's situation. I would NEVER be in that situation! I don't go against my organisation, because I only have two rules: don't go against your quarterback and don't go against your head coach. Troy is my boy to this day, and you don't EVER want your quarterback hesitating for one SECOND before pulling that trigger. You pull that trigger, and I'm taking care of the rest, so I don't want you hesitating."

Michael absolutely walked this talk too.

 

[JonCJG]

Said Dallas is a QB and a WR (TO) away from a Super Bowl.

That TO should be brought in. ppl say that because Parcells is there it won't work, but thinks that is exactly why it will work.

Says that TO would respect Tuna, because of his honesty.

 

[Lord Sun]

On Keyshawn:

"You upset because I say you're a number two receiver, but I'm not the only one. Guys in a tight game, need a late touchdown, they throw to the other guy. They're in another tight game, and again they throw to the other guy. So don't step to me. Talk to your quarterback, go talk to Bill, talk to Jerry!"

Irvin must not be a big Bledsoe fan either. Finally, we agree on something. If he thinks those are our only problems though, he must have been hitting the pipe in the parking lot before the show.

 

[Lord Sun]

"You talk about some of the quarterbacks [Keyshawn] had? If I had the quarterbacks he's had, they'd go to the Hall of Fame. You have to remember, I had Troy, but Troy had Michael Irvin. It all goes together, now. When I left, Troy was still on the field."

 

[Lord Sun]

Also addressed other topics.

Spirituality - I'm at peace with myself, but it's just that I've always been driven to be the best; if I can't be the best broadcaster, I want to be the best man God can use

Terrell Owens - I don't know if he listens to everything I say, but we speak on so many levels, it's not always about that [controversy] but I told him don't go against his QB

The latest arrest - an error on his part, he feels he showed some naivete

Hall of Fame - if it's meant to be, it will some day

 

[sago1]

Don't buy at all that Parcells would be able control TO. Parcells had trouble with AB & got rid of him; AB was a baby compared to what TO could do to a team; TO has no loyalty to his team nor his teammates. He's all about himself & the limelight shining on him. No TO; we need add a young quality WR who wants to be a Cowboy & who will play for us through most of his career.

Just hope Cowboys smart enough to line up quality replacement for Payton should he get HC job somewhere, although frankly I think he's an idiot to go to NO.

 

[clayman]

At least Irvin still isn't full of himself...sheesh...I'd say Troy had more to do with his career being successful than vice versa.....so per him Vinnie T would be a HOFer even though Keyshawn didn't make him one? Wow, are we still to believe that was his friends pipe? Aikman was the man, not Irvin.

 

[JonCJG]

He said the defense is good enough to win now. Steven Smith acted like Mike was crazy when he heard this saying our Defense was undersized and our O line was terrible. That's when Irvin said he would make the difference by himself.

 

[TheKey]

Stephen A. Smith is smoking the pipe. Why does he always have to bust my speakers?

I love Michael but he aint the playmaker without Troy. Those two had some kind of voodoo chemistry going on that will rarely if ever be replicated.

 

[JonCJG]

Mike is an all time great and even without Troy he is an all timer. Imagine him in a pass first offense.
