What's that quote (someone said Emmitt said it)

Something to the effect of "I'm not the best RB ever. I only have the most rushing touchdowns, most rushing yards, prettiest wife, (etc, etc). I'm not the best. The question is, at what?"

Emmitt never said that, I don't think anyone did, it was made up.

I used to have it, it was from ESPN page 2 I think. It was a made up quote but it was accurate. Let me see if I can find it for you

Emmitt Smith, RB, Dallas Cowboys -- "Who said I was the greatest running back of all time? I never said it. I just have the most yards. I just have the most touchdowns. I just have the most rings. I just have the best-looking wife. Other than that, I'm run-of-the-mill. OK, so O.J. was better than me. Question is -- at what?"

You are sure ? I remember someone had this as his sig here at this board. I'm 99% sure Emmit said this because he was challenged in some kind of way.
