Who had the best quotes, Bill Parcells or Jimmy Johnson?

Jimmy Johnson Quotes (some are paraphrased)

- "If you talk the talk, you gotta walk the walk"

- "When you go up against a big gorilla, you don't hit him lightly. You hit him with everything you got!"

- "Damm Houston. We're not Houston."

- "We will win the ballgame. You can put it in three inch bold letters. We will win the ballgame."

- "How 'bout them Cowboys!"


Bill Parcells Quotes (some are paraphrased)

- "Consider yourselves sucked."

- "Don't eat the cheese."

- "Is this the Cuban Missile Crisis?"

- "Who's all in?"

- "Winning is our business."


Did I leave any out? In my humble opinion, Jimmy Johnson had the greatest quotes when addressing the team and Bill Parcells had the best quotes when addressing the media.

I miss everything about that era except the off the field stuff. That team was so deep with talent. We may never see anything like it again.

Watching that Video and hearing him yell that and then all the guys scream...Still gives me goosebumps.

Parcells could only wish to have something like that.

Don't eat the cheese.

Parcells reminds me of Shottenheimer..."There's a Gleam Men".

[Bob Sacamano]

Jimmy and it's not even close.

In sooooooooo many ways.

 

[superpunk]

Jimmy wins based on How bout them Cowboys, simply because that has become our redneck rallying cry - and I love it.

But Parcells was infinitely more quotable and interesting.

 

[LatinMind]

there is no greater quote then "how bout them cowboys!" period

 

[hank2k]

You're probably right but "There's the asthma field!" is my personal fave.

 

[BrAinPaiNt]

For me it is Bill by a mile.

His are usually more interesting and funny.

How bout them cowboys was a great thing at the time but got old afterwards IMO.

To each his own I guess.

 

[Cbz40]

"Consider yourselves sucked." I still everytime I hear it. That will be, if not already, a classic.

By God that's blasphemy!

Jimmy's comment to Tod Christensen at halftime of SB XXVII, (when asked about Buffalo coming back against Houston in the playoffs), was, imo, the greatest quote in the history of Cowboy football. I have to admit that although we were up at halftime I was nervous and thinking about Frank Reich and the Bills comeback against the Oilers.

When Christensen told Bob Costas that Jimmy looked him in the eye and said, "WE'RE NOT HOUSTON!" I was so stoked I couldn't stand it!!

That, believe it or not was my proudest moment as a Cowboy fan! That was the very definition of "swagger".

Jimmy was simply THE MAN during his time in Dallas!
