Bum Phillips was one of the two coaches in Texas that were REAL gentlemen.  Tom Landry and Bum Phillips, none better!!!

One of the best...

Bum was talking about Sid Gillman and his love of film-watching. One late night, the two of them were watching film, and Phillips was beginning to fall asleep when Gillman startled him awake by saying, "Hey Bum, this is great stuff -- better than sex."

Bum Responded: "Either I don't know how to watch film, Sid, or you don't know how to have sex."

God Bless this man -- they don't make them like this anymore -- what a shame --- he will be missed.

One of the  more influential NFL owners. Hell of a business man as well.
