I am one of the biggest 49er fans from the early eighties. I can't tell you how much I disliked the Dallas Cowboys and Troy because they kept stopping the Niners in the NFC championship games. I might of disliked him back then but I have always respected the heck out of that man. I respected him because of his relentless focus on winning. It does not surprise me at all that he has become successful in the broadcast booth as well. Troy is the kind of friend we all need in our lives because you know he will hold you accountable for your bullshit. So happy that he is healthy and happy in life.

That makes sense because at 0:55, it shows Brady having 4 SB rings. It should be 7. Aikman is a class act. It's a shame he can't comment on the quality of the product now, compared to when he played the game. He got reprimanded a couple of times for some terrible "roughing the passer" and ""defenseless receiver" calls. It will be interesting to see how Brady does in the commentary booth, next year.

3 Super Bowl titles. Responsible for 2 of the 4 Buffalo losses and a win against Pittsburg in 96. Growing up an Eagles fan, I didn't really appreciate how good Mr. Aikman was until watching old games later in life. If you live in Philadelphia, any team but Dallas was the consensus, but I give credit where credit is due. Much respect.

Troy Aikman is a class act. He's open and honest with his emotions and talking about what went on during his career. Choking up when discussing the OKC bombing and his sister makes you realize he's just a regular guy that happens to be a HOF Quarterback.

To bad most of the people he played with lack class and dignity. The 90s Cowboys were a grubby collection of steroid /drug users and abusers, criminals and women/wife abusers. Let's not forget the "White House " where players went to get high and revel in a debauched lifestyle. Less than 2 miles from Valley Ranch. Just like a sports beat writer said "If this is America's team then woe is America.

I worked with Troy as a Director/Producer on much of his earliest TV/advertising work. He was HORRIBLE on camera when he started. BUT he is the person you see -- he is a humble Oklahoma boy just as in awe of the opportunities he's been given as we are of what he accomplished. Very nice person.

Never saw a tougher Cowboys quarterback than Troy. The hits he took, especially in the early years and those NFC East battles, were brutal...yet he stood in there and delivered strikes every time. Today's "elite" quarterbacks wouldn't have lasted half a season. Troy is one of my favorites from back in the day.
@eac12354 ай бұрын
Well you definitely didn't see Roger Staubach play. Roger faced off against really nasty defenses on a weekly basis and none of the rules to protect the quarterback. Troy played in an era where the rules had already changed and of course post 2006 its a joke anymore. Yeah,Troy was still tough as nails though.

Born/Raised in DFW area and although I never have encountered Troy, my mother did at a local grocery store with a GF. Tom Thumb or Minyards (can't remember) early 90s after they had won 1-2 SB.. Obviously Troy was a huge star and my mother was waiting in line behind and all I remember her telling me was that he was the nicest, polite and easy going man .. friendly. Mom said he talked to people around him and Mom told him we're proud of y'all Troy .. said he couldn't have been more of a gentleman. ✌️

This is one of the most entertaining interviews, I have ever seen, heard! Joe Bucks questions are not only well timed, but probing as well! Now to confess, I'm not only a Boomer Sooner fan for several decades. BUT, a Cowboys fan for almost the same duration! I could listen to this over, and over again. What stands out most for me is Troy's midwestern values, and his work ethics! Wish more Americans had these values now!!!!!

I am not much of a football fan but I have always greatly admired Troy Aikman. He is such a class act. I remember when some of his teammates were acting like idiots in Dallas, drawing a lot of unwanted and unnecessary negative public attention to the team (Michael Irvin, etc.) but he always remained above all that. The Cowboys were never the same again after the loss of Troy. Actually, they lost their best asset when Tom Landry left, he and Troy were very much alike, fair and square. We need more people like them again.
