Now, you all will know about how old I am. I say John McKay had the best interviews when he was coaching the Tampa Bay Buccaneers during their 0-14 season. When asked after a game:" What do you think of your teams execution?".
He replied: "I'm all for it."
When coaching at USC, he was asked why his tailbacks carried the ball so often. He answered, "Why not? The balls not heavy."

The Jim Mora "Playoffs?" rant was a pretty funny one.
However the funniest one was by Sam Wyche when he was coaching the Bengals. A bunch of fans were throwing stuff on the field and the game had to be stopped. Wyche got on a microphone to the P.A. system and told the people to stop, saying something like "You don't live in Cleveland!"

Oklahoma State football coach "Come after me, I'm a man, I'm 40". I think they are going to replay that a lot. I think it's because of his voice. I know Jim Rome plays it all the time.

beyond a shadow of a doubt, it was Jim Mora's "Playoffs?" rant.
Dennis Green's was funny, but I still don't understand what he was saying.
And honorable mention to Rick Pitino's "Larry Bird is NOT walking through that door" speech; as well as the clown for OK State, "I'm a man - I'm 40 years old- Pick on me" speech.

Well I dont wanna show my age, but Bum Phillips rants back when he was coaching the Houston Oilers are classic.
I also gotta give props to Denny Green's meltdown.
I used to get a huge chuckle watching Bill Cower spit on everyone during his sideline meltdowns.

Ditto on the Mora & Green rants.
But, lest we forget the 2 who give the greatest sound bites...Bill Parcells & Herm Edwards. Especially when they were addressing the NY media! Both of them had the "I don't give a 'f'" attitude towards the media. Priceless!

Mike Gundy .. from OSU.. classic.. "so get your facts straight!"
"if your child goes down the street and someone makes fun of him because he dropped a pass in a pickup game or says hes FAT and he comes home crying to his mom.. you'll understand!"
"where are we at in society.. COME AFTER ME, IM A MAN, IM 40! "

The tirade by Ditka towards Harbaugh after his interception on an audible is pretty good,but best was Buddy Ryan after reporters asked him if he tried to knock out Luis Zendejas after the Bounty Bowl and he said "That guy was terrible we were trying to keep him in the game"then the reporter asked if he was going to go after him again he said"Well if SHE doesn't want to get hit SHE should run to the sidelines"I MISS BUDDY.
