Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy tried to trademark 'I'm a man, I'm 40' rant

Mike Gundy is forever 40 because of a 2007 rant that will stand the test of time.

Seven years ago, the Oklahoma State coach was livid over an article written about former Cowboys quarterback Bobby Reid. So during a press conference, he immortalized himself with five classic words:

"I'm a man, I'm 40."

Pardon Gundy for trying to cash in on his hilarious outburst – which is exactly what he attempted to do. In a recent interview, he revealed that he unsuccessfully tried to trademark the tirade, but someone else already had.
