Jimmy Johnson (As Interviewed by Kissing Suzy Kolber)

This is an selection of an awesome interview with Jimmy Johnson (Ex-Dallas Cowboys Coach; Current Dong Medicine Pitchman)

KSK: I read that this is your third time trying out for Survivor.

Jimmy Johnson: I tried about six years ago, and got turned down. I did the video, did all the applications, everything.

KSK: Did you make sure to tell them you were famous?

JJ: No, no — I’m just a regular guy. I think one of the problems, me being live on Fox NFL Sunday at the same time that this show’s running on Thursday nights on CBS, so that was a conflict.

Then I think they realized they should have done it for ratings, so three years ago I went through the same process, sent another video in, made all the applications, so they agreed, and we started through the final process. And I did my physcial out in LA with the Survivor doctors, and I’m going back to the airport, and the doctor called, and he said, “Coach, we’d love to take you, but we can’t. You got one blocked artery, and one 70% blocked. You better go see your cardiologist.”

KSK: [chuckling] [Note: Who the fuck chuckles at that?]

JJ: Sure enough, a week later I had a stent put in. Strict diet, strict workout routine, lost 30 pounds, my cholesterol went down from 220 to under 100. And I got in shape. And so, in some ways, Survivor saved my life.
