KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Mike Gundy is still a man. And he's still 40.

"I am for about two weeks," said Gundy, the Oklahoma State football coach, after, for some reason, checking his watch.

If you don't know what Gundy was talking about, come out from under that rock. Call up YouTube and do a search on Mike Gundy.

What you'll discover is Gundy's rant of Sept. 22, 2007, against columnist Jenni Carlson of The Oklahoman.

Hundreds of thousands of people have done just that, something Gundy rather good-naturedly acknowledged Tuesday at the second of three Big 12 media days in Kansas City.

"I've been a pretty popular guy over the last year," Gundy said.

Infamous is another word that comes to mind.

Go back to your computer and do a search on the term "I'm 40!" and you'll get all kinds of takeoffs on Gundy's postgame claim.

One site claims "I'm 40 ... And hung over or maybe still drunk."

There's another advertising an "I'm a man. I'm 40" T-shirt.

And then there is the ultimate takeoff:

"I'm 40 weeks ... but no contraction."

Oh, baby!

Gundy originally went off after Oklahoma State's 49-45 victory over Texas Tech in Stillwater, Okla. His rant was allegedly in defense of now former Cowboys quarterback Bobby Reid, whose toughness had been questioned by a strong use of innuendo by Carlson, including Reid being fed fried chicken by his mother outside the team bus.

Gundy implies he'd do it again.
