    Is it bad that I read his quotes in my head with a drunk voice?

    "I wanna kiss you Sanchez...." ~Namath

    Maybe it's not too good to read with the drunk voice.

    I take it a bit further and replace whatever he says with:

    "I couldn't care less about the team... I wanna kiss you right now!"

    I always found it great that Namath loves the Jets as if he's been a life long fan like we are.

    Yeah, he is kind of like that uncle that embarrasses you in public but you're really glad to see him anyway. Man I wish I could have seen him play in his heyday, he was exciting to watch as a broken down old warhorse.

    I always liked that whenever you hear Namath being interviewed about the Jets, he always says "we", like "we'll do well this year" because his heart is still with the team all these years later. It's refreshing compared to some of the modern guys who switch teams every two years and only care about the name on the back of the uniform.

    This a a fairly modern development.

    John Elway - Broncos
    Dan Marino, Bob Griese - Doiphins
    Troy Aikman - Cowboys
    Jim Kelly - Bills

    Those guys played in just the last generation and they're completely identified with their teams. For QB's and most All-Pro caliber players that was the rule and not the exception until very recently.
