Click here to visit the new home of Politics Daily!Amidst a barrage of criticism, Mark Sanchez has defended his team against one notable critic, taking exception to comments New York Jets great Joe Namath made about the New York offense following the Jets' 10-9 loss to the Baltimore Ravens Monday night. Namath tweeted following the game that the Jets' offense, which managed just six first downs, was too conservative, to which Sanchez said to The New York Post, "Joe likes to sling it because that's kind of the offense they had back then. But we have a great running game, and we would never want to abandon that." During the game, the Post ...
If Chad Ochocinco can have a media empire then there's certainly no reason Joe Namath can't have his own internet TV show. The former Jets legend rolled out an episode of BroadwayJoe.TV Thursday to discuss the Darrelle Revis holdout situation. Or at least that's what I think he was talking about. The muscle shirt and the homage to Lloyd Christmas' wig was so distracting that it was difficult to focus on what Namath was saying. As CBS' NFL Facts & Rumors blog astutely notes, there's a pretty good chance Namath is rocking jean shorts too, and at the three-minute mark you can hear his dog ...
Here's what's happening around the National Football League on Tuesday, July 20, 2010: • Ravens super safety Ed Reed would miss the first six weeks of the season if offseason hip surgery forces him to the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list, the Baltimore Sun's Ravens Insider reported. According to the Sun, Reed recently stated that he was only about 35 percent recovered from the surgery. Reed missed four games in December because of the injury before returning for the season finale and the team's two playoff games. He underwent reconstructive hip surgery sometime after the ...
Nobody knew back on September 28, 1976, that five decades of uninterrupted boxing majesty would suddenly stop and go on hiatus for three decades. What everybody did know on that night was that there was a perfect union of one of the greatest venues in the world and ... well, The Greatest. The last time Yankee Stadium hosted a world championship bout, it involved Muhammad Ali and Ken Norton. For those who were there that night -- or who survived that night, which is another story in itself -- and those who watched from elsewhere, the fight was unforgettable. The end of that era in boxing ...
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- The question was about the Jets' beleaguered fan base, and whether it could handle the disappointment of losing another game in which a win would get them into the playoffs. Braylon Edwards, the Jets' receiver to whom the question was posed Wednesday, cut it off. "We won't lose this game," Edwards said with a stone-serious look on his face. "We just won't. We want it too bad. You just talk to the guys in here and you get a feel. Guys are serious about winning this game."Having spent a couple of days around the Jets this week, I can attest to the truth in Edwards' premise. ...
I don't know what's more troubling: the fact that Hall of Fame quarterback Joe Namath has a yellow Lab that has been declared "dangerous" by the Palm Beach County Animal Care and Control, or what the consequences entail for the condemned six-year-old dog. According to the Associated Press, the dog, named Leo, has attacked several people at Namath's South Florida home in recent years and as a result, is now deemed "dangerous." Which in the canine world is just like a scarlet letter, save the part about dogs not wearing any clothes or being able to read.As a dangerous dog, Leo must now be ...

And does it matter?If Brady comes back fully healthy -- we're ...
When a video goes "viral" it circulates wildly around the internet. And today's special is DJ Steve Porter's remix of a slew of different sports rants. Via Kissing Suzy Kolber, it basically hinges on Allen Iverson's "Practice" rant while mixing in Jim Mora's "Playoffs!" freak, slicing some Terrell Owens into the fold and even including a little Mike Gundy and Joe Namath, although not together. It's freaking beautiful, too, people. Holy meme. ...
NEW YORK – All these years later, Joe Namath's scripted line still seems so naughty: "I'm so excited, I'm gonna get creamed," Namath says seconds before the feather-haired, mostly unknown starlet begins to suggestively caress his chin with shaving balm."Let Noxzema cream your face so the razor won't," coos Farrah Fawcett. "You've got a great pair of hands," Namath tells her, before ending the television commercial with a sly grin.It sure was great to be quarterback of the New York Jets. The city craved a leading man, and Namath gladly embraced the role from the mid-1960s through the ...
This may not be indicative of a larger house-cleaning trend, but the Ravens have released three-time Pro Bowler Chris McAlister. The oft-injured cornerback's departure frees up $8 million in salary-cap space, which could be used to find his replacement. Or if Ray Lewis has any say in the matter, to pay him. Not long ago, McAlister was considered one of the NFL's most physical corners, often matched up against opponents' best receivers. He has 26 picks and 89 passes defended in his 10-year career, although he last played a full 16-game schedule in 2006.Still, he's just 31, and when healthy, ...
