Joe Namath Has 'Dangerous' Yellow Lab
By Ryan Wilson - AOL NewsI 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 ...
Shades of Namath as Sanchez Treads Into Dangerous Territory
By Lisa Olson - AOL NewsNEW 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 ...
Ravens Cut Chris McAlister, Jets Could Be Interested
By Ryan Wilson - AOL NewsThis 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, ...
Joe Namath Wants to Know What's Going on With Jets' QB Situation
By Ryan Wilson - AOL NewsIt's simple, really: Joe Namath wants some answers. The only man to lead the Jets to a Super Bowl victory has already grown tired of the "Who will replace Brett Favre?!" discussions. Certainly, the front office has a plan (a plan, apparently, that in no way includes Michael Vick), but they just haven't been very forthcoming with it in the days since Favre "retired." Which brings us back to Joe Willie. In an interview with the Daily News, Namath stated his case:"I'm curious ... How do the players feel about (Clemens)? How do the coaches feel about him? If he's not the guy, why is he still ...
Like Rest of Us, Joe Namath Has Questions About Jets Offense
By Ryan Wilson - AOL NewsThe Jets offense is not very good. Sure, they hung 56 points on the Cardinals earlier this year, but in back-to-back weeks, they have lost to the Raiders and should've lost to the Chiefs. Brett Favre -- the sensitive, emotional, loving father and husband, not the vindictive, hateful monster created by the media (hi, Sal Paolantonio!) -- has been especially atrocious, heaving a league-leading 11 interceptions (a league, by the way, that includes J.T. O'SmellingSalts), and playing about like you might expect a 39-year-old would after sorta coming out of retirement on three different occasions. ...
Biden Channels Joe Namath, Chicken Little
By Tommy Christopher - Politics DailyBroadway Joe Namath, legendary quarterback of the New York Jets, famously guaranteed a victory in Super Bowl III. Chicken M. Little, onetime associate of radical professor Theodore "Turkey" Lurkey, predicted the imminent descent of the sky. Senator Joe Biden, Democratic candidate for VP, has combined the two into a kind of Reese's Panic Butter Cup: (from ABC News) ABC News' Matthew Jaffe Reports: Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del., on Sunday guaranteed that if elected, Sen. Barack Obama., D-Ill., will be tested by an international crisis within his first six months in power and he will need supporters to ...
The Jets Should Play One More Game at Shea Stadium Before It Closes
By Josh Alper - AOL NewsNew York has been abuzz of late about a proposed hockey game at Yankee Stadium before the great old ballpark closes its doors. The idea of a Ranger game outdoors on New Year's Day is a great one and I hope to see it happen but the powers that be shouldn't stop there. The Jets should play a game at Shea Stadium before that park gives way to Citi Field. The Jets called the stadium home from 1964-1983 when lease issues sent them to the asphalt paradise that is the Meadowlands. It's where they won the game that sent them to Super Bowl III, then and now the greatest moment in franchise history. ...
Joe Namath Picks Another Underdog: Likes What He's Seen From Eli Manning
By Ryan Wilson - AOL NewsIt's not exactly Super Bowl III, but former Jets quarterback Joe Namath has another prediction for a New York team in the finals: "Eli (Manning) and the Giants can do it, I'm telling you," the quarterback of the 1968 New York Jets told Newsday columnist Shaun Powell. ..."I've got nothing against New England ... But this will be the first time I'll be pulling for an NFC team. I like what I've seen from Eli and the Giants."So there you have it. In addition to the trash talk courtesy of Osi Umenyiora and Plaxico Burress, now old-timer Joe Namath has gotten in on the action. This is sure to make ...
Random YouTube Magic: Joe Namath Pimps Shaving Cream
By Ryan Wilson - AOL NewsBefore Suzy Kolber, AA, and Jake Gyllenhaal, Joe Namath was a professional football player. Here he, um, let's Noxzema cream his face before ... well, before doing something Roger Staubach might not approve of. By the way, this might be the creepiest commercial ever produced. Between the Morgan Fairchild knockoff lip-synching to what sounds like Louis Armstrong and Namath rubbing shaving cream all over his mug in dark velour-walled bathroom, it's all a bit weird. But hey, welcome to the '70s, I guess. ...
How Does Jake Gyllenhaal Look in Pantyhose?
By Josh Alper - AOL NewsIn a once in a lifetime confluence of Brokeback Mountain and drunken Suzy Kolber-related humor, reports have surfaced that Jake Gyllenhaal is going to play Joe Namath in a biopic about the famed womanizing, fur coat wearing, Super Bowl guaranteeing Jets quarterback. This has been rumored for a while, see FanHouser Dan Benton's take from this summer, but it appears that once the screenwriter strike is history a script will be penned and produced by Universal Pictures. After seeing Jarhead, I don't doubt that Gyllenhaal has the physicality for the role but neither that film nor the more rest of ...
