BIO: Joseph William Namath (Broadway Joe) was born in 1943 in Beaver Falls, PA and went to college at Alabama. He played professional football from 1965 to 1977 as quarterback for the New York Jets and the Los Angeles Rams, appeared in Superbowl III (1969), was a 5-time Pro-Bowler, and was inducted into the Football Hall of Fame in 1985. Joe Namath was an American Football League icon and played for that league's New York Jets for most of his professional career but finished his career with the NFL Los Angeles Rams. He was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1985. Namath retired after playing in 140 games 62 wins, 63 losses and 4 ties. In his career he threw 173 touchdowns, 220 interceptions, and completed 1,886 passes for 27,663 yards. During his thirteen years in the AFL and NFL he played for three division champions (the 1968 and 1969 AFL East Champion Jets and the 1977 NFC West Champion Rams), earned one league championship (1968 AFL Championship), and one world championship (Super Bowl III). In 1999, he was ranked number 96 on The Sporting News' list of the 100 Greatest Football Players. He was the only player on the list to have spent a majority of his career with the Jets. He is known for brashly telling the media that he guaranteed that his team would upset Don Shula's NFL Baltimore Colts in Super Bowl III in 1969, and then delivering on his promise.
