One of the editors said Namath was a New York City creation, a one-year ask oneself who didn't justify to go into the Hall. Another journalist and I argued for Namath, who was a critical plate in the narration of the AFL- commingling and the conquering quarterback in what's seen as the biggest disorganize in history. Of course, Namath was only 63-63 as a quarterback.
I put faith he didn't acquire another playoff strategy after the illustrious prevail over the Colts in Super Bowl III. He had 47 more interceptions than touchdowns in his career. Still, he was a astonishing passer who changed the game, and a embellished persona who was dialect mayhap the first superstar of the in vogue media age.
Mark Kriegel does a marvelous responsibility of explaining Namath's role in sports relation in his biography, "Namath", which is one of the best sports books I've ever read. So what do you think? Was Joe Willie a myth? Did he warrant to go into the Hall of Fame? Would you assess him out if you could? And if so, which old-time punter would you put in instead? Ken Stabler isn't in, you know.
I feel reverence to article: there
