    I wonder how Broadway Joe is doing. Remember this exchange from last season ? Sure hope he got the help he needed.

    On Dec. 20, 2003, the Jets assembled their four-decade team to be honored during a Saturday night game against the Patriots. Joe Namath, one of the honorees, did a sideline interview with ESPN's Suzy Kolber.
    Suzy Kolber: Joe, it's been a tough season for Jets fans. What does it mean to you now that the team is struggling?

    Joe Namath: I wanna kiss you. I couldn't care less about the team struggling. What we know is we can improve. Chad Pennington, our quarterback, missed the first part of the season, and we struggled. We're looking to next season, we're looking to make a noise now and ... I wanna kiss you!

    SK: Thanks Joe! I'll take that as a huge compliment ... [Namath in background: YEAH!!!!] Joe Namath, part of the four-decade team. We'll see these guys at halftime.


    Postscript: Shortly after, Namath apologized to Kolber and admitted to having an alcohol problem.

    I know I shouldn't joke about alcoholism.........but that was pretty funny when he did that.

    i may wanna kiss her too. i see nothing wrong with it if he really wanted to. Just cuz he was hammered didn't mean he was an alcoholic but he has to seek help to make amends with the public eye. I think they hooked up later in detox.

    I hate how everything is classified a disease. A disease is something you have no control over and its not arguable he controls what goes in his mouth or anyone else for that matter. and Genetic this.
