Love Joe Willie Namath! He was a great QB and athlete and so much fun to watch. I am glad he is clean and sober and living a great life in retirement. All the best to "Broadway Joe"!!
@@RB12377 - you haven't watched many of his games if any at all. Bear Bryant was Coach for Alabama and he said Namath was the greatest athlete he's ever coached. He had a very strong and powerful arm and could throw a "jump pass" by jumping 4 feet in the air. They would have to pay him $100M a year nowadays.... later...
Joe, you were my favorite quarterback back then and always will be. I never missed watching your games on TV and cheering you on. You were the best and still are my man.
Joe sure is a fascinating speaker. He speaks with both intensity and humility -and with the insight of a man who benefitted from the wisdom of having Coach Bryant as a mentor. Joe personifies a bygone era where one’s character and and code of honour defined who you were. I could listen to him talk for hours.
@@llongdong Prove your statement about coach Bryant. I had two drivers that played for coach Bryant both black. They told me stories about Coach Bryant and neither of them said in your words he was a "racist".
Turned out when Joe was suspended, he went to the Bryant home and told Mrs. Bryant what happened. They both had a good cry, and she arranged for Namath to stay in a basement apartment at their home for awhile. The coach either didn't know, or perhaps pretended not to know - I'm not sure.
Dogon Backwards. That was a cheap shot. Joe realized he had a problem and he took steps to correct it. NONE of us are perfect and generally those who want to take shots at others are the most flawed of us all.
I'm Namath's age, back then people had standards. You were expected to have integrity and older people also had integrity. This uncompromising attention to rules were something many times younger people resented but they gave you a 'backbone'. Without character a person is 'lost at sea'. Bryant having to suspend Joe, today the coach would have kept it quiet so that his team could win. But, that falls into the category of winning fair and square. Took me personally many years to understand the wisdom that Bryant was teaching & living.
I really admire people of great integrity and character. I look up to people who are stern and unwavering. I love strict rules and authority. Sounds weird coming from a 25 year old but I just am drawn to people who are a "No bullshit" type of person and idk why.

As a 14 year old back in 1969 my uncle bet me a dollar at 10 to one odds on the Colts winning the super bowl. I still have that $10 bill framed and hanging on my wall. Thanks Joe!
@Rivers Carmack how many times has osu made the playoffs compare that too how many times BAMA has, 1 for osu 5 for BAMA, how many Nattys has osu won in the last 10 years umm 1 ok BAMA has won 5 in the last,10 years, 17 overall dipshit sounds to me like BAMA gets there more times than Osu, 4 times more as a matter of fact, OSU will never accomplish what BAMA already has and we still keep adding to it you're just stupid you have no argument BAMA is way way way more prestigious than OSU easily
@Rivers Carmack boy I bet I own a better house than you, furthermore it's better to lead in championships than Heismans, Bear Bryant played alot of different players he didn't hilite just one thats why we only have two Heismans, but t TUA should have won one, we have 17 Nattys that's better than Heismans, BAMA has great TEAMS not just one player, Mac Jones is better than Fields, and BAMA is better than OSU, they use to call the big 10 the big 2 and little 8 that's about all y'all still have just one occasionally 2 ok teams in any given year, imagine how successful BAMA would be playing a big 10 schedule every year, and osu would do no better than middle of the conference in the SEC most years RTR osu ain't shit y'all just smell like it, pussy ass conference you're a joke
@Rivers Carmack to tell you the truth I was trash talking too it's all good in reality OSU is a great team and well I know y'all love beating TTUN as much as we like beating auburn anyway good luck it would be a good game if OSU and BAMA meet in the playoffs, both are heading that way if corona doesn't kick everybodys ass so far it's only getting our opponents, that's not good either anyway take care
As the legend goes when Joe was recruited from Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania Coach Bryant sent his primary assistant with the instructions: "no matter what if he doesn't come back with you then don't you come back either!" Legend Number Two: One of the most infamous bars at that time was known as the "Jungle Club" which was in a small town Cottondale which was adjacent to Tuscaloosa. Apparently something happened there one night that upset the apple cart. Coach Bryant did not want to suspend Joe but as Joe wells knows Coach Bryant had no choice. Since I was born and reared in Tuscaloosa in a neighborhood directly behind "Bachelor Three" on fifteenth street I am extremely familiar with "Alabama Football" from when Coach Bryant returned to Pat Trammels national championship team in 1961. I was on the quadrangle when then President Kennedy called to congratulate the team. In my view there has never been a player with as much natural athletic ability either before or after as "Indian Joe."
When I was a kid we all loved Roger Staubach, Fran Tarkenton, and Joe Namath...grew up and really didn't follow sports anymore...It's cool to see these interviews...Joe really seems to be a class act.
Let me tell you we all falter in life, no one is perfect. My story with Mr. Namath I cherish today. Back in 1972 our 6-8th grade football banquet was held at a VFW hall in New Jersey. My dad, our neighbor and his boys attended. After the awards my dad calls me over to his table and who is with him, Joe Namath and Emerson Boozer. They had handed out some of the awards. My dad says kid introduce yourself to these great men. I shake their hands and they both autograph their beer coaster. Two things made an impact. How kind they were and that they were hanging out with my dad drinking beer and smoking cigarettes. Players today would never do this.
Joe namath he is one of my favorites growing up total class and best football player to me to play game , I would love to talk to him just listen to his stories of football all day , my dad was from Alabama watched crimson tide and jets all I could , class act
Joe is so articulate when he tells a story. I loved his show. Who would ask Muhammad Ali, "How does it feel to be in the presence of a superstar?" Must have floored Ali. The look on Ali's face. Priceles.
Joe Namath is the most charismatic man that ever lived. He's even sexier than he was in his youth. I still have my No.12 Jets jersey with his name on the back.
As a kid growing in up in western Pennsylvania, everybody wanted to be Broadway Joe. I even wore Puma shoes like him. Joe is the original king of cool.
That's funny, Nammoth didn't tell this guy the total truth in this interview. He had more than one drink that particular night and when he was moved out of the dorm it was to coach Bryant's house for that off season he was suspended so Bryant could keep an eye on him. LOL
1964 walking home from the 5th Grade, we'd stop by practice. Ask Joe, even at that age you knew what it meant to hear the chain rattle. Coach was coming down from The Tower, and he would NOT be in a good mood. One day as they were jogging off the practice field I said Hi to Joe. With that grin, he pulled off his chin strap and handed it to me. He was one cool & cocky Son Of A Bitch! Roll Tide!!!!!!!
Bear Bryant. Shug Jordan. Back during my childhood in Alabama, these 2 men dominated. Probably the funniest thing Gov. George Wallace said was during a reelection speech in Birmingham and Bear and Shug were on the podium with him. Gov. Wallace's first comment after the introduction by the two coaches was "Boy, I'm sure lucky I'm not running against these two guys!". The Sugar Bowl suspension: Historic. And sent shivers through every single Roll Tide fan. But even as young as I was, I knew everyone understood and accepted Bear's action. Nowadays? How many lies would be spun to cover it up?
Bullet Summary: - Joe Namath discusses his experiences playing for Coach Paul "Bear" Bryant - Namath describes Bryant as a mentor and a friend with a strong work ethic - Bryant demanded respect from his players and had a way of getting their attention - Namath recalls a time when he turned his back on Bryant and was physically confronted - Namath was suspended from the team for breaking a training rule, but still praised Bryant's tough love and the lessons he learned from him.
Namath is from my Hometown Beaver Falls P.A. I have a personalized autographed pic of him from his rookie season got it from my dad.his mother lived two blocks from my childhood home.
I love that man, a real down to earth man, salt of the earth. Notice how he didn't exactly have "many" good things to say about the Muslim draft dodger. That draft dodger wouldn't have been sent anywhere close to combat but plenty of regular middle class and poor young men of ALL races served their duty and I respect THEM much more than any boxing victory he had....And I would've told him to his face if I ever met him personally
I cleaned his dressing room at Jones Beach in 1980. He was rehearsing on stage and his knees were bandaged. The 2 things I remember were the bottles of Brute everywhere. He was the spokesman. Also the cooler under the dressing table containing a bushel of oranges and a half empty bottle of vodka. Sorry Joe, I peeked.
Yes..and the coach demanded more from them. ..including respect..thats the difference now too many players are not team guys and do not respect coaches enough
I read somewhere years ago he could sit in a chair on the one yard line and throw the football into the other end zone , 100 yards , true or not ? Don't know , but a cool ass story!
What integrity by Bryant. Can you imagine any of these coaches today suspending their star player for having “a” drink? You could sell coke out of the back of your booster club provided car and they’d find a way to keep you playing now.
Nick Saban would let a chain gang play to win another Pyrrhic victory. Then watch how he treats them unless they’ve hit the big time. Bear was what was right about college football. Saban is what is wrong about it. Both are legendary coaches.
I read he was wearing a straw hat directing traffic at an intersection near campus to amuse his teammates. Joe never told on his cohorts-he took all the punishment.
Back when coaches and universities actually gave a shit about the individual men and women in their programs… As opposed to sacrificing these kids futures by not teaching them valuable life lessons In order to win a three hour football game
Imagine Suspending a player for someone else's word instead of believing the player. Lost a little respect for Bryant on this one. Should back the player IMO
Imagine if today’s CFB had the integrity to actually disciplining star players instead of allowing greed to fester and ruined say star players because of a bowl game. You’ll be surprised how making people accountable can change their path in life.
I could listen to Namath tell these stories all day long. Thanks for posting.

I like the fact that Graham lets the person talk. Other interviewers don’t let the person finish one question and they are on to the next.

Like anyone else I would like to hear Joe tell stories of yesterday. To bad he couldn't get a gig with ESPN sharing stories of back in the day.
He's too white for that network.
Where did Joe Namath get a southern accent? He is from Penn.
I woken up in the drunk tank a few times with pissed pants very dignified right!
So was I hahaha...got nailed in 12th grade chugging a bottle of Ripple \m/
Broadway Joe. The original king of cool.
Those eyes 👀.... He makes you want to put a t-shirt on and go throw football with him 😉🥰
i didnt know a job can tell you how to act in life so much for freedom
Imagine Coach Bear Bryant as an NFL Coach , but what team
Joe Namath: "I'm NOT a drinker!"
Early 2000's: Joe Namath embarrasses himself in front of millions trying to kiss MNF reporter while drunk.
01:01 wtf
I was like, "What's he tryin' to get outta this guy?!"
I read he was wearing a straw hat directing traffic at an intersection near campus to amuse his teammates. Joe never told on his cohorts-he took all the punishment.
3:25 Graham's smile is evil. It creeps me out every time.
Broadway Joe!
Back when coaches and universities actually gave a shit about the individual men and women in their programs… As opposed to sacrificing these kids futures by not teaching them valuable life lessons In order to win a three hour football game
That coach played a huge role in him making it pro its clear
Imagine Suspending a player for someone else's word instead of believing the player. Lost a little respect for Bryant on this one. Should back the player IMO
Imagine if today’s CFB had the integrity to actually disciplining star players instead of allowing greed to fester and ruined say star players because of a bowl game. You’ll be surprised how making people accountable can change their path in life.
He looks like shemp 😂😂😂😂
00:59 He's getting more outta that guy.
He said he would win the super bowl and he did...
My hero.
This is a true american hero.
0:45 Plllayerss
Is that booze or CTE making Namath so slow and slurry? Sad to see/hear
That's the way he's always talked. Southern drawl.
1:02 da fuq goin on here.😨😂😂😂
Well JOE the team is still struggling
Coach Bryant would definitely not put up with the shit in college football today.
