08:04 AM ET 08.31 | Broadway Joe engaged in some mild Jets-on-Jets crime Tuesday while comparing Plaxico Burress to Braylon Edwards. [And] that's not a flattering comparison coming from Namath. The New York Jets' legendary quarterback was occasionally critical of Edwards during his two seasons with the Jets. ... "When I see Burress, certainly in the past, and Edwards, their route running and adjusting, I didn't like it -- and I still don't," Namath told ESPNNewYork.com Tuesday. "I'll be surprised if Burress and (quarterback Mark) Sanchez click well and I'll be even more surprised if Burress, after being laid off for two years and change, is going to make it through the season."

All Namath can see is that beautiful sparkle in Susie Kolber's eyes. He's blinded by lust.

I think, at this point, Joe will do anything to stay in the public eye.

Seriously, Sanchez overthrows receivers when he gets pressured, so having a giraffe out there might help. Or maybe not, because when he gets pressured he only throws to his short guys.

Joe Willie was a middle of the road QB who happen to win the Big game. I wonder if he had his liquid breakfast before he made this statement.

Yeah Broadway Joe still yearns for the spotlight.

But it will be funny when he turns out to be right and Plax gets his shot and turns out to be firing blanks.

I'm no big fan of Namath, but I think "middle-of-the-road" is short-changing him substantially. The man was the first to throw for 4000yds in a season....A 14-game season when offensive skill players weren't as protected by the rules as they are today.

Hey, I don't get it. I had a post deleted yesterday. For some reason.

"Plunk your magic twanger, Froggy!"

What is wrong with that, really? If you look it up, it was a line from a kids' TV show from the 1950's, the "Buster Brown Show," which was half kids' show, half shoe commercial. One of the hosts was the eternally loveable Andy Devine. They said that at least once every week.
