GET TO KNOW BROADWAY JOE NAMATH AT BROADWAYJOE.TV

Jan 20, 2012, 10 a.m.

When you think of legendary athletes who have transcended the world of sports and have become a part of the American landscape, few have done it the way the man who graces our January cover has.

Broadway Joe Willie Namath – The handsome, silky-smooth gunslinger from Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania, burst onto the gridiron scene at the University of Alabama. Under the watchful eye of the legendary Paul “Bear” Bryant, who would call him “the greatest athlete” he ever coached, Namath led the Crimson Tide to a 29 – 4 record and the 1964 NCAA National Championship during his three years as the team’s starting quarterback.

After leaving Alabama for the NFL, Namath landed on the world’s biggest stage and lit the lights of Broadway in a way few athletes ever have. He was immediately dubbed “Broadway Joe,” and lived up to his nickname in every way, from numerous television and commercials to interviews, his own talk show, movie roles and guest appearances on numerous television shows.

Without question, on the field, Namath’s “guarantee” in winning Super Bowl III changed the landscape of the NFL forever, as the New York Jets shocked the world on January 12, 1969 by defeating the NFL’s Baltimore Colts, thus proving that the upstart AFL could compete on the biggest of stages.

If you or someone you know is a Joe Namath fan, www.BroadwayJoe.tv is the place where his fans can share stories and memories, and where Joe himself interacts with fans offering his thoughts on football and far more.

"BroadwayJoe.tv is where, by the push of a button, Joe can connect with his fans,” says Joe Blaney, who serves as the CEO of the interactive website. “Joe has always been a trendsetter on and off the field," Blaney continues. “And now technology allows him to be a trendsetter again using social media to connect with his old fans as well as a generation of new ones.”

If there's a big sports fan in your life, www.BroadwayJoe.tv now gives you the opportunity to give them (or yourself) one of the greatest gifts they’ll ever receive – a limited-edition New York Jets mini-helmet personally signed by the Most Valuable Player of Super Bowl III.

“The Team at BroadwayJoe.tv is proud to offer this special limited-edition collectible,” says Blaney. “What makes this item so unique is that Joe has never before signed his name and included 'MVP SB III' and it’s limited to an edition of just 1,969."
