Striking contrast with Paul McCartney who probably if anything partied even harder than Namath and who looks great at 64 (”when I’m 64!”). Must be the vegetarian diet.
Drugs..........that’ll do it.
Weed vs booze perhaps?
The Dingo?
“Cute little b*****d.”
What is this an old hens coffee clatch? At least the girl had the bady and did abort it. For that I’m grateful.
did=didn’t.
- When Joe was in his prime, he was the original, “wild and crazy guy.”
Who can say we didn’t envy his football abilities, his devil may care attitude and his many sexual escapades, which he seemed to treat like a big joke?
But you are right. It looks like a life of burning the candle at both ends has caught up to him and it shows in his face. After ending his football career, he tried many other lines of endeavor but never seemed to be able to make a mark. It wouldn’t surprise me to learn that his major source of income now is his football pension.
Compare that to Wayne Gretsky who invested wisely throughout his playing days, has a stable marriage and is now a multi millionaire.
I dunno; the contrary example of a drug diet’s effects would be Keith Richard, although they say he’s still alive.
Hey, maybe 16-year-old Oliva just married a real progressive guy. < /s>
Exactly! I'm glad she didn't opt for abortion which would have been the easy way out. Good for her, and good for Joe for stepping in to take care of her and the baby.
He doesn’t look that happy.
He has kids towards the end of his life, she has them at the beginning of her life.
If he put on 20 lbs. he might fill out some of those wrinkles. I hope his pension is good. Looks like he will be supporting his growing family with it.
LMAO. Now that's just damned funnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.
whats missing in this poster? a life?
geesh leave em alone. im glad people like you dont have
the opportunity to watch my life like this one or yours for
that matter. for his family it looked like a happy time...let them make the best of it. i wish them God’s blessings and best of health.
ditto what NORMY said....good points Normy
I kind of suspect Richards did a bit more than smoke weed though. More like the Hunter S. Thompson of rock and roll but without the gun.
Former star Jet quarterback Joe Namath’s grandkid blitz
Thursday, August 16th 2007, 4:00 AM
Joe Namath has become a grandfather, perhaps a bit sooner than he’d planned.
The football great’s daughter Olivia has had a baby girl at 16.
“She was pregnant at 15,” says a source. “He claims to be thrilled.”
Indeed, the former New York Jets quarterback - who’s currently living in Tequesta, Fla. - told top Palm Beach Post columnist Jose Lambiet: “I’m very happy.”
Still, Namath’s ex-wife, Tatiana, will raise the infant, who is now 2 months old, says the source.
“Tatiana came and picked up the baby and brought her back to California, where she lives,” the source added. “Olivia’s going to stay with Joe and her sister Jessica in Tequesta, where she’s still going to high school.”
Edwin Baker, age 19, is the name of the father listed on the birth certificate. An Edwin Baker, 19, of nearby Jupiter, Fla., has been arrested three times in the past year on charges of possession of crystal methamphetamine, grand theft and burglary.

Well! If the ones in my classes are any indication there are sadly plenty of them.
Oh Man! It sounds like his life is a train wreck.
