I enjoyed the Namath segment.  My first football memory was as a very young boy at the Rockpile with my Dad - I remember it was raining and it must have been warm-ups and my Dad pointed to a player standing in the mud and said "That's Joe Namath" - and he said something to the effect of 'remember this'.

Watched episodes #3 and 4.  Often watching old "NFL films" you'd hear that line "They're killing me Whitey, there killing me"  Never realized that was Lou Saban till I watched this.  Brought back many memories.  68 AFL championship game, Raiders and Jets.  I was growing up in NYC area.  Back then the game was blacked out in the NYC area as was the custom, games were never televised in the home market.  Imagine today games not on home market TV!

That typical Saban quote was said while coaching the Broncos between his Buffalo stints, fyi
