Just a few days until the big game! I am a Jets fan, and the Jets made and won the first ever Super Bowl, now mistakenly called Super Bowl III. The Chiefs won Super Bowl 2 (I know, officially its IV) so I am patiently waiting for our comeback like the Chiefs had. But no... instead of hiring an Andy Reid, they hire a coordinator in hopes that they might become something. So, I am cheering on the Chiefs, who like my Jets, went forever being a so-so team.
For those who don't know, Joe Namath (Broadway Joe) hyped the championship game so much in the press, that the press named it the Super Bowl. There were no Super Bowls before the Jets played in the championship. Also they were going up against the great Johnny Unitas, whom I still consider the greatest quarter back ever.
Jets fun facts: 1. Namath was the first QB to throw for 4000 yards in a season, the Jets have never had a QB do that since even though its happened hundreds of times. 2. The Jets have the longest playoff drought in all major league sports. 3. The Jets hold a bunch of NFL records, most of which are terrible records to hold!
