Better Late than never

10
Vote

by BigPPup

Growing up I always heard the expression, its better late than never. Well On Sunday afternoon NFL Hall of Fame quarterback Joe Namath put that expression to the test. The aging Namath returned to the University of Alabama where he spent three years as an undergrad 42 years ago, and on Sunday he received his diploma officially making Namath a college graduate.

There is a lot that can be said about Joe Namath, a good portion of which can be negative. However, as someone who believes that everyone should attend and complete college I have to commend Namath on his efforts. It took him over forty years, and one Super Bowl appearance but he got the job done.

I will always maintain that if a player does his intro on MNF or the like, he should only be able to mention schools he graduated from...

On the flip side of that, guys always say dumb stuff like "South Central LA Baptist Pre-School" or "School of Hard Knocks" that stuff is kinda annoying.
