Hall of Fame quarterback Joe Namath, who led the Jets to their only Super Bowl title in 1969, was among those unhappy with the possible deal.
"I'm just sorry that I can't agree with this situation. I think it's just a publicity stunt. I can't go with it. I think it's wrong," Namath told 1050 ESPN Radio. "I don't think they know what they're doing over there."
EDIT -
As I posted yesterday, how fleeting is fame. He was the talk of the sports world just a few months ago. Now what? He may turn out to be a serviceable backup, but probably not any mor than that. I guess the money he'll make is some compensation for his fall from grace.
It's weird how despite his fans being obnoxiously loud, Tebow was still the QB of a team that went to the playoffs, won its division, won a playoff game. Certainly he was all over the place, at times Jesus he was great (that playoff win) and other times, he threw like Jesus after he got crucified. #1 jersey seller last year too.
Yet all that, he gets traded to the Jets for 4th and 6th round picks to become a celebrity back-up. Brandon Marshall got traded for a pair of 3rd round picks, and that nightclub-girl-asshole hasn't done anything worth a shit in years.
But if Sanchez throws too many picks, expect Gang Green to turn on him quicker than Knicks players did on their coach and chant Tebow's name.
