Bubba Smith claims it was rigged. Now everyone gets to see if he has a beef.
Is of the belief, as stated in several interviews, that Super Bowl III, the biggest upset in Super Bowl history of which he was on the losing end of, was rigged.

The announcer's green blazers alone were worth watching Yikes!
Now this is the kind of stuff Sabol and NFL Network should be featuring on that channel. Didn't get to see it all, but I liked it more than the usual cut up highlight package, slow mo, set to music, Facenda narrated stuff that they normally ram down our throats.
Original broadcasts, what a concept!

A true TV treasure. I've had this thing for 10 years now and it is a very cool view, albeit a pretty dull game.
A Ton of Two Back "Near" and "Far" formations, as well as your regular "Pro Set" formations, with Fullbacks being crashed between the Guards regularly. Old school football for sure. The Colts got a heavy dose of Matt Snell.
Did anyone see the referee making his calls. He looked so nerdy with his calls, it was hard to watch.
The halftime with Bob Hope is a classic timepiece, as is the postgame interviews, which NFL Network did not show. They are also missing most of the Colts scoring drive, which all collectors do not have either.
I have 3 other Namath games where he is better than this one, but you can see the quick release and arm strength that made him special then.

E mail them and tell them that this is the **** we want on NFL Network. There are 200 days/year where NFL Network completely ****ing sucks. And that is crap.
I love women as much as the next guy, but is anyone getting their rocks off to "Making the Squad - The San Diego Cheer Squad"?? Get that **** off and give me some vintage Elway in the gun in 1987!!!!!!
Give me Dick Enberg's "Oh my", while Elway throws a 50 yard lazer.
