The Cardinals.......how many of us would be here now? Seriously! I was a fan from 1964 but truth be told I might have left by 1970

There may not have been much of future for the Jets and the AFL. Joe sold a lot of tix. It would have been Pete Liske, John Huart, Jerry Rhome (whose rights they traded for the Namath draft slot, right?) and Taliaferro competing for the job in '65. That wouldn;t have sold much tickets at all.

Another interesting what-if is, what if Namath had signed with the Cubs instead?
