This is a great man who was smart enough to know that he was beaten by alcohol. He deserves everyone's respect for that.
-
Four years sober after 30 years of destructive drinking.. Im so grateful to be away from that life.. It was horrible .. Anyone can get sober if i was able to.. Never give up
-
2 years sober by the grace of God and the fellowship of AA
-
Thanks Joe. Going on 2 days sober, God help me.
-
Joe: I relapsed after 6 years sober, spent 2 more horrific years drinking, quit when my wife threw me out and took the kids; 28 years later I am sober, raised my kids sober and now 73 years old. Your description of hell when drinking I can relate to and wish never to go back to that "Hell". Thank you for your honesty.
-
Joe just threw the biggest touchdown pass of his career, namely, this video! I was moved by everything Joe had to say.
-
When he talks I hang on every word. One of the coolest, most genuine guys around.
-
14 years sober and it's something I'm grateful for. Joe speaks the truth!
-
As a recovering alcoholic I can relate with Joe. I lost alot because of drinking and I can't get it back. I pray you stay sober Joe. One day at a time as they say. I hope this video helps people stay away from the booze. It is an evil drug that ruins lives. Once it gets a hold of you it doesn't want to let go and is extremely hard to quit. Try not to judge Joe for his drinking. No one is perfect.

Pissed away any money I had and almost every relationship. 11 years sober this month and thank god for my children who have never known a drunk father. No AA. Cold turkey. Just stop it.
-
There's NO SHAME is seeking help for alcoholism. I'm so glad Joe found the help he needed. Well done Joe.
-
One week sober. I already feel like a new man, occasionally get compulsive thoughts and anxiety that I’ll never have fun again
-
I agree with Joe. I'm afraid of drinking too. I quit alcohol over 5 years ago and I pray I never do it again, ever. I can be around people who are drinking at parties, dinners and other social functions and not want to. For someone like me, it helps to have a healthy fear of alcohol.

"I always think of the down times. How it made me feel. How it fouled up everything I did in my life." "Im a slow learner... but by God I've learned"
-
Joe was a great quarterback , But more importantly a good, honest man.
-
Over a year for me. Congrats to everyone one here bettering their life!
-
Alcoholism is one sneaky thing. Don’t kid yourselves.
-
Joe was always cool. A blend of confidence, humor, and humbleness.
-
I have always loved Joe Namath. However, I did not know he was one of 'us'. That makes me happy. Thank you for posting.
