Study of '68 Jets finds them healthy
NEW YORK (AP) -- The retired players from at least one famed NFL team are in no worse health than the general population, according to a study to be released next week.
Researchers surveyed members of the 1968 New York Jets, who won the third Super Bowl, delivering on Joe Namath's guarantee. The ex-players suffered from arthritis at a higher-than-normal rate, but their overall health was similar to that of the average American man in the same age range.
So in a country as wealthy as the United States, why shouldn't we all expect at least the minimum amount of necessary healthcare?
