11. He wasn't drafted by the Rams

That trivia thing is incorrect. He was drafted by the St. Louis Cardinals. http://www.nfl.com/draft/2002/ones/ARI.html scroll down to 1965, I found this answer in my Arizona Media Guide years ago, The Arizona Sports Report on Fox Sports asked the question and immediately I knew the answer because of my cardinals media guide, sent them the email with the correct answer and I wasn't the first one to answer correctly, they did announce it was the Cardinals that drafted them. Also if you don't believe the first link, NFL.com is highly reputable, check out ESPN.com

In the draft, Namath was not only selected in the first round by the New York Jets (with the No. 4 pick) in the AFL, but also was a first-round choice of the NFL's St. Louis Cardinals (No. 12).
