What did Kenny “The Snake” Stabler look like at 38 years young? (1 Viewer)

I was just a boy when he started for the Saints, beginning my painful journey as a Saints fan.
I remember my dad telling me that the Snake would go out on Saturday night on Bourbon Street and get drunk; go home Sunday morning, and be starting for the Saints at quarterback at noon on Sunday.

While true, back then a lot of Saints players were with him doing the same thing. It's just how the team rolled in those days.
 
If you really think about it celebrities from tv and movies back in those days look more mature than their age, in comparison to the young celebrities today. Terry Bradshaw looks like he was in his 40s playing in Pittsburgh. Most young players look like they were in their 30s back in the 70s and 80s. Go back and watch old movies. The actors looks more mature back then than they do now.

It was the smoking.

It wasn’t just if you smoked or not, everywhere you went indoors you were inhaling cigarette smoke and just existing in a cloud of smoke … usually from the moment you got home from the hospital as a baby.

Add in the greater awareness of the effects of the sun along with the normalized use of sunscreen and most people aren’t prematurely aging their skin/hair.
 
Stabler was an incredible quarterback---in the 70's. People go on about Brees' arm strength in his later years, he was prime Marino compared to the Snake's run in NO
 
And for reference... Here is Brady at 43

Well it's not really a fair comparison because of whatever "substance(s)" Brady has been ingesting lol.

Plus the premature gray hair doesn't help poor Kenny either lol.
