Congrats, guys.
What a win yesterday. I’m amazed at what Denver’s doing this season with, as what the Post says, “spare parts.” If anything, those spare parts are turning into valuable assets. Thanks to all the fans here at the MHR for being so awesome and classy. Never met a better bunch of fans. It’s been a fun out of conference palaver but unfortunately, us Bird fans have to worry over our divisional games next and those fans aren’t as easy to deal with. I sure wish they’d take a leaf out of your book!

Just scroll down to get the photo. One of the best sports photos I’ve ever seen.

Does this mean
that we’ll have to start counting Hillis’s helmets flying off (a la Webster)?
Does it count that he also popped off Lawyer Milloy’s helmet?

That's just because
Milloy never buckles his straps! Hillis’ was a genuine pop off ;)

Okay, give Hillis 1.5 helmet pop offs
The future looks so bright that we're going to need blue and orange sunglasses!

Great pic.
If the new guys keep this up, will the paper change their name to the “Rookie Mountain News”?

I need my eyes checked.
I think Pork Chop said something nice about the Broncos! Is that even possible?
