Here's a Thursday edition of Horse Tracks. Enjoy!
What's a good way to sell your brand of green chile? Have former Bronco Mark Schlereth promote it. See here
A Dallas Star knows what Cutler is going through. See here
This article talks about the Broncos regaining the fans "blind faith". See here
Here's a story on what Eddie Royal's impact could be last year. See here
Dave Kreiger talks about how it's not easy for an athlete to call it quits. See here
AFC West
The conquered fader nation signed a former Buc DE. Let's hope they have as much luck as we had with another former Buc, Simeon Rice. See here
The Missouri Indians are going ro release Greg Wesley. See here
NFL News
The Patriots accepted an apology from the Boston Herald for reporting falsely about the team taping the Rams before their first championship. Better late than never right? See here
Not to be outdone, Senator Arlen Specter (R-Pa) wants an independent probe of this scandal. Gee, the Senate can't get an energy policy to reduce gas prices or solve the many other problems this country has, but they can waste time on this. No wonder Congerss has the lowest approval ratings ever! See here
That's all I have. Have a good day!

The Raiders have another decent pickup here.......
Spires was released from the Bucs for salary reasons, and accepted the veteran minimum. Kiff is all about competition, and making people really earn their spot regardless of who they are. Everyone knows Burgess will be at LE, but the Raiders have brought in a couple wild cards in Kalimba Edwards and Spires, the former still on the upside of his career and the latter on the down side, to add to Richardson who showed flashes towards the end of last season. The Raiders also drafted a very interesting DE prospect late in day two name Trevor Scott. Scott should make the team regardless, and Kalimba and Spires will be left to fight for the last spot at DE. I love competition, as Kiff was able to weed a lot of the trash out last season through brutal non stop competition, and hopefully that will continue.

Real Green Chili, u-u-u-h-h-h-m-m-m.
It’s one of those hidden gems of this area. It’s kind of like a spicy gravy with chunks of pork but it is more than the sum of its parts. I love chili burgers: an open faced hamburger, covered with fries, then slop a bunch of green chili on top, sprinkle a little cheese, onion, tomatoes and lettice on the top. Ambrosia! The food of the gods. Then add a little nectar, a good beer. Oh, it’s number two on the list of all the reasons it’s good to be alive.
I’d tell you what number one is but I’m sure you already know and if you don’t, I’m sorry. Lol. But I will tell you what heaven on earth is, marrying a Latina who can make great green chili. That’s what I did. Talk about a one-two punch. Life doesn’t get any sweeter.
If this be Hell, let us make the most of it!

Actually...
...another good reason to go to New Mexico is family! I’m actually going to be there for about 7 days next week visiting family. As far as climate and camping and fishing go, New Mexico is way better than where I’m at now….Omaha, NE! :)

Yeah
But they have a lot of jobs and things to do. Weather just sucks and there are no mountains or trout. :(

What's that line from "Unforgiven"
“Little Bill, I thought you was dead.”
Little Bill responds, “I thought I was too, then I realized I was just in Nebraska.”
or words to that affrect.

Might be some good green chili around them parts.
Oh and BTW, it’s not that red chili is hotter than green chili. It just depends on the chili pepper being used. There’s some mighty hot green chili out there so beware. I just think green chilis taste better than red ones. Just make sure you have some beer handy.

Taos
The missus and I spent our honeymoon in Taos, and drove through Trinidad to get there!

We had snow on May 1st.
I’m not sure but I think a little fell last night too. I know my son in Gunnison was complaining about it because he works outdoors, but he’s about a thousand feet higher.

That "Blind Faith" article...
seems a bit strange.
”...and the depth at receiver is alarmingly thin.”
How is our depth at receiver thin?

Was it just me
or did the article seem to end abruptly
Until Terrell Davis makes it into the Hall of Fame, I refuse to acknowledge the existence of such a place other than the Ring of Fame at Mile High!
Davis to the Hall!

sorry.....
that’s why the “Indy” has little to no readership in Colo Springs. Compare it to Michael Moore at a NRA convention

Right H.
I’m sure this writer is not as interested in the Broncos as the people on this site. He should have just hyperlinked to the January 2008 Denver Post artical that brought him to his opinions.

Not only is Boss not an ILB (he plays OLB)...
...but typically people call 3-4s inside guys ILBs and 4-3s inside guy MLB.
Very good catches Darin. You should write to them and tell them that they need a real writer, like you! With your MHR experience, you could do it.
