Being a coach is in Jeremy Bates' blood.  See here

I have another gambling site with the Broncos preview and odds of winning the AFC.  See here

Even USA Today has a list on top rookie rushers.  Ryan Torain is on the list.  See here

Fox Sports gave our team a little more respect than ESPN.  See here

Broncos Erik Pears was listed on the Mountain West Conference 10th anniversary team.  See here

Why hasn't Eddie Royal signed yet?  Easy!  He was getting his picture taken for his rookie card.  See here

AFC West

Where do you go when the Missouri Indians don't want you?  Simple!  Join the conquered fader nation!  Greg Wesley signed up for Al's bunch.  See here

A paper in California listed 10 key issues facing the conquered fader nation.  Only 10?  The writer didn't put much thought into this one.  See here

Think we have some long odds?  Check out the Missouri Indians.  See here

That's all I have today.  Have a good one!

Like an idiot

I put my money on Denver when the odds were lower. I got 15-1 for the AFC championship (now 22-1) and 30-1 for the Super Bowl (now 50-1). One other wager sportsbook offers is total number of wins for the season. Denver is set at 7.5, but surprisingly as the payoff for Denver winning the division, conference or super bowl have gotten higher, the payoff for them winning more than 7.5 has gotten lower. Used to be you had to bet $1.50 to win a dollar and now it is up to $1.65. (Not a huge difference, but it runs counter to the other trends and I was really hoping it would drop since Denver going at least 8-8 seems like a sure thing to me)

On the brighter side, I put money on the Saints at 14-1 and 40-1 odds respectively before they dropped to 9-1 and 25-1

for my information

would that be FMI? anyways, is there a reason some of the horse tracks links have been underlined and in purple?

It happens when I am entering a link on the new story....

for some reason the link never goes where i have my cursor (it ends up at the top of the entry) and i have to cut and paste the link. Sometimes it comes out purple and underlined. By no means is it intentional or give preference for one story over the other.

fader nation is a conquered nation

The creator of the following names:

conquered fader nation
Phyllis and his merry men

yeah

the ones that are underlined have a span tag around them, I would guess that is somehow added by the editor in the cut and paste

Sorry, posted too soon. Was going to add that if you have access to the stylesheet you could probably add a rule to mask that problem.

Sputtering News

I was reading the Sporting News’ List of the top 25 LB in the NFL and DJ Williams didn’t even make the wait until next year list. Yeesh. They did list a Bronco as the #3 center in the league, but it was Ben Hamilton, not Tom Nalen. Did I miss something?
