The Sam Adams
column is pretty good, in that he lays into the negativity of the posters a bit, and calls a few of em out. I bet he would do something with MHR, and if he enjoys fielding discussions like the Shaun Alexander one, then I’d guess Guru could get a good rant going with him…

The first story irked me a little. Firstly, Cutler didn't grow up in the south...
He’s from freakin’ Santa Claus, Indiana and the last I checked Indiana fought for the North, not the South. Actually, that was the only part the really irked me…the rest o the story was aight.

dug up some good stuff, including this gem:
The Broncos didn’t get their first touchdown from outside the 9-yard line last season until their sixth game, and their offense didn’t score from outside the 20 until its 10th game.
I think right now we have to balance the obvious tendency towards pass (and the obvious correlation to Cutler’s Pantheonic ability) with Schlereth’s observations that correlate to just how young everyone is and how many new people need to pick up on new jobs:
From an objective distance, former Broncos guard and ESPN football analyst Mark Schlereth had a different perspective on the Broncos’ first two preseason games. He noticed fullback Cecil Sapp and Graham staying in on most plays for extra protection. With the inexperienced Ryan Harris at right tackle and Ryan Clady at left tackle, Schlereth believes the Broncos are throwing more in the preseason because they want to sort out their protection packages.
The answer lie in between. It is important that we get the young/new guys fast tracked for the protection schemes because we are going to be throwing our way to leads and cleaning up with the run. Mixed in will be two dynamic backs that can threaten run or pass from any formation. 53% pass 47% run for the year. Balanced but with a slight bias favoring our greatest talent on the team.

I wonder how much Prater had to pay for replacing Hall's windshield.
fader nation is a conquered nation
The creator of the following names:
conquered fader nation
Phyllis and his merry men
Depends on what hall is driving these days
I’m thinking a used monte carlo or maybe a 96 Impala….
I’ll bet Hall is excited for his contract to come up next year. I think Denver will be paying him if he stays healthy this year….

I am assuming a GT
*Note: not hall’s actual car…
But I think to find the best lines in the series you need to go back a little farther….

and the overall negativity is why I quit reading the RMN, and DP. I dont mind criticism, and good discussions. Thats why I come here. I can get a good debate on any subject good or bad, no name calling and trolls. I am glad to See Adams calling those people out. But usually the real neagative people wont come to a site like this, because they will get shot down and shown as the fools they are
