PrintMile High Report has entered the 'terrible two's', turning two years old on Sunday. It was two years ago I started MileHighReport looking to provide Broncos fans all over the world a positive place on the web to talk about, learn about, comment about Denver Broncos football in a laid back atmosphere.
I wanted MileHighReport to have that "Cheers" feel, where everyone knows your name and they're always glad you came. Most importantly, I wanted Broncos Fans to have a site that was worthy of them, the greatest fans in the world.
Two years later, MHR has exceeded every one of my expectations. It has been a labor of love. There are so many people to thank I could spend all day, and I definitely want to thank the contributors to MHR - Styg50, HoosierTeacher, Zappa and MDierk -- but most importantly I want to thank you, the reader, members, commenters and lurkers of MileHighReport.com. It is because of you that I, and the rest of the contributors, do what we do and why we love it so much.
Here's to the past 2 years, with eyes focused on the next 2, and beyond. Rest assured the Denver Broncos are well on their way back to dominance, and MileHighReport.com will be right there to be....

you've enhanced my Broncos experience
a hundred fold. Thank you for all you do, Guru, Styg50, HT, Zappa, and MDierk. Like beer, my wife, and my kids, life is made better with this site. Congrats on entering the terrible 2’s!
I wish Woody Paige was our coach!
Awesome Place
I can’t remember the day I joined, but I remember you promoting your articles on Broncosfreak, and I remember that they were good stuff.
Then I found out about the podcasts; they were downloadable, so I got the first 12 or so and dumped them on my iPod and listened to them nonstop on the bus ride, on the way to class, and at work. I even got a mention as ‘some guy who was crazy enough to want to listen to all of the podcasts nonstop’.
I have learned so much about football and the Broncos, and this site has added so much to the Broncos online community.
Thanks!
Happy Birthday to Mile, Happy Birthday to High, Happy Birthday Reporort, Happy Birthday to You!
You guys should thank God that I am typing and not singing.
Broncos broncos everywhere and all the league did blink,
Happy Birthday MHR!
Mike Clark…..ditto to me as well. lol

Happy Birthday
This is a great site, you guys run a very informative site. Keep it up for a long time.
Go Broncos!
Hey, I need some advice.
Do you guys think my new signature is too harsh?
Broncos broncos everywhere and all the league did blink,
Broncos broncos everywhere think moldy faiders stink!
I thought about following it up with:
The lice was here
The lice was there
The lice was all around.

harsh? on fader fans?
Is that a trick question?

Good, although I might drop the second line when I visit their site.

Now
I like it! Truer words could not be spoken
It reminds of the Samuel Taylor Coolidge poem, which Iron Madien made into a song. Rime of the Ancient Mariner.

Thanks Bronc...........sd
“The Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner” is one of my favorite poems.

its funny
I learned about him thru music and not from HS. It made me want to read his poem. The only book we ever had to read in English/American Lit was Lord of the Flies.

Uhm, er,
you have really desecrated “Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner” with that one. Just sayin’.

Happy Birthday
Thanks for a wonderful site to get all my Broncos news and to to hear real fans speak.
For the love of the animals. 24
It feels like
MHR and the Broncos are both growing together.
Here’s to one of the greatest relationships in blogdom, between a team and its fanatics!!
Happy Bday MHR!

Happy BDay
I think the Broncos celebrated their own terrible twos last year in prep for MHR.
Victor Frankl:
What man actually needs is not a tensionless state but rather the striving and struggling for some goal worthy of him. What he needs is not the discharge of tension at any cost, but the call of a potential meaning waiting to be fulfilled by him.
Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms – to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.
Happy Birthday MHR.
I’ve learned more about the nuts and bolts of football in the last two years than in the 50+ others. Thanks and may we have many more.
If this be Hell, let us make the most of it!
BTW...
… I love the avatars.

Two years old on Sunday 8/24?
Well then, MHR and I share a birthday. Happy birthday to me! (And MHR….) :-D
Almost to the point of not giving a flying fart....
Happy Birthday to you too!
Is your sister a twin? I’m wondering if she gets a happy birthday too!

Actually no, we're not
I’m 2 years older than she is, but we’re so close that we might as well be. We’ve always been best friends, share a room, talk every night, etc. (Yes, nauseating, I know…)
Almost to the point of not giving a flying fart....
Is she learning about football?
I recall you wrote you were trying to teach her. If so, I hope she ends up orange and blue!

She does watch football
and enjoys it, and roots for the Broncos, so she’s good. She doesn’t know the game the way I do, but supports Colorado teams.

Good job!

Thanks so much!
It’s great to have an online outlet to speak to other Broncos fans, and I am incredibly glad i found MHR.
Thanks Guru!
Thanks for everything guys
and Happy Birthday to the MHR. I couldn’t agree more with davecheffy….bring on the faders!! I’m looking forward to my first season as part of the “cheers” gang.
Happy 2nd Birthday!
I found MHR shortly after I deployed for a one year tour to Northern Kuwait in the fall of 2006. Being able to maintain linkage with such a dynamic segment of America really helped me grind through the deployment month after month.

Happy birthday!
I love the entrepreneurial drive to create this site, and the passion as a Broncos fan.
How did you get this blog on this network? How did it all come together?
Go Broncos!
To make a long story short....
I had a general sports blog and approached the guys at SBNation. Through several conversations, I decided to focus my blog specifically on the Broncos and the rest is history….

LOVE, DEDICATION, KNOWLEDGE, INSITES, LOVE, DEDICATION........
HARD WORK! I, as a BRONCOS FAN, can not thank this site, and the contributors enough, 4 the constant input that keeps all of us tuned in and tuned up! It is with a great deal of gratitude that I say HAPPY B DAY, and there had better b many more! Otherwise, I will simply not know what to do, where to go, or who to talk 2!
You have given us all, education, information and a place to voice our opinions, and like another fan responded, you always seem to post “something” at least every day. Not like some fan support networks in some other towns. Again, Thanx from all the BRONCOS FANS, who will continue to contribute to the fun and games here on MHR!
