Bronco History Lesson - circa 2032 (Visions of a Madman)


Ok folks, there are several things I will need you to do before moving beyond the jump.  First, put your tin foil hats on and open your mind up to my ADHD of an imagination.  Second, know that this is just one of quadrillions of possibilities of our future.  Third, find your sense of humor and try to keep up with the mind of a Zappa.  If you are ready, come with Alice and I as we take a little trip down into the rabbit hole.

Ready...Begin!  Klaatu Barada Necktie

Star-divide

I write to you tonight during the final hours of mankind. The year is 2032 and America's latest dictator has taken control on the Eve of the End of the World. President Barrack Cutler Bush III is the unholy creation of one of George Bush's daughters(we were never told which) and Jay Cutler, just twenty-two years old he has taken full control of America's military and has begun rounding up dissidents/Broncomaniacs.

As a lifelong Bronco fan, I felt it my duty to transcribe the history of the team from the unholy dictator's birth until now. I am sure my 54 years on this Earth will end in the coming hours as being a Bronco fan is now illegal and punishable by death. I can't blame the government for doing so though as I will explain, but first, let's look at the greatest 22 years of Bronco football in all of history. I will keep each relatively short as we have a lot of seasons to cover in a very short amount of time!

2010:

After a stellar 13-3 season the previous season capped by a 23-20 overtime home loss to the New England Patriots in the Divisional Playoffs, the Broncos would storm the league in 2010. Finishing 14-2 on their way to a dominating performance in the Super Bowl over the Farveless Vikings 34-10. Little did anyone know that this would be the beginning of an historic dynasty.

2011:

Perfection. The Denver Broncos would finish 19-0, slaughtering an overrated Chicago Bears team 55-10. Doubters still say that Cutler would have been the better choice at quarterback, but his Super Bowl record 9 interceptions begged to differ. The Broncos had a chance to go for a three peat in 2012.

2012:

The hopes for a three-peat were dashed on December 12th when the poles shifted, sending the Earth and humanity into a 6 month long looney binge. Once sanity returned to the human mind, reconstruction began. Luckily for the Broncos, no players were lost during the chaos that followed the pole shift. Although, the Broncos winning streak ended at 12-0. Maybe a three peat in 2013?

2013:

Many will consider this a throwaway year. Many players were malnurished and struggling to regain their full motor skills - therefore the subpar 10-6 season led the Oakland Raiders to a Super Bowl trophy. Ironically, the Raiders only winning season from 2002 to 2032 occurred when the second best record in football was 9-7. Go Figure.

2014:

With the world back to normal like, the Broncos reasserted their dynasty. Finishing 12-4 on their way to their third Super Bowl title in five years. This time over the always dangerous Alex Smith led 49ers, along with their newly aquired free agent Chad Ochonueve. The Broncos squeaked by 24-21.

2015:

The media finally believes the Broncos to be a dynasty, though they still think the Broncos could have been better if they had stuck with the superior talent in Jay Cutler. The Broncos would steamroll to a 15-1 record and another Super Bowl title over the Detroit Lions, 31-3.

2016:

Injuries plague the Broncos unmercifully, but they still manage a 10-6 record. Unfortunately, the Broncos would be one and done in this years playoffs. The elusive three peat is an unrelenting b**ch.

2017:

Kyle Orton goes down in week 1 with a career ending leg injury, but a previously unknown quarterback comes in by the name of James Elwhy to lead the Broncos to a 14-2 record and yet another Super Bowl trophy.

2018:

Everyone thought the loss of Orton would spell the end of the Bronco dynasty and they would say that if we had only kept Cutler...none of this would have happened! Lucky for us Bronco fans, Orton became the Broncos quarterbacks coach and turned Elwhy into the best young quarterback in the NFL - leading the Broncos to another playoff appearance.

2019:

Having failed to win the Super Bowl in the previous year, the media proclaimed the Broncos to be a failure and that the dynasty was over. Wrong! Broncos roll to a 13-3 record and yet another Super Bowl victory over the Cutler-led Bears, 48-3. Cutler increased his career record of interceptions in the Super Bowl to 17.

2020:

Perfection. For the second time in less than a decade, the Broncos finish a perfect 21-0 during the leagues first 18 game scheduled year. The stage is set for yet another run at a three-peat.

2021:

The NFL, displeased by the outcome, discontinues the 18 game season. The elusive three-peat becomes reality as the 15-1 Broncos destroy the Bears for a record third time in the Super Bowl, 34-0. Jay Cutler would retire in frustration after this game after increasing his Super Bowl interception record to 25. He would be declared mentally insane and spend his days talking in code. It was reported that his only son could understand what he was saying - more on that later!

2022:

Another dominating 14-2 season by the Broncos lead to an unprecedented fourth consecutive Super Bowl title and eleventh overall. The Broncos would destroy the Redskins 42-10 to secure history.

2023:

Elwhy and the Broncos would finish at a less than stellar 11-5, but were able to get healthy by the playoffs to obtain their fifth straight Super Bowl title over the Giants 39-20. Many started calling it the "revenge tour".

2024:

The NFL, concerned about parity forced the Broncos to release half of their roster and stripped the Broncos from having any home games for an entire year. We should have known this was a harbinger of things to come, but the only people who opposed this were us Bronco fans. We lose, going 8-8.

2025:

Refusing to be denied, McDaniels drafted replacements and rebuit the Broncos. Elwhy would lead them to an 11-5 record and a loss in the AFC Championship game to the Cleveland Browns.

2026:

Elwhy and the Broncos would dominate from start to finish enroute to an unbelievable third undefeated season, beating the Cowboys 27-10 in the Super Bowl.

2027:

The NFL season is suspended by Congress as it investigates whether or not McDaniels is guilty of mind control or any other scientific advancements. The government decides it should run the NFL and renames the league the GFL.

2028:

Under the new GFL management, teams no longer have to worry about following the rules. Players become massive specimens of raw muscle and power. The Broncos struggle to find a way to overcome this and barely make the playoffs.

2029:

McD in all his wisdom, develops a serum that he secretly injects into the opposing teams water which effectively neutralizes any juicing compounds within the body. The Broncos head to another undefeated season and another Super Bowl title.

2030:

The Broncos become the only team tested by the GLF for illegal substances, finding none the government cooks their own books and suspends half the team for juicing. The Broncos appeal, but no one cares.

2031:

This time, McD purposely forces his team to lose every other game until the end of the season and finishes 10-6. Once in the playoffs, knowing the GFL could never get through the bureaucratic red tape in time to stop them, the Broncos rallied to win the Super Bowl yet again.

2032:

Desperate for answers and determined to rid themselves of the "McD" problem, the GFL pours all of their money into electing Barrack Cutler Bush III to the presidency. The stunt worked even though Bush is only 22 years old - far too young to meet the Constitutional criteria, but for some reason this doesn't matter. The Nation is united in their hatred of the Broncos.

Barrack Cutler Bush III cultivated a unique hatred of the Broncos that grew out of his own father's mysterious demise over a decade earlier.  Imbued by that insanity, he adhered to his father's word.  The codes Jay Cutler would speak in would lead his young son to believe that Bronco fans were out to destroy America - the problem is, the entire Earth is about to be destroyed by asteroids.  Barrack Cutler Bush didn't care, he was the decider and the only blame to go around was for us Broncomaniacs.

The election occurred while the Broncos were 8-0, but Bush's first action as President was to suspend all GFL games and ordered McD and the entire team to be detained under suspicion of terrorism and plotting to hurl asteroids at the Earth during the Veteran's Day Parade in D.C. I don't know what happened to them, but millions more have been rounded up since for various other "plots against the people".  I can only assume that my time is short, so allow me to summarize the history of the Broncos from 2010-2032:

Record: 311-78

Super Bowl Wins: 13

As you can see, there hasn't been any better time to be a Bronco fan than over the past two decades and who could blame everyone hating us so... it doesn't really matter since the world is coming to end anyway... Wait... I hear something, oh no!  They've found me...GO BRONC

Fun.

I enjoyed the distraction!

hahaha So we'll see who is right about the next few years.

I predicted similar to you for this season (2nd game loss in the post season) followed by a 3-peat. I think 1 of those years we’ll go undefeated (not sure which one). And then a heart-breaking loss while going for #4.

Plus I love your US of the future. As a fun-loving Aussie who likes to shake my head in unbelief at the future of the US, I can see the far future projection happening.

ps. you only confirmed what i already thought.

A little rough on Jay Cutler

You have him tossing 9 interceptions in his first super bowl. That’s a little over the top, don’t you think?

Jay Cutler in a Big Game when it Mattered?

I think it’s more likely 7 interceptions, 3 fumbles, 36:29 of sitting alone on the bench pouting about how awful his players are, 3 commentators in the booth talking about how it’s such a shame the receivers caused that many turnovers, and 139 sports bloggers writing about how the Bears lost instead of the Broncos winning.

Just my theory.

Major error in your future

You seem to have this strange idea that Cutler can keep it together long enough to amass a winning season – he appears to be the perpetual .500 player – what changes?

by Flunkie on Oct 30, 2009 9:01 AM MDT reply actions   0 recs

Besides that one unbelieveable error

the rest of it seems pretty plausable – but Cutler in the SB? As a back up maybe!

by Flunkie on Oct 30, 2009 9:05 AM MDT up reply actions   0 recs

My entire story hinged on Cutler's insanity - caused by the Broncos. lol

I understand that though….perhaps the Bears go in the playoffs as an 8-8 team all three times.

You gotta understand the context of that....read carefully.

The world was in chaos…up was down, left was right, blue was red, ect….of course the raiders would win the super bowl! lol

Totally believable

In 2010 with no caps Al Davis sets new records for individual contracts and attempts to buy the entire Pro Bowl team – he is left pennyless and the bankruptcy court takes over management of the Raiders – 22 guys off the street accept jobs at pennies on the dollar and play scared all season – - much improved Raiders team!

They get a guy from a cell phone store to be thier running back

OMG – bye weeks are painful – look what we resort to!

I forgot to mention...Al Davis pass away before they won the Super Bowl. :P

If only the Bronocs and McD weren't so despised in my parody. lol

America elected a dictator to dispose of all Broncomaniacs after all….a bit over the top I know, but I had to figure out a way to end the madness before I went totally insane and authored an encyclopedic volume of history of that fantasy world I had created……………………..

As the occupier

Of the cell next to yours at Raider Bay Prisoner Camp I must thank you for keeping the true history alive. Many of the future generations will only hear of the “Great Leader” Jay and his misfortune by the now renown “cheater” McD.

Oh oh, they have discovered my illegal internet connection.
They’re coming to take me away ho ho he he ha ha
To the funny farm where life is beautiful all the time
And I’ll be happy to see those nice young men in their clean white coats
And they’re coming to take me awaaaaay ha ha
