Clayton dishes out respect?

by dr.mort on Oct 4, 2009 10:24 PM MDT

No admission of his dastardly ways, erroneous predictions, or egregious vitriol of the past six months, but John Clayton actually put Denver on his positive list today.

Quote:

Broncos are no fluke: The Broncos are for real. They beat the Cowboys 17-10 in what was supposed to start an impossible stretch of games for Denver. As turbulent as the offseason was, head coach Josh McDaniels made the regular season smooth. The Broncos are 4-0 and appear to be big players in the AFC playoff race. Beating the Cowboys was huge. Denver's defense withstood a last-minute drive by Tony Romo. Mike Nolan, the Broncos' defensive coordinator, totally took away the Cowboys' running attack. Like he did in Week 2 against the Giants, Romo made bad decisions. The last pass of the game was broken up by Champ Bailey. If you need to win a game, never throw on Bailey. Romo threw a costly interception in the Broncos' red zone early in the second half. That interception, which was grabbed by Bailey, might have been the turning point. Had the Cowboys settled for a field goal, they would have led 13-7.

Broncos QB Kyle Orton is doing a lot of the same things that made him a winner in Chicago. He completed 20 of 29 passes for 243 yards and two touchdowns. He might not be making spectacular plays like Jay Cutler. But he's winning. Welcome back to the playoff race, Denver.

don't bank on it sticking.

if Denver loses next week, we’ll be in his 4-12 column. What a loser and a hater.

"3rd and 6, Elway shotgun... Elway, scrambling, looking, running-- DIVING!!!-- inside the 5 yard line for a first down! Is he only 37?! How important is this football game? How bad does John Elway want to win this football game? Where you see the quarterbacks go down: Not Elway!"

This dude has no shame....

I’m pretty sure as recent as a few days ago this alien said heknows he predicted 3-13 and it’s still possible. And now? No mention of that. A team that a few days ago could still finish 3-13 is now for real? Did we just beat team God and a bunch of angels? the Cowboys must be damn good if they made this goof flip flop so soon.

I'll make sure this gets in my next "Clayton Watch"

But several commenters here are right: he refuses to acknowledge that he was wrong, he just pretends it never happened and counts on America’s short attention span to forgive him.

What a crock.

Did you read the last sentence of his statement, Denver?? Its dripping with sarcastic scorpion-face poison… can’t you see, Denver?

“Welcome back to the playoff race, Denver.”

I mean just look where he put the comma. That wasn’t necessary. Ugh. He has actually gained ground on the Broncos-fan Most Hated list. There’s no fooling me you black-hearted lich-reporter, i’m on to your tricks a mile away. Make a couple clicks on my windage knob (for all the hot air he’s spewing out) and I’ve still got one right between your eyes you devil snake.

Welcome to the Bronco Bandwagon, Clayton.

It's Orange Crush Time!

rec'd and respected.

TAKE IT!!!

Me too!

This fraud said last week that if we win this game we could win 6 or 7 games this year. What happened Clayton? According to last weeks prediction, even if we won this game we would be the worst 4-0 team in history. Contradicting yourself is the fastest way to lose all of my respect. I will never trust him again… (wait…did I ever trust him in the first place?)

Dude needs a compound sentence or two.

He made my head hurt.

Clayton is a Hobbit.... A sad little man!

He’s the kinda guy who was never athletic. He was never picked to be on teams with his friends, if he had any? He was the little geek in the library learning to hate the thing he wanted to be, a player. He never had a shot at the prom queen….no wonder he’s angry! Go home little man! Take Schlereth and his “chili eating” A** with ya!
