Let's Win With Class; the Bronco Way!

by the Bradfather on Dec 4, 2009 3:07 PM MST

For more than 20 years, I have been proud of my Broncos. From the days of studs like John Elway, Simon Fletcher, Shannon Sharpe and Steve Atwater to present times with Kyle Orton, Tony Scheffler, Darrell Reid and Brian Dawkins, I've never been ashamed to wear the orange and blue every weekend, win lose or draw.

This is because while other teams have been embroiled in significant (self-imposed, let me make that quite clear) controversy, we've stayed aloof of much of that, thanks to Mr. Bowlen, the greatest owner in sports!

Thus, it's like my parents have told me all my life when disciplining, or even exhorting me to be a better individual, "Brad, we expect better from you than the rest."

I think that's what we expect of our Broncos. Not only do we want them to beat the trash out of their opponent every week, we want them to be dignified. In other words, we don't do what the Chargers and their loser friends do when we win. Thus, we can expect a lot more class atop the AFC West (hopefully this year) in the near future once San Diego is consistently dethroned.

I just love having the likes of Brian Dawkins and Darrell Reid here. Not only do they wreak havoc on the field every week, they're out helping those in need in the community. This is a far cry from the likes of Travis Henry and Daryl Gardner. How often did we win and look good with those losers?

The truth is the Broncos are at their best on the field when the players on the roster are studs on the field and gentlemen off it. I love this team in every way, so let's go 8-4 and much like the Chiefs fans on Arrowhead Pride, let's show class.

GO BRONCOS!!!

Hope to see both teams playing their best on Sunday!

Great sentiments,

and this is exactly why I love my Broncos. This is a class organization, unlike my dad’s Cowboys. Look no farther than the Mile High Salute, the single classiest end-zone celebration in the history of football. I love it, and I want it back. I know that’s why I love Hillis so much, because HE saluted. Lately, the only MH salutes have been by the likes of Jones-Drew and that…. specimen…. from sd.

With ya all the way.

And agree that the interaction with KC has been good, especially within division.

Good call!

Especially about dethroning Oakland Raider South! I hate seeing those accomplished-nothing, smug bastards atop a division with classy organizations like Denver and KC (even though I still hate the Chiefs ;-) around.

Brad, I expected much better from you

Just kidding! LOL Great post! Could not agree more. Thank you lord for B Dawk, D Reid, and C Bailey!!

"All we're trying to do is win the *********** game!" -- Josh MF McDaniels tearing into his offensive line after three false starts in the red zone. The tirade turned the tide of the game, and the Broncos dominated from that point on.

I wish Travis...

could’ve at least trafficked me some decent stuff. Buncha cut-up, terrible dope :p.

Because Montana has no professional sports, I gotta support the land of my birth.
