How much do you REALLY value their opinion? There are many opinions HERE that are more acute than most anything you find in the MSM. Expunge the trash my friend, while you still retain sanity.

like…long time ago (last year) i went to the dp cuz i thought i could readyabout the team there…but…wow…the comments…and then i found mhr and…omg…like it was totally cool stuff even a girl could get…and now…i only go to dp went its…like in the horsey tracks…and omg…like…i never never never never read the comments there…cuz they dont know anything and…like…some of them come on mhr sometimes…but they show just how lame they really are….i love mhr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lol. Love the mode of communication.

I understand the general feelings. I’ve finally gotten to where I can read that foolishness to see if any actual news is hidden in the column and not feel any response to the writing. Hating is popular. It’s easy – it doesn’t require research, thought, insight or skill. and, as more of a comment on our culture than on the actual writing – it sells. If it sells, they will continue with it.

I read all of the new posters, articles like our new contributing coach in wt’s article today and am utterly content. You can’t change what others do, but you can improve on it. We, as a group, a cohesive whole, consistently do. It’s quite enough for me.

I realize I shouldn’t care what the MSM thinks and for the most part I don’t. It makes me laugh whenever I hear Solomon from NFL Network and John Clayon from ESPN talk. But what really bugs me is when the Post bashes the broncos. Ever since the RM News what under, the post has been completely un-accountable for what they write. Having no competition allows them to write whatever they want. Then people outside of Colorado see that the Denver Post is trashing the broncos and they all just assume that what the post writes is the opinion of the true bronco fan.

then “gargle” your mouth out with with a little Jack and Coke. That seems to take the bad taste out, but still leaves a lingering nasty thought to hang on to.

..a couple of days ago. So when your local guys are desperate enough to call ‘no comment’ and ’we’ll handle that internally’ propoganda, you can be reasonably sure that the bag of easy spins and stories is getting painfully low. In short, they’re starting to act like the herion addict that doesn’t have a spoon left to scrape.

Don’t count out the fact that the MSM as we’ve come to know it is a dying animal. A cornered animal bites, and I would expect more of the same before its over.

I also don’t think its as much up to the individual writer anymore anyway. Krieger has changed noticably since changing rags. Part of this is business driven. All they have left are the trolls and you can be sure they’ll pander to them.

it was the negative reporting and the team bashing comments that drove me away from the dp back in april. I would have gone nuts if I hadn’t stumbled across the MHR.

As so many perceptive fans have noticed Josh McDaniels is indeed trying to ruin the Broncos. Put yourself in his place. All he has to look forward to is 16 games of intense pressure, always being second-guessed. If he can ruin the team and get himself fired for incompetence before the season even starts, he’s out from under! Wouldn’t you do the same? But in trying to make it look good he may have gone too far and miscalculated. What if, after foolishly retaining the entire offensive line as well as the running back and line coaches, after bringing in a QB capable of spreading the ball around and the best RB in the draft, after extensively upgrading the secondary and restocking the defensive line, the Broncos turn out to be more formidable than anyone could have guessed? In that case he’ll be forced to endure the entire 17-week regular season, maybe even the postseason. Bet you didn’t think of that, McSmartypants. Pretty dumb if you ask me.

I agree this has been a trying off-season—this will be my 49th year of following the Broncos—and its been one of the strangest I’ve seen. Keep in mind, however, that I spent the first fifteen or so years watching the team lose or barely breaking .500. The flip side of that is the Broncos have been a team of respect for over thirty years—maybe that’s why we fans love them so much. For me the Broncos were a team I loved because I love the Rocky Mountains….and after a handful of frustrating years—they didn’t let me down.

I also agree with you concerning McDaniels….this guy wants to win. I have also been impressed with how he’s faced all this adversity. When asked the tough questions about the happenings with Marshall, or whatever, he immediately brings the conversation back to football and building a team. I like that—this is what’s been missing the last few years—pure ‘football talk.’

I think we are going to be the “Surprise” team in the NFL this year. Let the MSM go their way—they are lost.

Romo and the Cowboys, Tomlinson (or Rivers) and the Chargers, etc… while the MSM is lacking in good information lately, it’s not like their comment isn’t valid. Denver isn’t easily tied to a star other than Bailey. A lot of people can connect them to Royal, but he’s not yet on that premier level. Cutler was and Marshall is on that level… I wouldn’t read too much into the “face of the team” comments, but there is something to it. These new Broncos have a lot of change, we’re not sure what their thumbprint on the football field looks like yet and we’re hoping someone like Moreno can be the new face of the franchise (in a positive way).

maybe we don’t have someone that the rest of the country recognizes as “face of the team” type player. But the article was in the denverpost! I don’t expect people from the east coast to know who Ryan Clady and Peyton Hillis are, but there should be more respect from the post.

The Wilcots piece of NFLN sets a new standard for shamelessness. Dig the footage of Kyle Orton rolling left and throwing…I mean did I really just watch an employee of the NFL’s own network ignore reams of file footage in order to prove the weakness of a right handed QB’s arm by showing him trying to throw while rolling left?

Did I really see that package and sold as a final product for public consumption?

Is there even a line left between check out line journalism and what we call the MSM?
