Why I love 1 Brandon and hate another

Lloyd versus Marshall. Besides the fact that Lloyd is having a monster season and Marshall is having a pretty dismal year, there is another, more important reason why I hate Marshall and love Lloyd. This morning I woke up to read that Lloyd was asked about Denver fans. I'd like to contrast his answer with one that Marshall gave a couple years back when we got smoked by the Chargers here at home. Most of you see where I am going with this...


After a 41-3 loss to the Chargers on our home field October 7, 2007, Brandon Marshall had this to say to the Denver fans who left before the 4th quarter (myself included)...

Brandon Marshall wasn't so kind."Don't boo us when we're down," he pleaded. "That's bandwagon. ... I love you all to death, but at the same time, that's not first class."

Now...compare that to what Brandon Lloyd had to say about Denver fans yesterday...

Brandon Lloyd: I think the Broncos fans have been getting a lot of flack for the way they have treated the team this year, but I think they are justified for their position.

Because when we show up to that stadium, it's not empty, it's sold out. They are giving us an opportunity to perform. It would be different if it was halfway full to start the game. Then it would be like, "Oh, the people here aren't supporting us, they aren't cheering or us." But they are showing up for us, so as players we need to perform and give them something to cheer about give them something to be excited about. So I don't blame the fans at all.


for me...enough said about Brandon!
