The Curse of Brett Kern

7

I’m not sure about you, but I don’t believe in curses. Which is exactly why we need to remove the current curse that has afflicted our Denver Broncos. Perhaps you’ve hear the folklore by now, but if not, let me bring you up to speed on the legend. Last season, the Broncos started the season 6-0. But they probably didn’t deserve this record. In the opener, they needed a miraculous last-minute tipped touchdown pass from Kyle Orton to Brandon Stokley to pull out the win. In week five against Dallas, Champ Bailey made two miracle plays in the last minute of the game to preserve the victory. But there they were—a glorious 6-0 start. All the little Broncomaniacs were taking their vitamins and falling asleep at night with visions of the playoffs dancing through their heads. It appeared as if rookie head coach Josh McDaniels had been blessed with some outstanding karma. You’d think that he would have taken that karma and retired for a few days to spend time with his family. Instead, he cut the punter.
