Horse Tracks: Happy football day!

The wait is finally over Broncos country, the 2014 NFL season will officially kick off today! Our Denver Broncos host the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday Night Football.

In a few hours from now we'll be putting our final touches on our fantasy football team, ordering a pizza or finishing up our special football dishes, and just sitting back relaxing and enjoying the first NFL Sunday of 2014.

Then later tonight we get to watch our Denver Broncos kickoff the season with a victory against the Indianapolis Colts.

It doesn't get much better then this does it?

So, are you ready?

John Elway has a message for the Lombardi Trophy:

Denver Broncos General Manager John Elway visited with the Sunday Night Football crew on their bus on Saturday. While on the bus he saw the Lombardi Trophy on the bus, and all he had to say was "I'll see you soon".
