Man hugs and fist pumps dominated my life over the past two weeks.
Yesterday, I returned from a thirteen-day cross-country road trip that culminated in a college reunion (a “brounion”) two weekends ago in central New York. It was a weekend of debauchery. It was a weekend of memories. It was a weekend of man hugs [...]

Eight years and two days ago, the course of NFL history changed. History has since been revised. Thank you, Morris C. Lewis.
It was the Hit Heard ‘Round the World. Down 10-3 to the New York Jets with five minutes remaining, the New England Patriots faced 3rd and 10 from their eighteen yard-line. On the [...]
The Denver Broncos are a mystery wrapped in an enigma. They are far and away the most puzzling team in the NFL. Every facet of the 2009 Broncos is new. Josh McDaniels’ roster is a patchwork of question marks.
It is easy and tempting to immediately dismiss question marks as flaws, so proceed with caution [...]

Hypocrisy stands at the root of my issues with embattled Broncos wide receiver Brandon Marshall. His freakish strength and unparalleled ability to create plays after the catch do not mitigate his criminal record. It is the NFL’s duty to discipline Marshall when he steps out of line. As long as Marshall beats a criminal charge [...]

I constantly tell my friends from other parts of the country that Denver is a Broncos town. We have the Nuggets, Avalanche, and Rockies, but we just don’t love these other teams in the same way we’d instantly take a bullet for our Broncos. Denver bleeds blue and orange instead of blue and gold, blue [...]
