I am grovelling for anyone who has a heart for a pastor who is addicted to Bronco football. I check ebay last night to see what tickets would cost for the AFC Championship game. I figured that I could talk my dad into going with me.
Holy FREAK!!! Could be expensive…around $300 a ticket right now. If I can stumble on some about half that…I’d go in a heartbeat. I’d just drag my dad with me…mom would get over it…eventually. I mean, I’m her son…she’d have to forgive me, right?
To further prove my dependancy on all things Broncos and all things uniforms…I give you the logo history of the Denver Broncos.
WARNING: It isn’t pretty.
First: 1960-1964. Pretty ridiculous. As a matter of fact…it’s horrible. What can you do with mustard yellow and dookie brown? 
Next: 1965-1967. A logo so bad, it only lasted two years. The Broncos dusted off this version for their throwback uni’s a few years ago. Looks like a man trying to strangle a goat.
Next: 1968-1996. I loved this logo for the most part. It was such a massive improvement that they didn’t change it for close to 30 years. However, after 4 incredibly lopsided Super Bowl losses, the logo had come under suspect. Then after that home playoff loss to Jacksonville in 1996, it was proven. The logo had turned. It could no longer be trusted. A new logo was called for.
Finally: 1997-Present. The truth will set you free. And so ended the Bronco Super Bowl curse. For 2 years, the Logo didn’t know what life was like without a Lombardi Trophy. In fact, the Broncos have never lost a Super Bowl wearing this logo. Hopefully, we’ll get to test that theory again this year.
The current logo is absolutely the best logo they have ever had.

its going to be a good game, and i for one always liked jake the snake. i would have him on my team than the most overrated player in nfl history, peyton manning. all i gotta say is he leaves tennesse, and they win a national championship with tee martin.
try http://www.cheaptix.com Some for $110.00
Barry – you about sent me into heart failure…but the $110 is parking pass. Actual seat in Mile High…$450.
I hear you can sign up to dance at half time in groups of 20 or more and get in free. You willin’ to shake your grove and get 19 others to do the same to get in? I would pay money to see that!!
Now why would you want to go to that game, you’ll just have a very long and depressing trip home after the STEELERS win!!!
ahhhhh, Paul…my fantasy football nemesis!! ha haha..
I think not. Do you think they will have to take 2 planes to get Jerome Bettis to Denver? How much have the Steelers paid in overage this year?
Seriously…I love the Steelers, Cowher, and Hines Ward and Big Ben…but not this Sunday.
Whatever the outcome, I sincerely hope the zebras have no part in it!
My pastor is a Broncos AND Steelers fan, so this is his best and worst matchup! At least ONE of his teams will be in the Super Bowl.
Sorry about that potential cardiac bro, I should’ve delved a bit deeper, but it was late.
