I'm [cautiously] Optimistic
The Broncos announced their 2006 season yesterday. Here is a printable version. Print it, pin it up next to your computer monitor. Learn it. Love it. You are now free to obsess.
My two comments on the upcoming season, from the schedule:
My two comments on the upcoming season, from the schedule:
- It's hard. Is there an AFC team that was in the playoffs last year that ISN'T on our schedule? I think the early season defining game will be the Patriots game. Yes, the week prior they will play the Chiefs, but one thing I've learned about our intradivisional rivalry games is that they are pure passion play, and could go any which way. But Boston? We SCREWED them last year. At least that is what they think. I think we won a hard fought game. But, we will have to go out to Mass and tell the league that we mean business, and no, it was not some fluky fumble recovery that wins games for us. Osh. I am already nervous.
- The Broncos are hell bent on causing familial strife here in Denver. Every major holiday has a Bronco game (Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve). Start talking to your inlaws today.
