Anthems and Protests ---
While we certainly understand the frustration by fans on all sides of the discussion, we have decided to keep the Broncos Country message boards separate from politics. Recent events have brought the NFL to the forefront of political debates, but due to the highly emotional and passionate discussion it tends to involve, we think it’s best to continue to keep politics and this forum separate. Yes, the forum is meant for discussion, but we’d like to keep that discussion to football as much as possible.
With everything going on in our country, it would be nice to keep our complaints and cheers purely related to football here. If you feel passionately, there are plenty of other outlets available to you to express your opinions. We know this isn’t the most popular decision, but we ask that you respect it.
Thank you for understanding.

Well, I'll give up cleaning the filter on my dryer. I'm sure my lint will appreciate that. Oops, I'm not Catholic...

Do you have to give it up for good or just for a certain number of days?
Just 40 days 420.
Remember the movie 40 Days and 40 Nights? That's what he was doing. It was Lent.
However, not being Catholic, it's nice not to have to do this...hehehe...However, the premise of 40 days is a good one and is used throughout the Bible.
I'm not sure what I'd give up. I know I'm always amused by my friends' "sacrifices"
They always choose something like candy or some such thing that really isn't that hard to give up for 40 days in the first place. It's pretty funny.
I think the hardest thing for me to give up would be either T.V. or using the Internet...I'm always on this bloody thing.

Some Catholics would consider it a private matter....between them and God.
Of course, during Lent, friday meals usually consist of 1 main meal (fasting) and no meat (abstaining).
Being as broke as I am, though, that's nothing new.....

I'm not Catholic but my dad was, so out of respect for him we were asked to give up something we liked until Easter. So I think I will give up ....oh no not that.....I'll give up peanut butter. That is a huge weakness of mine. If I buy it I eat it straight out of the jar. Has to be Jiff Creamy, no other brand. Occasionally it makes it to a English Muffin and it's so thick that it drips off the sides, add a nice cup of coffee and we're good to go, but it rarely makes it that far
