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.

exactly what I was thinking.. hell he already #Tebowed the SI curse!
he's the only athlete to get featured on an si.cover TWICE in 1 month!!
it was almost as if the first time he was there had no effect.. SI curse was like "oh hell nah!" it had to get him twice (3 game losing streak)
Technically the SI curse proved itself. He got away with the 1st cover, but the 2nd one was after the Bears game. And the 3 game skid of terrible play happened.
Oh the curse is real. The list of flogged athletes is longer than the ones who've succeeded. For example, Look at EA NHL. The only one I can think of that had a breakout season the following year was Alexander Ovechkin. That's not to say that their won't be others who overcome the curse. But believe it, the curse is real...very real. The best way to beat it, is to avoid it.
Breese was hurt. He had a slight tear of his MCL I beleive...or it was rumored...and he had to wear that big knee brace, couldn't step into his throws, and throw a lot of pics the first half of that season.
Sean Alexander broke his foot the year he was on the cover as well...Marshal Faulk ended up having a crap season, can't remember if he got hurt. MADDEN curse is for real.
Take Peyton Hillis for example, he is using this so-called curse an excuse for his behavior this season. It wasn't his fault that his agent told him to sit out games in hopes of getting a big lucrative contract, it was a video game's fault.
On a different note, when is EA losing their exclusivity to NFL games?
I think they extended it through 2013, so they won't lose it until 2014 I believe. The next generation consoles will be out around that time so hopefully 2K can get a fresh start with NFL 2K14.
