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.

I just finished "The Long Dark Tea-time Of The Soul" by Douglas Adams (author of the Hitchhikers guide series)
This is an unrelated story but I have read 7 different books by Adams and I put this one narrowly behind the original Guide.
I'll duel you left-handed
"I fell in love with football as I was later to fall in love with women: suddenly, inexplicably, uncritically, giving no thought to the pain or disruption it would bring with it" - Nick Hornby from Fever Pitch
That might be my favorite all-time book, and at worst it's top 5!
I just finished reading Oliver Twist about a month ago...
I started The Idiot by Dostoyevsky a few weeks ago...I'll be reading it for a little while probably.
"The Gagne T-shirt jersey comes with a complimentary can of gasoline and a set of matches."
I never end up reading a whole book... I do not have the time or the patience for it...
I read almost all of "Ideas of the Great Philosophers" by Sahakian
and before that "Blood Sisters" by Marilyn Yalon, which is a collection of diaries from women who lived during the French Revolution... It was research for the novel I am writing...
I think the last book I read in it entirity was "Blood and Gold" by Anne Rice...
i finished dostoyevsky's "the possessed" a few weeks ago. he's one of my favorites.
after that i started "more guns, less crime" but it was a bit too statistic intensive for me so i abandoned it for now.
currently i'm working on "the odyssey"
I love the Odyssey. I had to read it in high school, and honestly that was one of very few that I have reread since then. I am actually crossing my fingers that they will remake the movie on the heels of Troy's success. But only if Sean Bean gets to play Odysseus again.

i knew the general story, but had never read it. it's great. i'd love to see another movie (i think there already is an old one). but unlike troy, i'd prefer they put the gods into it. taking the gods out ruins the story for me. not that i didn't enjoy the story as presented in troy, its just that i prefer the original.
