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 that was a fun start to the season..a near fight in a non points pre-season event...i predict a record amount of fights & confrontations this year.
i think we are in store for a hell of a ride this year!

Lots of fun. Your Tony had a good showing, you should be smiling.
Less horsepower this year to help the Toyos lol.
Big Carl looks funny in one. His car was leaning left and sparking up the track lol.
Those spoilers sure looked skimpy; bet the air is way different this year again.
They will learn the new air as they go.
Yeppers PA, I'm excited too. This is going to get us through to the next Bronco season !
Right now is the Front Row Quals.
I'm going to have to get home from work this Thursday in time to watch the Duels !!!
Knockout qualifying for the Daytona 500 is stupid. A bunch of cars got wrecked, qualifying for a qualifying race. Knockout qualifying doesn't work for plate tracks, yet they brought it to the 500 even though the old format worked fine.

yeah it's a bad format for daytona & talladega. not sure if they will change anything or not but it just looks so stupid but here's a thought...
just do away with qualifying on the plate tracks, because in all honesty we all know starting position is absolutely meaningless in those races. just do a random draw & save everyone the grief.

Though still stupid, that sounds slightly better than what it was...2:30 is not much time & won't allow for any sitting around or else they won't even get a timed lap in.
Obviously nobody likes it including the drivers, so i wonder what nascar would do if they all just sat there til the clock expired & nobody records a time ha ha!
The duels were pretty good, I was happy to see David Ragan race in after giving his points to his new teammate it almost blew up in their face. Also I see Denny Hamlin still can't drive a plate track without wrecking half the field. Hopefully the 500 will be a competitive one and not follow the leader

Reports: Kurt Busch suspended by NASCAR: #41-Kurt Busch has been suspended indefinitely, according to ESPN's Marty Smith and multiple reports. Earlier Friday it was ruled that Busch smashed his ex-girlfriend Patricia Driscoll's head against his motor home wall Sept. 26 at Dover International Speedway, according to the conclusions of a Kent County (Del.) family court commissioner who granted Driscoll's request for a protective order Monday. Busch was scheduled to race Sunday at Daytona International Speedway, where he was slated to start 24th in the Daytona 500, the sport's biggest event.(ESPN)

Wow don't know what to say, I bet lawyers get involved in this

I'll just say this...i would hope the truth comes out either way & i would hope he did not do what he is accused of but if kurt really did those things, then he deserves to be suspended but more importantly charged with whatever the law is for the crime because it's a serious situation.
There is absolutely no place for domestic abuse in any walk of life, this isn't about nascar or football (ray rice & others) but this is an issue across the board of life in general & needs dealt with swiftly.
"A Kent County Family Court Commissioner said it is more likely than not that NASCAR's Kurt Busch committed an act of abuse last September."
Really?
"Busch's attorneys filed a motion Thursday to re-open the protection order hearing. They claim that multiple witnesses have come forward since the hearing's conclusion and provided information that contradicts versions of the events, and asked Jones to delay his opinion until ruling on his motion.
In a letter to attorneys, Jones did not discount that motion and wrote he decided to publish the opinion, as scheduled, because his reasoning may offer some clarity regarding the motion to reopen."
I'm not very confident in this Jones person.
If Busch did what he's accused of, yes, he deserves what he's getting and more. But, "he probably did it"?
Also, in the beginning, Driscoll said she went to a near by bus. I wonder if that person has said anything?

I agree, i'm not a Kurt Busch fan, and domestic violence is seriously wrong, but just how the NFL dragged their feet with Ray Rice, I think Nascar has jumped the gun with Kurt Busch. He hasn't even been proven guilty yet, just a restraining order was issued. And he likely committed an act? Where is the proof? This suspension, if warranted, should have waited till after a guilty, or not guilty verdict was reached. Kurt's appeal is being heard today but he still won't race in the 500 if its lifted. Either way I see this getting ugly with him and Nascar

I agree. Two extremes.
They've taken all of Kurt's merchandize out of the official store.
Again, reputation is playing a big part in this. He's a "known hot head" so he must be guilty. Who has not lost their temper, ever? Even laid back "I'm so cool, I don't need to get mad" Johnson has had his moments. (Sorry Jimmie fans ).
Oh, and in your other comment about Hamlin and Patrick? I disagree.
