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.

Magic Johnson joining Josh Harris in bid to own the Denver Broncos.
I’d rather not. Magic Johnson has proven himself to be a distraction at best and something of a locker room cancer at worst. He’s a public face that everyone knows with a large platform and he will give his opinion whether good or bad to the media.
Long time Laker fan. Seen Johnson at his best and worst.
He can be a distraction. His interviews and comments in the media can be damaging. His over the top hyperbole can sometimes sound like a carnival barker on steroids. His desire to be “involved” can be downright damaging at times.
On the positive side, he is a dynamic personality that people respect and gravitate towards. He is definitely a driven to win type personality. And most of all, the man is a businessman. He has created quite the real estate and business empire. When the discussion of a new stadium complex gets started it will be driven by Johnson’s vision of a surrounding development of businesses, residences and the idea of a “ gathering place” not just a sports stadium. It will be grand and Johnson will sell it magnificently!
In reality, he will be a 1-2% minority owner. Yet we would never know it was not his project and team from his media exposure.
I really don’t have strong feelings on the new owner. If Johnson is part of the group that eventually wins the bid, then so be it. But get ready if he does. He will be a new part of Denver culture, for better and worse.
I wouldn’t be opposed to him as long as he’s not a decision maker.
My Opinion isn’t determined by what the Popular Opinion is. Sometimes I agree with the Majority, Sometimes I Don’t. If My Opinion is Different than Yours, I have to Ask One Question:
You Mad Bro?
Don’t Be A Mean Girl
I like the fact that there are a number of potential owners, who are really interested in The Broncos. The more good offers we get the better, because it broadens the search and should improve the odds of a successful new venture. I do want visionary (but not too hands on) ownership, who have big pockets, and want the best for this organization.
