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.

The local sports show on TV had passed along the report also, don't feel bad. I work in an office full of Eagles fan, and the whole place was stirred up
Portis not injured, as reported by CBS SportsLine.com
Sept. 9, 2004

Contrary to a CBS SportsLine.com breaking news bulletin from CBS Sports insider Billy Devaney, Washington Redskins running back Clinton Portis will not miss significant time this season with an injury.
CBS Sports, Devaney and SportsLine.com regret the error, which was prominently displayed on CBS SportsLine's home page for about 5 minutes late Thursday afternoon. It was egregious and, frankly, unforgivable, and we apologize to our readers, Portis and to the Redskins for publishing the misinformation.
Accurate information is a user and reader commodity we take very seriously, and this story did not meet those standards.
I wonder how many fantasy football players tried to trade Portis when they heard the news, then kicked themselves in the butt when they found out it was false?

The boys at NFL-Fans.com spotted it right away and it was discovered to be a fake. I guess it happens alot.
