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 don't know Hillis from a cup of beans so I have no dog in this hunt. That said I don't see how he is lying here. He either had strep or he didn't. I assume the team doctors know the answer to this. He admits talking to his agent as a friend about the decision to play or not but making the decision himself. You could speculate it was contrived and a business move but I don't see it clear cut - unless I'm missing something here. If he actually had strep I don't know how you second guess this unless you just want to or again I'm missing something.

Just listen to the interview.
"It was my decision." 3 questions later, "I met with team doctors and they decided I shouldn't play."
This guy is a joke. He's TO in a RB's body. I don't trust him as far as I could throw him. After this little charade, I'm sure his teammates don't either.
Thanks Nimrod, you better articulated what I was thinking. But I get questioning his toughness, I mean Romo played with a hole in his lung and he isn't exactly known for being a 'toughguy'.
So now, not only is he fumble prone, he's a lying sack of crap that doesn't care about his teammates. And some people want this diva back??
Lying sack of crap that doesn't care about his teammates? LOL?
He had strep throat, and it would of amazed me if he actually played a few days after getting it. Yeah, some people could probably play thru it but it is painful and could reduce the effectiveness of a player. It takes longer than a few days to recover from such an illness.
Lets put it this way. Brandon lloyd same situation how would everyone act? And before you throw the one year wonder line about lloyd hillis is in the same exact boat only that Lloyds production was much better.
Isn't it funny about how we give passes to certain people, but not to others.
Well you're calling him a diva based off one incident and speculating about other things that may not be true. Now if Hillis actually had a "diva" history, then it could be justified but not right now.
