MP's Broncos Update

Former NFL Commissioner Pete Rozelle convinced "all the league's owners to adopt revenue sharing, arguably the most successful form of socialism in U.S. history. The reason the NFL is so dominant is because the NFL is basically Marxist. This was Rozelle's greatest coup, and everybody knows it. But you'd never guess that from watching the NFL Network. Marxism is not a talking point." -Chuck Klosterman

Regarding McDaniels/Profanity-gate: I don't think the guy should have apologized for anything. He didn't say anything unreasonable in the circumstances; in fact he didn't say anything that I haven't said at my job (which is moderately comparable). I think he apologized because he is a caring parent, which is a good thing, but I hope he doesn't change his ways. I like his fieriness.

Daily Thought - how special for you who visited today!

Jerry Rice is now the third-string receiver for the Broncos. While I love Jerry Rice, and while he is unarguably the greatest receiver in the history of the game, not to mention an intelligent athlete worthy of being a role-model, I think it might just be a harbinger of ill-tidings when your third best receiver is over 40 years old and had to be talked out of retirement. Could someone please lend a bottle of stickum to Darius Watts? Watts is tall, fast, and gets open. He just can't catch the ball - a minor prerequisite for being an NFL receiver. Please, Darius Watts, catch the ball!!!
