No one gave us a chance. The hated, powerful Patriots were coming to town to embarrass the Denver Broncos and go to the Super Bowl. It was if it was just an annoying stop on their way to being anointed World Champs again. But wait, some guys in Denver decided that they just didn’t want things to go that way. Despite the officials making bad call after bad call against them, in the end the Denver Broncos won and are now headed to their 8th Super Bowl which is tied for the most in history. Now it’s only the morning after, but get ready as no one will once again give us a chance against the Carolina Panthers. Finally one sportscaster said this morning, I’m done doubting the Denver defense! Maybe there are a few guys around now on our side.
We made it down to Elway’s (restaurant) by 10am for a good brunch before the game. By 11:15 we were in the stadium with 77,000 plus crazy fans. There really weren’t very many Patriot fans. Nothing like last week when there were lots of Steeler fans. From kick off until the game ended, the crowd and us, never stopped screaming and yelling and cheering for our team. We took the lead early and never trailed. It was a tough defensive game but our defense destroyed the Patriots and pounded Brady (their QB) time after time. In the end it came down to them trying to tie the game on a 2 point play but it wasn’t in the stars. It was electric, historic and something everyone there will remember for their entire life. 2 weeks and one more win to go.
We made it home by 7pm and began to wind down. Everyone was still pumped, hell, we’re still pumped this morning! Anyhow back to work and school but it was one for the ages, by the way, Lori, Jag and I will be communicating by writing all day as all three of us have lost our voices from yelling all afternoon! Go Broncos and God Bless.
