Former Bronco Starts Web Site For Children

Former Bronco Ian Gold is launching a Web site, but it's not to sell sporting goods or to give fans access to him. This Web site will help children learn to write.

The site is whatarekidssaying.com. Gold launched it with the help of his cousin Greg Jennings who plays for the Packers. Their goal is to help infuse children with a passion for putting their thoughts on paper.

"The biggest thing really is just to give them a platform, you know, to be heard," Gold said. "All kids and teens really want is recognition. I've taken trips here and there and that's one of the most consistent things I've seen."

Children can use the site as a diary and compete in poetry and other writing contests. Gold says it will give them a place to share their views and increase their computer literacy skills.

"I really have a heart for writing. I've always been in love with writing ever since I was a kid and I think one of the things kids are getting away from is reading and writing," Gold said. "I think we need to get back to the basics as opposed to kids going out doing things that are not constructive."

The students will also have access to a time capsule.

There they will be able to upload pictures, music, videos and their stories to their own pages. Gold says it will allow the children to see how they progress as writers.

I admire your integrity in carrying out your debt.

But Im pretty sure youre going to be getting ALOT of offers to wager on things ranging from the score of the next game, to tomorrows weather. And what would the wager be? Oh, I dont know.............family photos?

And right now, Im hoping Gold has been staying in shape.

Hopefully, being out of the NFL has helped curb his personality to be more lockeroom friendly, and eager to get in better prep for sundays.
Gold can still fly. Heck, put him at safety.

Gold is out of football for a reason. Lets hope he can successfully "tackle" this endeavor.
