Good read! Couple quotes:

In the three years John Elway has been in charge, the Broncos have a .708 winning percentage and have made a Super Bowl appearance and three playoff appearances. What's more, he has operated with the kind of panache you would expect from the quarterback who engineered The Drive and led his team to two Super Bowl victories.
Elway is different. Just as he was a once in a generation quarterback, he is a once in a generation quarterback turned executive.

You might be one of the only people who uses the white background. I remember broncomania changing to the white background being one of the many reasons for the mass exodus from there.

I see. I think the main beef with the white background was that it was really hard on the eyes. Especially when you are used to the dark background.

When I worked in an office (I home office now ) the white was better. Now I don't really care, but I prefer the behavior of work friendly mode. It eliminates threads I've read when clicking on the "New Posts" link.
