    Default Sacco Sez: Remembering Mr. B

    One year ago today, we lost the great Broncos Owner Pat Bowlen.

    He obviously had a magnificent career, as represented by his membership in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. His many accomplishments both as steward of the Broncos and as a leader at the league level are well documented, but this one-year anniversary brings to my mind a flood of personal memories that remind me of what a humble and great man he truly was.

    I remember Mr. B, and ever so fondly.

    I remember when he had just bought the team, and while this seems inexplicable now, it was I and I alone who picked him up for his first official visit to team headquarters.

    I was naturally nervous, but he put me at ease right away with his calm manner and "every-man" style, and I remember thinking as I drove, "Boy, this might be a really good thing."

    And, of course, it was way beyond good, for more than three decades.

    I wish I was around when Mr. B was at the peak of his almost inconceivably high levels of swagger.

    I would have loved to go to the stadium with my Broncos bretheren for Mr. B day last year.
