    You dont change your life based on a 2 person team that you'll never meet nor know/care of your existence?
    The Plan at the moment:

    Draft: Trade a 3rd and 6th this year to a team to move up and get a 2nd next year (this will happen).

    Players I want:
    Jake Ferguson (Jake Butt) or Jelani Woods or Jeremy Ruckert or Cade Otten (owen daniels) at TE- All 4th rd or later.
    Troy Anderson LB 3rd/4th rd (yay Timmy!)
    Neil Farrell, JR DL- run stuffer- bye purcell

    I was genuinely confused by the importance of Nov 4. I know it should matter somehow.

    It is astounding that someone on an Online Forum can get so upset that they get literal anger and an active response to their psyche and persona. Compounded by the thing that always divides those more fragile. Politics.




    Side note*
    11/4 will qualm some, others not. It will take about 3 weeks for everyone to settle in. Look for Thanksgiving-ish for a return of glory.
    I don't necessarily think that everyone who has left did so over hurt feelings. I'm sure some just lost interest or found other outlets for shooting their broncos takes out into the internet.

    I'm of the belief it's other social media platforms more than anything else. 5 years of Broncos suckage hasn't helped either.

    It was meant for king and chaz types. You are absolutely right that Frau, Dave, and many others left for the reasons you stated.

    Yeah reddit and twitter have kinda made message boards irrelevant. No one actually signs up for message boards anymore it doesn't seem. And yeah if we become super bowl contenders again you're probably right that some inactive members might pop back up here.

    Take that back. They all left because of me and I say **** them -- how about them stones!!!


    Seriously, it's a shame, but social media has killed forums, but for some select ones related to tech or other really specialized topics.

    I don't fully get reddit and it seems all over the place, but more and more, when I search to figure out how to do something, reddit is at the top of the search results and has many threads related to what I'm looking for.

    It basically is divided into "subreddits" which more or less each function as their own message board. So I can follow subreddits for, say, the Broncos, the Grizzlies, whatever TV show in watching, whatever game I'm currently playing; so it's basically just a one stop shop for discussing whatever my various interests might be.

    It definitely has its flaws as well, but just the convenience of having all that stuff in one place is what really makes it popular.

    OMG, I just read through the first few pages of that thread.

    Good grief.
