I even like the band Cake, I have them on my iTunes and I wanna listen to them right now. Why have them on your music device and not listen to them? They’re an underrated band, I put everything on random and when they come up I’m bobbing my head. Of course I want Cake and listen to them too.

Probably the strongest post of your tenure

Great, now I'm craving cake! I definitely want to have some and eat some!

The culture of the team goes from the top down and we are starting to see that happen.

My big hope now is that Payton gets the offense and Russ back on track as we stabilize things for the first times since Kubiak left and I believe that is exactly what he will do. Between this and driving by the stadium the other day and seeing a GINORMOUS new screen being added to the stadium I believe we have finally entered a new golden age of Broncos Football.

Am I full of hopium and copium? No. Just caffeine and whatever IPA is still in my system from last night.

UNREALISTIC HYPE BEGINS NOW

Screen inside the stadium or external?

"Letting go of yet another dirty day"

We're living Comfort Eagle with these owner's:

The new owners are off to a solid start thus far into ownership.

The stadium is going to look so much nicer when it's done remodeling. The upgrades were much needed.

My son is on a Cake kick right now.

Cake kick.

Say it out loud. It's got some funk.

I love the new owners so much I am thinking of taking a side job at Wal Mart just to be a part of the team.

So far, so good though.

This speaks to our new ownership group IMHO. No matter how you slice it our ownership group is made up of winners. You can dislike their politics, their business practices etc. but there is no denying that the Penners/Waltons actively sought out accomplished individuals driven to win at whatever line of work they may be in. The race car driver, a black female conservative politician (basically a unicorn that must have faced battles I can't even imagine to get where when has gotten in life) another black female business savant in Melody Hobson.

I freaking love this ownership group.

Strong post. I said at the time of purchase that what I was most impressed about was the 3 minority owners they allowed into the ownership pool. They didn't need their money, it was strategic. These people are all accomplished individuals in their own right. They aren't there just to check off a diversity box. Sir Lewis Hamilton is a successful race driver, and is Knighted. Melody Hobson is an accomplished financier, and married to George Lucas. And as you said, besides being former Sec of State & Stanford Provost, Condi is an avid football fan, and can talk football strategy with most guys.

Also, Klis had a tweet not long ago that said it was the WPG that came to George Paton sometime in the summer and suggested a long term deal for Russ. Why is this important? Maybe why they didn't fire Paton is because they are the ones supposedly responsible for handcuffing him here before they ever saw him play. Whether that was wise or not, in hindsight, can be debated, but it shows a devotion to the star players that reflects their commitment to winning.

I think they knocked it out of the park with the hiring of Sean Payton, and if/when he proves Russ isn't washed, far from it, and we become relevant again, I think you would be able to say the Russ/Payton combo is a grand slam.

I’m just gonna assume . . . yes.
