Now I definitely don't like John Elway...

[originalpckelly]

I had no idea he was a freeper! EEEEW!

[niyad]

1. who is john elway?

[originalpckelly]

8. A two former time Super Bowl quarter back for the Denver Broncos...

an American football team.

[hfojvt]

14. don't forget the two superbowls his team lost

As Carson quipped after the Giants shellacked them "John Elway couldn't get home after the game. Somebody had put an end zone in front of his house."

[indypaul]

16. Just another millionaire protecting his own interests. n/t

[nini]

2. I've never liked him

He's been an asshole since high school.

[tk2kewl]

4. and he has a face like a horse

[nini]

12. so, I'm not the only one that thinks that

:D

[catmandu57]

21. No we've called him a horsefaced mother******

For years, if you live anywhere near any opposing team in the conferrence he's a favorite target. The son of a bitch has always been a rabid wingnut, he was born that way.

[cynatnite]

3. That was disappointing to see...

He's not good-looking anymore. :(

[MoseyWalker]

5. Could you please provide a little information?

Thanks

:hi:

[Ksec]

6. That just killed me.

I had no idea he was one of them. How could be be so fkin stupid?

[TAPat]

7. Elway has the intellect of a gnat -

and that's being rude to gnats...

[AlCzervik]

9. could you expand?

[originalpckelly]

10. John Elway played for the Broncos, is now at a Republican fundraiser...

when the Idiot-in-Chief will be appearing soon. The fundraiser is for Colorado gubernatorial candidate Bob Beauprez.

[Cha]

15. My mother used to watch the Broncos

play football and I remember her never liking elway when he was playing and Dan Reeves was their coach.

The one conclusion I can draw from elway being a republicon in the neocon age is that he's a greedy bastard who doesn't care about bush's lies killing our kids in Iraq.

[fooj]

11. I think he should send his son to DC for the Page Program...

:evilgrin:

[Cha]

17. And then on to Iraq.

I don't even know if he has a son but if he does he better tell him to expect to go support the fucking idiot and his war on Iraq.

[Greyhound]

13. Gee, let me think for a minute...

raised in Granada Hills (upper middle-class, ultra white, valley community), Stanford, multi-multi-millionaire, and professional jock. What a surprise!

[rockymountaindem]

18. I will never turn against Elway

I cannot hate him, so stop trying to undermine my faith in the one true football team...

Besides, money he raises for Beauprez (who doesn't have snowball's chance of winning) won't be filling the coffers of Rick O'Donnel, Marylin Musgrave or Doug Lamborn, who could really use the money. It's probaby better that he's out there for Beauprez than anyone else.

[Greyhound]

23. Hardcore, lifelong Broncomaniac, and I loved him as a quarterback

but, like any celebrity, the "golden halo effect" gives them unwarranted "authority" and a big microphone from which they can, and do, spout crap they know nothing about.

Since we are in the lounge now (for what reason, I don't know), what are your thoughts for them this year?

Plummer is always a concern for me, and I'm afraid as the injuries pile up the secondary might become vulnerable.

[Cha]

19. I don't see why this got

moved to the lounge, but oh well. It's certainly political.

[kaiden]

20. But Jake Plummer and former running back, Terrell Davis, are

Democrats. And Jake Plummer got fined something like $40,000 for wearing Pat Tillman's number long after it was appropriate. So, not all Broncos -- though most -- are Republicans. (John Ellis, Bush's first cousin, works for the Broncos.)

[RedStateShame]

24. And, when he wants to, Plummer can rock a bad-ass porn 'stache.

[mvd]

22. Never was crazy about him anyway

Athletes and other sports personalities unfortunately tend to be Repuke, though. I accept it with players and coaches/managers I like. I think I heard that Cal Ripken is a Repuke. While not very vocal, there are hints that Joe Gibbs is a Repuke, too.

But baseball announcer Jon Miller, a great announcer, is a Democrat.
