    Saw you were the Broncos' community leader, so I wanted to message you with a story I wrote looking at some of the similarities between Tim Tebow and the Bible's David. Check it out at http://bleacherreport.com/articles/955424-tebow-like-david-when-he-took-on-goliath

    well the broncos probably can't help but at least win 2 or 3 more games then last year.
    Looks like a CBA deal can be coming soon.
    The rivalry battles will be renewed this season.

    RAIDER NATION!!

    Gotta love it when it's the MLB All-Star break and Autumn Wind post his love for his team on the arch-rival writers page. It was the greatest rivalry in sports once upon a time, but sort of still is because of things like that. With the Broncos-Raiders rivalry it's 24/7 - 365 - to infinity and beyond.
