2011 Bronco Preseason Opponents… When It Counted - Predominantly Orange - Predominantly Orange - A Denver Broncos Fan Site - News, Blogs, Opinion and more.

]]> Each year as the Super Bowl game comes to an end, NFL football fans know in the back of their minds that the dreaded off-season is about to begin.  During this period of “no football,” there are milestones that occur indicating a new football season is closer.  One of these milestones occurred last week when the NFL released the 2011 preseason schedule.  Although no exact dates were given, Bronco fans now know who the Broncos will be playing in the preseason, assuming the on-going labor dispute does not disrupt the season.  These games, though not the most exciting, are valuable to the organization and definitely help the coaching staff create the foundation for a season.  Preseason opponents this year include Dallas, Buffalo, Seattle and Arizona.  Even though the final score of these games will not count toward the season’s record and probably won’t be remembered by most fans, the Broncos played these same teams in regular season games when the outcome had much more of an impact.

]]> I’m throwing a twist into this week’s Broncos Ramblings and going with more of a general Football Ramblings edition. Here are some thoughts on the game I love:

  •  Football is great because you can be happy in the cold, dark winter days by embracing non-stop wing specials, drinking all day on Sunday’s, and watching your friends turn into armchair athletes as soon as a play goes wrong.
  •  The last 15 minutes of a football game are counted down in dog years, thus delaying Sunday chores until next weekend. What could be better?
  •   Just because I’m a girl and a huge football fan doesn’t make me strange. You being a guy and hating football, yeah that makes you strange.
  •  I never want summer to end, but I can’t wait for football to start.
  •  Whenever I feel that pain from looking over my shoulder too fast when driving, I always imagine that a “stinger” hurts five times worse than that.
  •  I really want there to be a penalty box in football just for theatrics. Ochocinco in the box would be pure entertainment.
  • It’s pretty much a written law that a fumble must lead to a pointing match.
  • During football season, Monday’s should be a complimentary day off of work. If your team plays on Monday Night Football, the same thing applies to Tuesday.
  • Like poker, I wish I could play fantasy football for a living.
  • Just like defensive players flex muscles and scream to get more attention, I wish I could jump on my desk and point skyward after logging on to my email account.
