Today is Sunday which means it's a watch the Denver Broncos day. I am becoming a bigger Bronco fan because they fired the head coach and last spring they drafted Zane Beadles, who is now the starting starting left guard (#68) on the offensive line. Although I have never met hime, Zane is special to me because I was his father's and aunt's junior high counselor. I also used to referee football with his grandfather. Zane was born in Casper but the family move to Salt Lake where the parents divorced. I ran into Jack, his grandfather, and he told me they were following the U of Utah all over to watch Zane play. Ironically Zane's mother married the head women's basketball coach at the U of Wyoming. That must have led to some interesting family discussions. I don't think I ever considered buying a Bronco jersey but I might if I can find Zane's number in my size-not too likely.
Go Broncos!
