FOOTBALL! - GoBroncos95 - 08-01-2025

Everyone else excited that football season is about to start! Pre seasons game are boring for some but to me but they sure are fun to watch the rookies do what they do. 

Also, anyone here a Die Hard fan of thier college teams?! I just started UNLV for my masters of engineering and they just got a strong coach from the SEC and have the strongest G5 recruiting class for this year. :3

Also, GO BRONCOS!!

I'm not a big sports guy, but you may appreciate my Denver Broncos story.

In January of 1998 I was in Fort Collins for a two week training boot camp. I persuaded the organizer to let me take the final exam and finish a day early, because that way I could get up early and spend the day skiing at Keystone before I had to make my redeye out of Denver to go home.

This was a Sunday. I get there, and given the resort's proximity to Denver I figured that it would be mobbed with people. But the place was nearly empty! There was no waiting for anything, and no one in my way anywhere on the mountain. It was great!

Finally I asked someone where everyone was. It turned out that the Broncos were playing for the AFC championship that day, so everyone local was watching the game. Thanks, Broncos, and I'm glad you won!

Ahhh yes, when good old Elway was playing. I was only 3 at that time, but my family said it was a superbowl to watch. The mountains are very beautiful there as well. I miss my time growing up there!

I was just joking about Trump because of this: https://www.cnbc.com/2025/07/15/trump-says-soccer-could-be-renamed-to-football.html

In Spanish, you'd say fútbol to refer to soccer, and fútbol americano for American football (like the NFL).

Outside North America, you'd also basically say this in English.
