Never should of let him get away.

[SonOfLe-loLang]

I remember being in Summer camp in, i guess it was 1993. And i was talking to my Dad on the phone, and he told me a broncos lineman ripped apart his knee in TC. "The name started with an M, I think," he said. Don Maggs was a big FA signing that year, and I remember praying it was Bob Meeks who ripped his knee instead. Though Maggs hurting his knee eventually lead to the Gary Zimmerman trade, so i guess it all worked out.

Anyway, thats my Bob Meeks story. (Sorry for wishing you were the injured one, Bob).

[spdirty]

61 is way too big a number. Let's go with only 16 days till training camp. :)

1961 Denver Broncos season

Home field Bears Stadium

Team went 3-11 that year and the hughest fan attendance was 32,000 to see a blowout lose to the chuggers 0-37.

Lonnie Wright also played for the Denver Rockets in the ABA.

Shout out to CFLer Karl Paymah

[NYBronc]

From Jess Place at <A HREF="http://www.milehighreport.com/2011/5/12/2165476/bronco-greats-by-the-numbers-40">www.milehighreport.com. Al Carmichael is best known for catching a 59-yard pass from Frank Tripucka on September 9, 1960. It was the not only the first touchdown in Broncos history, but because the game was played on a Thursday, it was also the first American Football League touchdown ever.
