August 14th... Adopt a Bronco...

[Taco John]

Adopt a Bronco starts on August 7th.

We're going to do it a little different this year, so that there's some order to the mayhem, and plus I like to create headaches for myself, right?

Adopt a Bronco is going to work in the following way...

FIRST, people who want to participate sign up in this thread... Only once. A simple "I'm in will suffice."

From there I'm going to collect names, and then randomize them weighted by years... So for instance, 2001-2003 registration dates will get jumbled together and given first priority. Then 2004-2005 registration dates will get jumbled and added to the priority list. Finally, 2006 registration dates will be jumbled and listed accordingly.

From there, we just draft in the same manner that we always do (This forum has seen more faux-drafts than any board I've ever seen).

Registering for the draft will have a cut off date... probably make it Thursday or Friday... Depending on when I have time to get everything settled, so get your name in ASAP so you don't miss out...

[Kaylore]

I'm in, though I don't like the '04 group put with the '05 group. I think it should be 01-02, 03-04, 05-now.

[gunns]

I'm in.

[ksBRONCOfan]

"I'm in will suffice."

[Hogan11]

So this is seniority based eh? I actually have a decent chance to get whom I want? With that, I'm in.

Actually, that makes a little more sense... I like that...

*blink and nod*

[Taco John]

So this is seniority based eh?



Yes... In years passed, we've had too many newbies come in, grab a starter, and then never show up again. If we do it by some sort of Psuedo seniority, at least we know that the people picking them will be around to hype their guys...

[stoxman]

In...:thumbsup:

[heydensmom]

I'm out...

I see how Taco's trying to make it less chaotic, it leaves us rookies holding the bag. Is it my understanding that 1 person per 1 player, or can there be more than 1 person per player. I think we need a clear set of rules, also once the selecting of your adopt-a-bronco is set, is there away to close the adopt-a-bronco feature on the profile, so if a new person comes in and sets there adopt-a-bronco he and/or she does not get eaten by the wolves.

[Bronco LB 59]

I hate to rain down on the party, but the concept was always lame to begin with.

What are we six years old here? It reminds me of my youth where the lucky kid in the neighborhood pulls a Ken Griffey Jr. rookie card out of a pack and never fails to let everybody know how special he is, while I'm stuck with Rafael Belliard.

In year's past, some Bronco player would make a big play in a game and I would be so pumped up about it. Later that evening, I would log onto the Mane and some jackass would start whining about everybody jumping on his ADOPT-A-BRONCO's bandwagon and remind us who he belonged to. Like everybody was inferior because they weren't pimpin his player the entire time.

We are all Broncos fans here. We don't need to differentiate ourselves like this. Everybody on the team is our boy.

I mean, if that happens, people have to just realize it's a game anyway. The idea is to have every Bronco covered. We're not going to spend a whole lot of time enforcing that people have the right Bronco in their avatars.

And as far as the rookie thing goes, it's a tough call, but it seems like the best way to ensure that we get as many people who actually hang around with Broncos. I realize that's going to make it tougher on some good new comers, but I guess that's the way the cookie crumbles... ???

You know what? You're exactly right, 100%.

I'm rescinding my initial "in", take me out.

[Sassy]

August 7th...I'm actually not sure I'll be in town...take me out too.
BroncoLB has a good point too!

[listopencil]

By the way, TJ-during one of the message board changes my registration date was changed. I think I actually registered in 2001. I don't remember the month, it would have been in the middle of Summer when the KFFL board was still deathly slow and I just couldn't stand it anymore. I think it was 'mock pimping it over there that brought me.

[Rocket 7]

Count me in

[Florida_Bronco]

I'm in if I can get online that day. I know that's kind of wishy washy Taco but I'm homeless that week because I've rented my house out for the week.

[Connecticut Bronco Fan]

I check this site religiously, but I don't really post much, but I would love to partisipate in this Adopt a Bronco party! But only if there would be room for me to, I happily would give up my spot to a more active poster, even if he is ' newer ' then me.

[minibronco]

I'm not going to have access to a computer August 7th, so not to hold things up...

I'm out for now.

After all, I'm not loving the whole "avatar has to go along with the player" scheme. It's gonna put the photoshop forum out of business :).

Plus, I don't have good luck picking players, look who I picked last year <--- ;/

[Broncoman13]

I tried to post last night... I'm in! I call dibs on Bell, Watts, Scheff, Marshall, Champ, DJ, Darrent, and Cutler. THEY'RE ALL my adopted Broncos. As well as any other Bronco that completes a pass, catches a pass, scores a TD, creates a turnover, runs the ball, makes a tackle, punts the football, or kicks an extra point. I think that covers almost everyone... not for sure though.

Peep the "born on date" I think Garcia and Sas are the only ones that have me on this thread... perhaps TJ as well which is really odd!!! lol

[Broncoman13]

Check that, TJ and GB have me by about 3 weeks... I have Sas by 10 days!

[ND Bronco Fan]

Count me in!

There's never been a requirement that you have to have an avatar of your Adopt-A-Bronco. If the rules changed, I wasn't aware of it...

BTW, count me in...

You can just leave your Top 3 picks or whatever with TJ, and when your pick comes up, he'll hook you up ...

[BroncoBuff]

hmmmmm 93 replies and 53 guys up for adoption, this outta be interesting.
It's over 100 now, and I'm not so sure I'll make the final cut to 53 ... TJ can cut me if he wants, but those who make it - beware!

If you adopt my boy Tony out from under me, I'll spam you back to the stone age:

GIMME BACK MY SON!

Sorry folks... I'm not quite ready for this. Something came up at work that took priority. I'll get the draft order ASAP and we'll get the festivities underway...

[SJ Bronco]

I saw alot of born on claims, I think Im up there may 01 baby!

[plummershelper]

I'm in!!!! Just before the draft. Is that still cool TJ??

[Kaylore]

Any updates on draft order?
I'd like to know as well. I'd also like to know what time it's being held. I'll be at both camps tomorrow.

[BroncoBuff]

Don't sweat it TJ .... there's plenty of time.

[baja]

I'd like to know as well. I'd also like to know what time it's being held. I'll be at both camps tomorrow.



It would be a nice gesture if Gaylore SoCal and Med. got to pick the first three players as a thank you for the camp reports.

Fortunately, its not a nice world. I want to see them scrambling for their share of Soylent Orange along with the rest of the rabble.

[SportinOne]

i assume you mean the first three picks AFTER the first overall pick. Let's face it, if it weren't for Taco we'd be reading the camp reports on the ESPN message boards and frankly i'm not ready to go back to that.. Not now, not ever.

But then again he may have gone first last year by default, and so he has to wait a year before he may pick first again.

[missingnumber7]

so when is this thing gonna happen?

[ChampBailey24]

hey guys is it ok if someone would draft for me, i have to go to work now. i think ill have a hihg pick, ive been around here for a while. i woul dlike in this order
1.Champ Bailey
2.Mike Bell
3.Darrent Williams
4.Rod Smith
5.Tatum Bell
if none of them are left, just draft a higher name player for me if you will and pm me! if someone could do that for me it would be greatly appreciated. thanks a ton!

[ChampBailey24]

jay cutler would be my # 5 actually lol thanks guys

[Broncoman13]

It would be a nice gesture if Gaylore SoCal and Med. got to pick the first three players as a thank you for the camp reports.


Why? What have they done for me lately? :thumbsup:

There are a # of ways to make this fair to everyone. There are going to be a lot of people that feel slighted. Hopefully we carry on the tradition of "co-adopters".

Khan, SoCal, and Med... on the clock. All in favor? Ahye

I'm in if it's not too late. I'd go for the end some of the less famous guys - Sapp, Pymah and Chris Meyers

[Broncojef]

Count me in too if I can. Never done it before but would like to play. Maybe with the numbers we have 3-4 people can have a guy and give some group love.^5

[gunns]

Poor TJ. I have more time than I've had in the past and I still wouldn't have the time to do what he does. Especially with a baby on the way any day now. Props to you TJ. Take a break when that baby comes.

From us that is. You think you're busy now? Just wait.

[SoDak Bronco]

Let me know.. I'm in, I want Lepsis again.. Go Broncos!!

[broncocalijohn]

i want old school Ill take simon fletcher.

[Rascal]

So it's the 8th and no adopt-a-bronco thread.

I'm taking the initiative...I'm adopting Mike Bell. You don't like it, to bad.

[Joker56]

I am a newbie......
Can i still adopt ?

Joker56

[BroncoFiend]

I'll be in if there is a spot open

[Alkazar]

Well concidering its now Aug 8th, where do we put in our adoption picks? I want Jay Cutler!

[Crushaholic]

Well concidering its now Aug 8th, where do we put in our adoption picks? I want Jay Cutler!

TJ said something came up at work and couldn't get to it right away. I can wait a little bit for the "draft"...

[Alkazar]

TJ said something came up at work and couldn't get to it right away. I can wait a little bit for the "draft"...
Yeah, after I posted that I went back in the thread and saw where he said that. I know I'll be fairly high in the draft since I joined the board in May of 01, but it never hurts to make my pick known either.

[Irish Stout]

If its not too late I'm in. If its already happened and there's still Broncos to be taken, I'd like to adopt Cecil Sapp.

[Taco John]

Sorry for the delay folks... We lost a major client, and I'm scrambling on some sales stuff. I swear that I'll get to this ASAP. It's just that with a baby coming, I have to make certain my paycheck keeps coming in.

Not to worry, TJ! We understand there are other important things in your life besides the board. Just keep us updated whenever possible!:thumbsup:

Sorry for the delay folks... We lost a major client, and I'm scrambling on some sales stuff. I swear that I'll get to this ASAP. It's just that with a baby coming, I have to make certain my paycheck keeps coming in.

Those damn priorities!

This isn't one of them.

Why do you do this to yourself. Should be like last year start a thread at some odd time and first come first serve.

Your working too hard TJ!!!

[Taco John]

I've already started the list, so I'll get it finished and we'll get this thing going ASAP! No worries, mates...

[smalltowngrll]

Sooo...Uh....they teach you that the best run organizations are those that hire great managers and delegate!! I'm thinking you are hitting a capacity here, TJ, that you may want to look at organizing and delegating? Maybe some of the long timers that are trustworthy could start to step up for some delegation responsibilities?? Just a thought...I know this doesn't belong on this thread...but, dang, TJ...'bout time some of us start pulling our weight around here if we enjoy some of these things!!

[SJ Bronco]

when do we adopt a cheerleader? Same time?

DIBS on Serita Archuleta!!!

[Atlas]

once you get it done you need to set a time a day or so in advance so that you can get as many of the members there as possible. If someone draws the 3 spot but he/she isn't there are you just going to skip that person? What's the use in drawing if you just skip over people? If you do wait how long are you going to wait?? One day? Two days?

[missingnumber7]

I just want Rob Hunt, who will probably get waived or cut anyway.

[youcandoit1687]

i say that we just do 15 minutes between picks and all missed picks can be made up whenever that person returns and if you know that youll be gone just leave the pick with somebody and leave your backup picks too. like we did for the all time draft.

[-Slap-]

Hey... TJ is already pullin' The Baby Needs a New Pair of Shoes crap...

Ha!

No sweat Taco man. The Broncos or their fans ain't gonna get lost anytime soon.
I wonder who was the first athlete to pull the "I got babies to feed" card. I know TO did it, I know Sprewell did it. I wonder who did it first.

[Atlas]

You know Shaun Kemp never used that excuse.

[penguintheory]

Only because he had himself to feed. That was quite enough.

[missingnumber7]

No i think Kemps was to many to feed and he figured if he started talking about mouths to feed there would be more.

[Tredici]

I wonder who was the first athlete to pull the "I got babies to feed" card. I know TO did it, I know Sprewell did it. I wonder who did it first.

Well I presume some of all the money Patrick Ewing had to spend went towards feedin the family.

[SportinOne]

Eventually someone is going to get skipped, that's why when someone does get skipped, the next few people need to post their top 10 instead of just one. That way when the person who got skipped makes their pick the other picks can be adjusted much easier.

Really, though, none of us go very long without checking in on the Mane. Hopefully it all goes smoothly.

I predict there will be bitter recriminations, long vengeful speeches, fistfights, gunplay, self immolation, the pitting of brother against brother and sleazy deals made in smoke filled backrooms.

So you're saying that we're going to turn into professional boxing? :twitch:

Sound like a day in the life of a Chokeland Raider.

[BroncoBuff]

Sorry folks... I'm not quite ready for this. Something came up at work that took priority.
I thought this was your work ...

You have another job?

[bendog]

Anybody got charlie adams yet?

[Joker56]

[McDortoh]

Anybody got charlie adams yet?

Nope nobody has anybody yet. Taco has yet to release the much anticipated draft order due to some excuse about babys and work or some damn thing :D

[Killericon]

Score!

[broncolife]

[BroncoMatt]

still in if it ever do it

[Kaylore]

Um, for those of us who work and work long shifts, It would be nice if we had a heads up on when it's held and it would be really nice if it was done on a weekend, like Sunday.

[Taco John]

I was just going to make the announcement that we'll get things underway on MONDAY. I *WILL* be posting the draft order shortly.

Great. A work day. :-[

[Rascal]

Great. I will be gone till the 19th.

I still claim Mike Bell and I don't care what you say.

[Taco John]

Great. A work day. :-[



I expect the thing to take at least a week. People don't need to be sitting by their computers at the instant it starts. There's no hurry. We've got all month if we need it.

Relax. Hakuna Matada...



Rascal, send me a list of your players and I'll get you squared away brother.

[baja]

Great. I will be gone till the 19th.

I still claim Mike Bell and I don't care what you say.

Rascal with your join date you have a zero shot at m Bell. ;D

[minibronco]

Changed to the 14th? I'm in.

[Broncoman13]

Rascal, if he's available I'll grab him and trade him to you. Just get me a decent player on your pick!

[-Slap-]

I'm sorry, the Adopt a Lion draft is 20 doors down. Thank you and drive safely.

[gunns]

Well that's good because I wouldn't be worth a damn today. My son just called and they are at the hospital and my grandson will be born today. My son's first. He's on an Air Force base and the main road was under construction, so he went the back road and it was under construction so he moved all the cones and drove it anyway. I dont think he's nervous.

This little guy was due the 24th like yours TJ so it could be anyday.

[BroncoMatt]

Sweet Mondays are perfect for me

[McDortoh]

What exactly is your definition of "shortly" ;)
