Too bad his dream wasn't giving his son the same advantages his Father gave him.

Agreed. I don't know the details of the situation, but Elway's esteem fell a few notches in my view when I heard he and Janet were splitting.

Everyone should have something against divorce. I can't remember the stats, but I think over 60% of marriages in America end with divorces. That's really sad. I think divorce is utilized way too often in this country. Sometimes it's necessary, but many use it as an easy out, instead of really working through relationship issues.

Marriage is supposed to be a solemn vow that means something between two people and their god, and it's really been cheapened in this day and age.

I grew up idolizing John, like many of us here did. I really liked Janet, so when they split, I was disappointed. Especially when John pulls the midlife crisis thing and starts running around with a playboy model. He even brought that bimbo to the HOF ceremony when his kids were there. Left a bad taste in my mouth.

Now, I'm not saying that John is to blame for the divorce because I don't know the story. But the fact that he could break with his wife and leave his kids.....I just don't like it.

There you have it.

Okay, I was just curious. Who has divorces and their frequency has never been a studied subject for me I guess.

OUCH!...Is that true? That's crazy. Splitting up is one thing but you got to put your kids 1st even after the divorce...I bet that's tough to take for them. It would be tough anyway, but much more so when your dad is high profile.

Sweet for him.

Didn't he buy a house right down the street from his old house to be close to his kids?

Oh my god, John is moving on with his life, that is shocking!! How dare he!!!lol

Dude, honestly, how can get mad at the man for moving on with his life after a divorce? And he hasn't abandoned his kids. He bought a house down the street from his wife so he could still b close to them.

WTF Who ever said he "left" his kids. People get divorced, the kids have to live with one parent or the other. And he's seems like the type of guy if he dated someone his kids didn't like, I bet he would not have her around them. Just cuz she's a Playboy model doesn't make her a bad person.

I second your take on divorce. And, I speak from experience -- a 22 year marriage that ended in divorce and I am Elway's age.

BTW, I do not understand where others are getting the -- John neglecting his kids -- message from your post.

There's a difference between neglecting your kids and doing things that harm them...it's possible to not neglect them and still harm them.

Having come through a divorce myself after 15 years of marriage, I know first hand the pain it caused my kids. It took ENORMOUS effort on my part and their mom's to maintain the relationship with them and preserve as much as possible the integrity of their lives in terms of not disrupting them any more than possible. I don't think it's a good idea to let your kids know what you're up to in your dating life after a divorce...not until you have to, meaning you're getting remarried. When I got divorced, I changed career fields so I could work a schedule that permitted me having them with me more often, made sure I didn't expose them to my personal life in ways that would be hurtful and finally, when I remarried 5 years later, I brought my future wife and her kids VERY slowly into the picture...a process that took almost two years...before even letting them know what was happening. That paid off for me big time in how my daughter's handled it.

Sorry...I don't think cavorting with Playboy centerfolds in public is helpful for his kids, and bringing one to the HOF ceremony is just selfish on his part IMO. Janet was part of his life when he was playing, and she should have been there, not the bimbo. I think John will probably regret some of this stuff later on down the road.

Just my .02 worth...

There you go... you just said you don't know the story.

I guess for your sake it would be better for John and Janet to stay in a unhappy Marriage? Is that good for their kids? Is that healthy?

In divorce in generally takes two to tango so no one can place the blame on any one person. From what I've seen John is still a big part of his kids lives. They also have to realize that dad is going to be dating. Just make sure the kids know they are more important than that significant other or there could be resentment.

From what I've heard from some pretty reliable sources(ex-players), John (my idol growing up...still love the guy) has some issues that are a lot bigger than his divorce. I must say that I wasn't in the least bit surprised to hear that he and Janet were getting divorced.

I think Elway is a great father and a good person, though. He just has some personal demons (and I don't even know if those are still an issue).

Gee, from the posts here you would think that it is another person's responisbility to make you happy, and if they don't make you happy, rid yourself of them and move on to someone else who will make you happy.....of course until they don't make you happy anymore ...then find someone else! Where does it stop? Since when did marriage vows include, "Till happiness ends do us part??" It's your own fault if you aren't happy...in a marriage or not! NOT someone else's!
