Forgetting Brandon Marshall

Oh my. Where do I even start? I woke up this morning at 4:29 and knew it was going to be a good day. I fell asleep before Stacy did last night, partly because that Vicodin kicked in at the right time. My back is still bugging me big time, but I'm going to see a specialist tomorrow, so there is good news ahead, I'm sure.

Anyway, I just knew something about today was going to be good. Jonathan and Matt brought me lunch and that was good, even though I have to eat lying down, and it's hard to eat Gringo's that way. But that's not the best part of the day. It was good, just not as good as the best receiver in the NFL coming to your team in a much-needed trade.

And yeah, I just said Brandon Marshall is the best receiver in the NFL. Fitzgerald? Ok, I can buy that one too. Moss? Please. Has he ever crossed the middle of the field? He's certainly better than Brickhands Edwards and/or Santonio Holmes. I have not so secretly lusted after Marshall for quite some time. First of all, he's been a Bronco. That means I've gotten to see him a lot, because I am a good friend and support my friends' teams. And I secretly desire to have their players. Ok, not all of them. Just one. But if you saw that catch Marshall made against the Giants . . . and if you saw it I don't have to explain further, you know how awesome he is. I said after seeing that catch, "See, that's what we don't have. I want one of those. Just one." And now, we not only have one, we have THE one.

So to sum up quickly, I hate that the Broncos lost Marshall for Matt's sake. And for Dustin's sake. And Payton's. And the whole Mulder family's sake. But the first time he burns a DB for a 60 yard TD catch and run, I'll probably get over it. Are we going to be a better team? Hecks yes. How could we not be? Let's not start talking playoffs just yet though. Let's see how the draft goes. What do I think we need to get out of the draft? I'll let you know tomorrow, while I'm lying around doing a whole lot of nothing.
