Be honest. They made you stop calling the guys after the third time you said, “Best thing that ever happened to the Bolts this year: a Brady-less Pats team that STILL can beat the Broncos”?

Most the comments stated my idea was unrealistic…

Guess unrealistic works…

Hope he does a few more of these.

Colorado. On Monday night when the Broncos were playing. I never made the connection until I got the first guy on the phone – he was like “I’m with you but you’re calling during Monday Night Football!”. I quickly apologized and hung up.

After that I skipped the guys on the list. I know it’s sexist, but you just know every guy in Colorado was watching that game, and the Broncos were getting spanked….

Still, lots of fun and people were really great.
