OK, it’s the worst Monday of them all in our town. Or at least the worse since the 55-10 Super Bowl. So, we’ll start with some poetry and then get on with it because, if you trust history, life, apparently, does go on.
No Joy in D-ville
Oh, somewhere in this favored land the sun is shining bright;
The band is playing somewhere, and somewhere hearts are light,
And somewhere men are laughing, and somewhere children shout;
But there is no joy in D-ville — the mighty Broncos got punk’d out.
