Conservative professional quarterbacks make good politicians.
He should run for the Senate. CO deserves a good Senator who is a winner.
And, I think for us to be able to, I don’t believe in safety nets, obviously we have to have some kind of safety nets...
(sigh) Yep. He's a Republican.
Sometimes I think God hates us.
You never heard about him in the off season..unless he was at a Hockey or Basketball game…He did like expensive cars..

I watched the interview clip and my guess is Elway is more aligned with the beltway Vichy Republicans than us here at FR.
Safety nets used to be there as a temporary measure when someone found themselves in a difficult situation without other means of support. Now, it seems to be used to quell possible civil unrest from government policies causing difficult financial situations en masse. Therefore any possible solutions to these policies are being halted by the government itself in order to continue with the failed policies which are benefitting the few at the cost of the many. Until these policies are changed, our economy with continue to languish.
If Denver wins today, Elway will have done what no football player has ever achieved. He really owes it to good people of Colorado to take his talents and values to the U.S. Senate, where he would be a formidable obstacle for the Commie RATs.
Elway is also a refugee from his native state of California. He played high school football at Granada Hills High School and college football at Stanford. Elway, Tiger Woods, and John Lynch are a few of the native born high income athletes who got the hell out of Taxifornia. Maybe that 11% marginal California income tax rate has something to do with it.
Elway is an egotistical SOB. First, he drafts Tim Tebow with no intention of playing him. When Kyle Orton (yes, the same signed by Dallas in December)proves less than adequate, he is forced to play Tebow, who does nothing but win.
What does Elway do? He gets rid of Tebow so he can sign Peyton Manning, fresh off a season long injury and rehab. Manning is going to the Super Bowl with a chance to do something nobody has ever done - lead two different franchises to Super Bowl victory.
What’s Elway’s response? He won’t be the greatest quarterback ever. Greatest is in the eye of the beholder.
Yep, good RINO.
So why is he not a Tea partier.
The real question is: Why did that smarmy Chris Wallace ask John Elway that question?
