Thursday Flakes: The NFL Draft and More

The NFL Draft starts tonight and I could not be happier that the Denver Broncos do not need a quarterback. Thank you Bo Nix for playing well enough that I don’t have to worry about the Broncos drafting Shedeur. I would have been really worried had Shedeur been available last year, as I’m sure the Broncos would have made that mistake.

I eagerly await the next crop of Broncos to help unseat those pesky bastards that are led by the best looking walrus in the NFL. I actually love Andy Reid as a coach, it’s just a damn shame he is in Kansas City. So down with Patrick Mahomes and Taylor Swift, and here are your flakes.
