Maybe you have heard of a guy by the name John Elway? Many Nuggets fans are also Broncos fans, and to them 7 will always be sacred.

John Elway's a douche. There, I said it. Great player, terrific douche.

Thats true but if he wasnt a douche he would have been an Indianapolis Colt instead of a Denver Bronco.

He pulled an Eli Manning or should I say Eli Manning pulled a John Elway.

yes Elway was a ****, and a douche...but so was Jordan, doesnt mean they werent the greatest of all time, and Elway didnt "demand" a trade like Eli.. Elway told Baltimore before the draft that if they took him he was going to play baseball (being as good of an athlete he was he had that choice) guy had options... unlike Eli Manning who couldnt fall back on another sport.

I mean, the Elway/Eli move is ridiculous. Obviously, it's great when the guy comes to your team, but that's such a prima donna thing to do. Elway being the GOAT QB is questionable - top 5, for sure, I can't put him on top.
