Rarely is there a finer opportunity to cover a sports story within the National Football League than during a scandal, but on Thursday news out of Denver blew the lid off of recent ‘DeflateGate’ grievances that have been aired exhaustively. You may have heard whispers, gasps, a bit of coughing or outright blasts of laughter, but Broncos outside linebacker Von Miller is apparently in vapors over a ‘fart tax’ his teammates allegedly have enacted – and it’s because he is the guilty party.

Dave needs to lighten up. Football is supposed to be fun duh. Thanks for breaking away from the typical BS about how great the team is before spring training even takes place. I appreciate it even if the corncob can’t.

All I did Gene was make a simple statement . I wasnt trying to find fault with the team or anyone else . As far as calling me names , thats real mature on your part . Do us all a favor , grow up and and act your age . Unless youre 10 years old stop acting like it .
