Thesis Statement: The Denver Broncos have not just been the highlight of home for me but for everyone in Colorado.
Introduction
As a longtime Bronco fan, I can say without hesitation that they are the highlight of my home. Before I was even born, I was already a Broncos fan. Growing up in my mother's belly, I heard her scream and cheer for our Broncos.
The Broncos are to us more than just a football team; they're motivators for the young, a source of pride, and just all-around excitement for all the fans.
Even when our team was awful, no matter what, I never switched, and I don’t plan on ever switching

The Denver Broncos were founded in 1960 as part of the American Football League (AFL), and in 1968, the city of Denver purchased the Broncos’ stadium and renamed it Denver Mile High Stadium, where the team currently plays.
For the early parts of this team, the Broncos weren't really good at all, but they soon began to develop into a very good team. Between 1977 and 1991, the Broncos won seven AFC Western Division titles and four AFC Championships.
And we soon ended up winning the championship, with our hall of fame quarterback John Elway also winning back-to-back in 1998 and 1999, as shown in "Football Ball Operations Team History" on the NFl website. Then winning our last championship in 2015, which I was happy to see jumping for joy when we actually won.
II. The next thing I’m going to be talking about, which I’m actually really excited to share with you, The impact the Broncos have on the fans and community is more than just football.
When it’s game day for the Broncos, they just bring everyone together as a family. When you actually go to the game and see everyone having a tailgate party. It’s the little things that just help remind us we're all in this together, and when we're together, we can all accomplish great

I will be answering the following ten questions about the fan cost experience. The first questions is, what is the average ticket price for the Denver Broncs? The average ticket price for one fan, one game is $114.00. The next questions is the percentage change, and for the Denver Broncos it is 29.6%.
The New England Patriots began a successful dynasty in 2001 with Tom Brady at quarterback and Bill Belichick as the coaching mastermind. Even though the pair have won five super bowl titles, prior to their fourth super bowl victory in 2014-2015, the Patriots were slammed by the Deflategate scandal. Following the AFC Championship matchup of the Colts and Patriots, the National Football League investigated the Patriots for deflating footballs. Star quarterback Tom Brady, employee John Jastremski, and officials locker room attendant Jim McNally were all primary targets of the investigation. The Patriots should have been found innocent of any wrongdoing due to a poor investigation and science showing that the footballs decreased in ball pressure
Until last week divisional playoff game against the Pittsburgh Steelers Brock Osweiler was the starter of the future in the present however last week the starter against the Steelers was Payton Manning a returning Manning who was sideline since week 11 after being pulling him out of the game in week 10, returned in week 17 but didn’t start until divisional round against the Steelers. Manning struggled in Denver last week due to the windy conditions at sports authority at mile high however all season Manning has looked like he has lost step in both arm strength and footwork ability. Key to win: (Pic) Denver’s defense will need to be on high alert as well as find a way to minimize Rob Gronkowski presence on the field, Denver for the last few weeks of the regular season has looked mortal after being on fire at the start of the season. The Broncos finished the season #1 in total defense and passing defense due to the both the front line of Shane
Again in 2007 Brady lead the Patriots to a 16-0 regular season record, the last team to go undefeated in the regular season was the 1972 Dolphins. In the 2007 season Brady won the NFL MVP for his undefeated season. Unfortunately they lost in the super bowl to the New York Giants. Brady’s most recent season started with controversy and ended in history, in Super 51 at the half Bardy and the Patriots were down 28-3.

Despite his age, Manning was able to ride his defense and Super Bowl MVP Von Miller to a Denver Broncos twenty-four to ten victory over the Carolina Panthers. Miller has clearly paid off for the Broncos when they selected him second overall in the 2011 draft, only behind Cam Newton of the Panthers.
From 1946-1996 the Browns had an 83% winning percentage, from 1999 to present day, when they returned to football, they have had a 32% winning percentage(Cleveland Browns Official Site).

The Steelers have 6 SuperBowls and the Ravens have 2 and while the Bengals have never won a Superbowl they have appeared in 3 (BrownsSource All-time) and lost all of them which shows that every team except the Browns has had playoff success at some point in the franchise's history. With the exception of the Steelers the browns, franchise has been around the longest in the conference with the Bengals being established in 1967(Browns Source 1967) and the Ravens being established in 1996. This shows the Browns have had the worst playoff success out of any team and nothing to show for the franchise despite being around for the 2nd longest time in their conference while everyone else has something to show for
In the 1968 season, quarterback Len Dawson would go onto leading the AFL in passing yards. This was the fourth time in his career that he had done such a thing (Fleming). That year the Chiefs finished 12-2, the best in franchise history. Although they had such a great year, they ended up losing in their first playoff game against the Oakland Raiders. The 1969 season was a big one for the NFL and the Chiefs.
The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders are one the most profound and well known NFL cheer teams today. They choose from the top dancers in the country to take in for their summer training and then 9 girls are eliminated and they are left with 37 of the countries best dancers to be a DCC.

Personal Identity in Cleveland Browns Fandom Nicknamed the “Factory of Sadness”, FirstEnergy Stadium is home to the Cleveland Browns. This nickname comes from the unique history of the Cleveland Browns and their loyal fans who seem to end every season in disappointment. How do I understand the fans' dismay?
