Carrying on the tradition

My family

has a proud tradition

of being Broncos fans.

Ever since I can remember,

we would watch the games together

every Sunday afternoon

while we ate dinner.

I learned the rules of the game

and loved the excitement of winning.

Now, Doug and I are passing on that tradition

to our own kids.

Yesterday, as the game started,

they all went and found every

Broncos hat, jersey, helmet and football

in the house.

We started teaching them

the rules of the game,

and they cheered with us

when our team won.

Maybe someday they'll pass on the

tradition of football to their kids.
