New Broncos coach Sean Payton carries himself like a gridiron king. He’s supremely confident and domineering. Dare I say arrogant? Reminds me more than a little of Mike Shanahan.
What has struck me about Sean Payton’s tenure as coach of the Broncos is how quiet it has been. No stories about how he is buddies with the players or his special football analytics. It feels — dare I say — adult?When the Broncos blundered by hiring Nathaniel Hackett, it couldn’t have been much worse if general manager George Paton had put a starry-eyed ball boy in charge of our local NFL team. As is often the case after a failed hire, the pendulum has swung dramatically in the other direction.
To revere Nuggets center Nikola Jokic is to celebrate his intensely self-deprecating nature, best expressed in the circumspect expression on his face when asked questions by the media that make clear that Joker has no reference for our established sports standard of self-aggrandizement. We see him hold his head as he wrestles through the mundanity of a press conference, the part of his job he must surely like the least, always conducted in a language not his own.
I took offense from your comment about faker Lakers fans driving their Teslas back to Highlands Ranch. It definitely wasn’t because I’m a Lakers fan , but because I’m a diehard Nuggets season ticketholder that drives a Tesla back to Highlands Ranch after games. Close to me lives another couple of diehard Nuggets fans with a Tesla.
