Might want to go back to your previous post and clean that up.

My manager from 5 years ago told me about it. He said he was testing our internet access at our new office and they blocked Hulu and Netflix but not that. Mmm hmm, I am sure that's how he knew about it.

Thanks, guys.

Elway now owns what used to be Burt Chevrolet, I think. He got into Auto Nation when they were first starting up. Made almost $100 million when he sold out.

Elway is very smart. Not sure what other retired players do with their money but he put is to work for him, even before he was retired.

Who was that one cat that endorsed a rental car company? Commercial where he was jumping over seats in an airport or something. Wasn't he a Bronco? Or was that the guy in the white Bronco?
