More Bad Luck for Broncos

jayandbutton · 12-19-08, 10:16 AM

It's one thing when your own athletic department and campus newspaper barely recognize you exist. That's hard enough to take.

But when you're short games for lack of funding and can't even pay for a home OOC game and THEN are denied a chance to play on the road you start to wonder if the whole world is against you.

Such is the case of our woebegone Broncos, down to nine players from injuries, and now not even allowed to play Central Washington in Vegas.

Why? Freak snowstorm. Our guys had no way to get there. Roads closed. Game cancelled.

Our guys will try again today, this time against Western Washington. Good luck, Broncos.

yeah vegas got 3.5 inches of snow. Which is crazy. The reason why the other teams arrived because they came from Utah and got there before the storm. While the men had to drive in on wednesda when the storm was coming in. I feel sorry for c. washington they played no game because stanislais withdrew.

Today game was a great win for the Broncos 73-60 especially against a West region team that is now 6-2. Gordon was a beast 26- points and 8 rebounds. Thompson and Swift had double figure. Jay now we have 10 players suited up with Summers getting some min today. with 4 pts and 5 rebound of the bench. I wish we played Central to see how good this team is this year against one of the best team in the GNAC.

i am looking forward to finally getting a look at this team, lakdod.
usually by christmas i have seen the broncos at least four or five times.
this will be the first year in more than a decade when i have not watched our men.
i thought swift was a player and we need him. sounds like coach k. is working these guys into a real unit, and that's what great coaching does. sorry about donnell but at least we have some hope.

this was a huge win...western is always a force in west region. on to conference play!

good win for the broncos.

do you guys think the team is finally playing together like a team. I didn't see or heard the game myself so i'm just guessing if the offense is efficient as few years ago?
