			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://dailyme.com/gallery/organization/national-football-league.html"><img class="alignright" title="John Elway" src="http://images.dailyme.com/assets/2010012000001607.jpg" alt="" width="250" /></a>Let me begin by observing that I have been wrong  before. I will be wrong again, no doubt. And I may be wrong here. <em> Hopefully</em> I&#8217;m wrong here, and I want everybody to hang onto this so that  when I&#8217;m proven wrong you can mock me mercilessly as we watch the Denver Broncos win one Super Bowl after another. I&#8217;m man enough to take it.</p>
<p>That said, I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;m wrong here.</p>
<p>Today&#8217;s introduction of <a href="http://www.denverpost.com/broncos/ci_17016934">new VP &#8211; Football Operations John Elway</a>, a guy with no real football  management experience outside of the Arena League, produced all the  things that I know smart Doncs fans were hoping for:<span id="more-161"></span></p>
<ul>
<li>The new GM will be Brian Xanders, reporting to Elway. The thinking here is that it was all probably McSkippy&#8217;s fault.</li>
<li>Joe Ellis, another guy whose name is synonymous with money in the bank, has been rewarded for his role in the team&#8217;s recent success by being promoted to President.</li>
<li>When things are unclear, Elway is going to hear everyone out and hope that consensus emerges. There&#8217;s a plan for you.</li>
<li>Whoever the new coach is, it&#8217;s going to be someone who is  completely bought into the team&#8217;s franchise QB, Tim Tebow. The thinking  here, one assumes, is that when you find yourself in a hole, dig like a  motherfucker.</li>
</ul>
<p>Yep. Former coach and savant Josh McDaniel painted the team into a corner by moving heaven and earth to draft a quarterback with a bigger windup than Daisuke Matsuzaka and the accuracy of a malfunctioning SCUD. And now, looking at an unsuited 2-7, the organization has decided to go all-in.</p>
<p>I can&#8217;t wait to see what kind of coach they can talk into taking the  job. One thing&#8217;s for sure, we can forget all that talk about Cowher or  Gruden. We&#8217;re now looking for a guy with no self-esteem whatsoever.</p>
