Sports show hosts and fans are going nuts. If I were really a Donkos fan I might be mad.

Joe Flacco banners to promote Ravens-Broncos game irk some Denverites

The devil wears purple.

Ed Rydberg was strolling down 16th Street Mall on Tuesday, one of those sun-splashed Denver-y days the Downtown Denver Partnership would love to promote, when he suddenly said: "What the ..."

There was Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco, featured on a banner on a light post.

(snip)

The NFL is trying to promote its big first game of the season, the rematch of the Ravens-Broncos playoff loss, when Rahim Moore ... yeah, yeah, you know what happened.

But Flacco's plastered all over 16th Street like Stalin in St. Petersburg. Yes, there are also Peyton Manning banners, but Flacco? That Bert-from-Sesame-Street guy who beat the Broncos in their own home? Flacco? That Sam The Eagle guy who went on to win the Super Bowl MVP like Peyton was supposed to do?

And then, to top it all off, Flacco's face is also on the actual stadium, the scene of the crime. Flacco and Peyton next to each other on the south side of Sports Authority Field at Mile High....
