September 15, 2007Poison Phrases: Ten, nine, eight, seven…
Last week the Broncos won against the Buffalo Bills with a field goal, literally without a second to spare. They set the kick up in ten seconds – five less than it usually takes.
The Bronco’s Kicker, Elam, said he knew exactly how much time he had because the Bills fans were counting down in unison.
Interesting how we sometimes send signals we don’t know we’re sending. Had Elam not known exactly how much time remained, he might have set the kick up more carefully and come in one second too late.
Of course, since I’m from Colorado, I don’t mind in this case…
