Both sides is the key. I honestly believe 80 percent of the country could get along just fine except for the extreme 10 percent in each side. And unfortunately media gives the 10 percent the most attention. And they do it for ratings and money. Not for truth.

So Broncos can have fans as long as groups are in 175 or less - that could be done with prep sports as well - 175 fans on one side of the stadium - another 175 on the home side - or even split them up in more groups in larger stadiums.

Another concern with football in the spring - weather in the high country and San Luis Valley. Heavy snow is normal in March/April and it's very difficult to make up a football game if roads/passes are closed for 2-3 days.

Also hearing the Governor's office went public with the press release before or at the same exact time they gave written approval to CHSAA. If true, not a good look. Because of the recent mess, it would have been great to see a UNIFIED release - just my opinion.
