Dear Denver Broncos Fans,
I've been a season ticket holder since 1994. In that time, I
have been proud to be a part of the traditions that make
Denver Colorado one of the toughest places to play in the
NFL and have made Broncos fans some of the greatest in the
country. Sadly, one of the traditions that is truly unique
to being a Denver Broncos fan is in danger of going away...
....the tradition of the IN-COM-PLETE chant.
For those who may not know, Alan Roach went on record in an
interview after he was hired to be the new stadium announcer
that he might not "honor" the IN-COM-PLETE chant started by
the retiring Alan Cass thinking it might not be a "Broncos
thing" but rather an Alan Cass thing.
Broncos fans have become notorious for chanting this after
the opposing team throws an incomplete pass. It's been a fun
way of involving the fans and annoying the opposing
quarterback. And, despite the uncertainty of Mr. Roach, the
IN-COM-PLETE chant is indeed a tradition of the fans.
So far this season, it looks like he might be serious about
ignoring this tradition. While he has led the stadium in the
chant on occasion this offseason, he has either been
forgetting to do it on every incomplete pass, or he's slowly
working it out of the game. In the preseason game against
the Green Bay Packers, he didn't do it for most of the game
and his lack of enthusiasm when he did do it was obvious.
Most fans would agree that it's becoming harder and harder
to maintain tradition in today's NFL, what with stadiums
designed for corporations instead of the "every day Joe,"
and I don't want to see another one bite the dust. The
IN-COM-PLETE chant is a Broncos original and has become a
tradition at home games. I'm asking my fellow Broncos fans
to join me in signing this petition, letting the Denver
Broncos and Alan Roach know that we don't want to lose one
of the trademarks of playing football in Denver Colorado.
This is not Mr. Roach's decision to make.
WE WANT OUR IN-COM-PLETE!!
Go Broncos!!
David
