In Deus Ex, which was released in 2000, the World Trade Center towers are missing in the NY missions. During development the developers justified this by stating that they were destroyed by terrorists earlier in the story line.

Please feel free to conspire your theories.

The twin towers have always been a terror target. DE utilized that in their story. Sucks that it happened in real life but many entertainment media utilized that story long before 9/11

Because its better

No... it's very much not. Switching uniforms and logos was the best thing the Broncos ever did. The first 2 years of the new uniforms were the 2 back to back superbowls.

Why cling to the past when it's ugly and doesn't even encompass the best years?

I've lived in Denver my whole life, you're definition of their best years and mine are clearly not on the same page, so quit being a douche bag. Must be something in the air today.

Great, you're one of those guys who takes it personally when people have a differing opinion.
Opinions differ... we don't agree on the "glory days" or the logo so I'm a douchebag?
FFS man, give it a rest.
Unless you have something nice to say don't say anything.
Can't we just get along?
Kool your jets is all I'm saying.
You'd think we could be civil about this.
Oh well, guess I was wrong.
Useless to think otherwise I guess.
Regardless of how I feel, I think we can get along.
Shanahan did encompass a lot of the Broncos, can we agree that he was our glory time?
Elway was also a beacon of awesome and wore both logos.
Like, we had other good times too but still...
Floyd Little had his time in the early days too I guess, but I don't think that's better than the late 90s.

Which is awesome by the way. Looks like I need to change my avatar to a Bronco logo and we can all form an ATOT Broncos club!


EDIT: OMG, stop fighting Bronco fans. We need to stick together not bicker between one another.

Those puke orange Bronco uniforms were the 2nd worst in the league behind the old Buccaneers uniforms. The new Bucs and Broncos uniforms are light years better than their old ones.

Puke orange? Its just orange. Bronco fans prefer orange which is why we're going back to it as our home color starting next year. Check it opening night Sep 12 against Oakland on Monday night football.

There is no way just normal orange is anything like the salmon pink gayness that was the TB bucks

I've been trying to figure that out too but I've been too distracted by the OP's horrible avatar.

It looks like a stunted unicorn that is shooting lasers from its mouth ringed in a circle of baby food puke orange.
