Well, I’ll start by thanking everybody. Week after week we set a new record. We’ve reached 53 responses, which eclipsed last week’s 48. I read them all, as usual, and I appreciate the support.
I guess a good place to start is probably the Dallas game. It was pretty funny — well, not funny. Funny’s not the word. But after practice on Monday I went down to the Boys and Girls Club just to hang out a little bit, and that’s supposed to be a safe place, but it really is not for me.
All the kids had a lot of jokes and questions like, “So why’d you guys lose?” and questions that I can’t answer. I slipped on one play and a couple of guys asked me, “Why’d you slip?” I really don’t know what to answer to that. There’s really no good answer. It’s a pretty simple, yet complicated question. I slipped because it was slippery.
But it was good to see them, and as far as the game goes, it was really disappointing. We can make a thousand excuses, but you don’t get to this level making excuses and you can’t win as many games and go as far as we want this team to go making excuses.
We had a very challenging traveling schedule with landing in Denver from San Francisco and staying here about 12 hours and then heading out to Dallas, and then two-a-days in a strange place for two more days and then a game, and at the same time dealing with increased temperature and humidity.
It was really tough on a lot of people. We had a bunch of people get sick; I was one of the people who came down with a little cold. But it’s an imperfect world, and your opportunities are never perfect, and that was an opportunity for us to get better and play well against a good team, and despite all the reasons that we have to blame somebody else or blame our circumstances, we recognize that this is an imperfect game much like the world is imperfect and when you get your opportunities, you’ve got to capitalize on them.
It’s preseason, so the game didn’t count, but it definitely matters. That’s a quote from (defensive coordinator/defensive backs) coach Bob Slowik. It’s kind of funny, we make fun of him because he has all these quotes all the time, and the night before the game he gives us a little Powerpoint presentation that he’s dubbed “Beyond X’s and O’s.” It has nothing to do with football, it’s just motivational quotes, things like that, and just different ways to look at games.
We always give him a hard time about it, but we sincerely appreciate it and he keeps them coming, and one of his famous quotes is “Preseason doesn’t count, but it matters.” This game didn’t count, but it mattered to us, and we’re disappointed in some things and encouraged in other things. We’re still improving. That’s two preseason games now for us and we hope to bring it all together in this third one against Cleveland.
Speaking of Coach Slowik, he’s a very good motivator and leader. I think we have a lot of talent in our corps and he does a good job letting us show our talents and putting us in the best situation to make plays.
Like I was saying about the “Beyond X’s and O’s” this week, he gave us one that really hit home for me. It really solidified the belief that Coach Slowik is a great leader and motivator, because I got the feeling that when he was doing his presentation, he was talking directly to me, and talking to the rest of the DB’s a lot of them felt the same way.
He had a quote that he took from William Shakespeare, I believe, that stuck with me, and it was, “Assume not that I am what I was.” To me, the quote means from day to day, you need to continue to prove yourself and continue to work hard, and given that we have a lot of guys on our team and our secondary who have had great seasons, you shouldn’t assume that you are that guy or that player, or that what you’ve done the practice before or the week before or even the play before carries over.
And it goes the other way, too. If you have a bad game or a bad play, assume not that you are that bad player in the future. That really hit home for me, because I honestly don’t think I had that great a week of practice in Dallas and I don’t feel like I personally played that well, and it really hit home that I need to focus really hard on what I need to do. Just get really serious about learning all the ins and outs of my opponents, learning the ins and outs of our defense from every position that I need to learn it from. So that one really stuck with me. Mabye someone will read it and it will hit home for them, too.
It kind of reminded me of when you go to church and you feel like the preacher is talking directly to you, no matter what the sermon is about. Or you go to mosque or Hebrew school or whatever, we don’t want to leave anybody out, whatever religious backgrounds you are.
But you feel like the preacher is talking directly to you, and I was thinking about that a little bit the other day. It’s a fine line to walk if you want to have a message that’s general enough to reach enough people, but specific enough that you feel like they’re talking directly to you. I feel like it’s really difficult for great orators and great leaders and great leaders to be able to do that, and I’d definitely put Coach Slowik in that box. I feel fortunate, the situation that I’m in to have Coach Slowik, a great coach, and Dre’ and Champ and John and Nick and Hamza, just a lot of great people and a lot of talent around here.
I guess that’s enough talking about Coach Slowik. I guess it’s kind of kissing up now. I don’t think it’s going to get me on the field any more, unfortunately. If I thought it would get me on the field a bit more I would talk great about everybody.
But now I’ll talk about meeting up with D-Will’s family. We were able to meet up with Rosalind, Darrent’s mom, and several members of his family. It was a very tough situation. I think it was good for everybody including his family, and I think it was tough for everybody, including us. I think she’s one of the strongest women I’ve ever met. The things that she shared with us were amazing, and most of those things were pretty private so I won’t share them over the blog, but it was just great to see her. It was nice to be able to give her a hug and to hear her voice and talk about how she’s dealing with it, talk about how proud of us that she is, and we just echoed the same sentiments back to her, about how proud we are of her and her family and how well they’re doing.
I actually got to meet Trese Kenard, D-Will’s aunt, and she’s a high school teacher in the Dallas area, and just talking to her about it affects her and how it helped her refocus on her job and the many ways that she’s trying to help young guys who remind her of her nephew. Talking to her was really a blessing and I was able to exchange numbers with her as well as D-Will’s mom and I hope to be able to keep in touch with them and do whatever I can to help them. She’s an English teacher, and she talked about using my book in some of her classes, so whatever I can do to help, I look forward to it. She said she’s a faithful reader of the blog also, so she read all of your comments, too. Just like me.
All in all that experience was good to get her to come out to practice, and on game day, D-Will’s son was on the sideline and we all got to talk to him and hang out with him a little bit, which is another tough experience. But we all made it through and it was good to be with them.
But I’ve got something funny about how we all make fun of each other and nobody’s off limits. Big Sam Adams was watching the rerun of our game and he gave me a hard time about one of my College in Colorado commercials, one of the PSA’s that come on. He had a field day making fun of me. And Hamza, in my opinion, is one of the funniest guys on the team, he jumped on and helped Sam out. But of course I defended myself. I don’t know if I can share any of my jokes over the blog because I don’t want to tick Sam off or upset Sam. He’s a little too big to be joking with. But I definitely told him if he was jealous about my commercial that he could talk to Rod (Smith) and get in those Blackjack Pizza commercials.
In response to tjames238′s question, which was why would we trade Gerard Warren because of all the talent that he has, and he was wondering if it was because of our scheme or because of the talent that we have on defense. I would say that’s a question for Coach Shanahan, the big decision maker.
My opinion on the whole issue is that he’s a great player and I think a lot of the new things we were doing on defense didn’t fit the style of play that Gerard was best for. We definitely changed a lot defensively and a lot of our personnel has changed this year because of what Coach Bates likes to have on his defense. Gerard is a talented guy and I’m sure we’re not looking forward to facing him even though he’s in Oakland now. We have a lot of respect for his talent and I hope that he makes a better fit somewhere else.
I guess that’s kind of P.C., but I really don’t know enough details to give you any more specific answers, but Gerard’s a great person and he was a fun personality to have on the team. He had a lot of friends on this team and in Denver in general, so we wish him luck out in Oakland.
The blog has become kind of popular, because as everybody understands, the Internet has become global, and some of my friends outside the team back east and all over the country have checked out the blog and are kind of making fun of me because I need some sort of sign-off. So if anybody has a good sign-off, something that’s not corny, because my friends who have called me about it give me all these corny ways to sign-off. So I guess it’s a mission for the blog nation to come up with some sort of cool sign-off for me.
Well, I guess I’m off to a meeting now, and I’ll leave you with that. Thanks a lot.

Hey Dom,
Long time reader first time commenter.
You want something to make fun of Sam Adams about?
Ask the big guy about his picture in Madden.
Looks like the man just walked in on his parents doing some work.
I’m praying for you guys out there, we can’t afford any more injured folks.
Take Care-
fullcollapse
I just read a newspaper article about Williams’ case – so very sad and tragic – and you were mentioned. It’s good to hear how involved the Broncos are with the family. The article said you were teaching an English class at the boy’s and Girl’s Club. Is that true? Now I find you wrote a book? and you like Shakespearean quotes? As an English teacher, I’m going to have to check it out~ wish I could come up with some great sign off, but I tend to be corny as well.. . My papa used to always say “till next time”
This is the first time I’ve read one of you blogs Domonique, and I have to give you credit. Its nice to see players have some interaction with fans.
I also have to say that you guys inviting D-Will’s family out and visiting with them is very touching and makes all Bronco fans proud of this great organization.
As far as a sign off goes….keep doing what you do. Cheesy sign offs are very cliche now a days.
I also hope you get some more playing time this year. I know it wont be easy but I think you are a solid player and we’ll be rooting for you to succeed!
What is the concern like with all the injuries that have happened as of late?
Now that I’ve checked out your blog, I will continue to do so.
Best of luck to you guys!
Good stuff again Dom..
I have a quick question/statement. A lot of my fellow bronco fans are really frustrated with the D right now, and think we need to make a move, like sign Jeremiah Trotter at MLB.. But i really think that our D is going to be just fine and that everyone needs to just give us a little more to get familiar with the new scheme. I think that DJ is going to be a beast this year, its just taking him some time to learn the MLB position.
I guess what i am asking is if you think we need to shake up the D a little, or do you think that fans need to settle down a little and realize that the first team D has only played 3 quarters this year and need to give you the benefit of the doubt and have some patience..
Thanks Dom
BTW i was at the training camp when your dad showed up and Nick made the announcement to everyone.. That was cool. Nick is definitely a talker..
you rock Domonique, thanks for the blog and thanks for being such an awesome Bronco. Im always cheerin for ya on gameday
hey foxy!!
you are a little bit more global today…
im from australia and i just wanted to thank you for the insights into the game and of the life of an nfl player…
what you do is greatly appreciated by yours truly and im certain by thousands of other fans…
i do have a question…
i read an article from the denver post last week (http://www.denverpost.com/search/ci_6659811) regarding darrents grave in fort worths laurel land memorial park and the fact that not a single broncos player went to see his grave in the 5 days that the team was in texas and that most shockingly of all, the grave site does not have a headstone but a mere little sign stuck in the ground…
im not blaming the players because im certain that it would have been almost impossible to leave the team facilities on such a short and eventful visit…
the article went on further, and woody finished off by saying that he himself is starting a little fund so the fans can get him a headstone he deserves and he began it by donating $250 of his money to the “The All Ready Fund” in care of Woody Paige at The Denver Post, 101 W. Colfax Ave., Suite 600, Denver, CO 80202…
were you aware of this??
im not sure if the players are aware of this, and im not sure if you are, but if i can reach out to you to at least talk to your teammates about this, and see if you guys can also help out towards a headstone for a man we all respected…
i think its the least that we could do…
love
anton
ps. my sign off is always ‘love’ and maybe you could try that… but im not sure if your friends would lay off you any more…
Stay classy Denver might be a good sign off.
I look forward to your blogs every week. Thanks so much for taking the time to do them!!
Domonique, Great Blog!
Love the insite on what you and the other Broncos go through.
YEAH YEAH YEAH!!! Fox thanks for answering my question & saying my username. It is good to know that you ae really reading these entries. My wife said you are probably getting sick of me for all the responses!!! I told her to stop hating on me. Do you think Elvis or Jarvis will step up and take Eb’s place in the starting lineup? There were a lot of missed tackles in the Dallas game. It seemed there was always a player in the proper position (to make tackles) but no one was laying the wood. Do you think these problems will be gone once the season starts? How about this for a sign-off? “This is your boy Fox finishing another BLOG entry……To The Bridge!!!” That was a saying my dad use to say to us when he would take us home from our weekend visits. We would all be standing around doing whatever and he would say “To the bridge?” We all knew that meant time to wrap up whatever we were doing and get ready to go home. “To The Bridge” What do you think?
Hey Fox ,
I thought the Dallas game could have gone a whole different way if Jay and Cheese didn’t fumble on the hand off exchange. I can understand defensive troubles changing into a new system and all but it’s only Pre-Season and hopefully you guys will get the hang of everything and get used to playing with new guys in a new system before I see ya in Buffalo. I was wondering if your book On The Island is in stores in R.I. so I can read it in when I am not playin football with my friends and playing Madden plus school is starting in a week and I always get yelled at for sitting around with nothing to do after I finish work lol so I figured if I have somthing to read written by one of my top 5 favorite players of all-time ( Champ , Al Wilson , D-Will , You , and Javon) I would be intrested and keep from going deaf lol.I checked domoniquefoxworth.com I clicked on the book and nothing poped up.
For a sign-off I have nothing lol. sorry.
Dominique,
I just have to say thank you again. You write one of the best blogs I’ve ever seen, and to have a professional football player devote the time and energy you do to this is awesome. Bronco Nation is proud to have you.
Also, I am no good at that stuff, everything I come up with is horribly corny. All I could think of is stuff involving your name.
-Fox
-Out Like a Fox
OK, I have no idea. Good luck.
Dominique,
Great blog from a great guy….and we couldn’t be prouder to have you on our team. Thanks for being a great role model and man for our children to look up to and for us to be associated with.
As for a sign off…..the only thing I could think of was…….
God speed and Go Broncos.
hey fox
another great blog. i try to read most of them. i watched the dallas game and i admit i was slightly disappointed, not at u in general but in the overall performance. however, i keep looking back at last year, then the colts didnt win a single preseason game, and went on to win the super bowl, so i cant say as if im too worried. i also have very high expectations lol, so that prly contributed.
it seems nowadays that players rarely stay with one team for that long, or they at least end up with 2 different teams in their career. do u see urself finishing ur career out in denver? that would be awesome if u did, cuz i expect u to become an amazing corner. plus its always nice to see a player stay with one team, build that loyalty.
-So long, and remember, keep your eye on the ball.
(eh, its all i could come up with, hope it doesnt sound too lame)
hey fox! as always thanks so much for writing the blog! i always look forward to tuesdays so i can read your blog! keep up the good work!
oh and good luck at the game on saturday against cleveland! i know you guys will win!
-PARIS (the #1 bronco fan!)
hey Dom
thanks for your insightful blogs….I appreciate them…I am still annoyed about the situation with you…I will keep saying it until you are our starter…you have more talent and intelligence then Bly’….still don’t know why..never mind…..but you have my respect in your determination and hustle…and don’t worry about the slip…it happens..at least you didn’t get burned standing up..like bly’ did..;)…stay blessed brother…
and I think that should be your sign off…..”Stay Blessed”
First time reader… good stuff Dom. I have a game related question. The D was getting killed by those short drag routes… was that blown coverage or Dallas taking what the D was giving? Its a tight view on the TV so I couldnt see the coverage… just that there were no Broncos in the picture.
Fox,
I thought your Blog this week was great. Your Blogs are great because they give a real feel for the team atmosphere and give me as a distant fan in Phoenix a closer connection. After reading the post last week I was really interested in hearing about the teams visit with the Williams family. I was always truly inspired by Darrent’s enthusiasm and personality on the football field. Thanks for sharing some of that with us. Good luck next week. I know that in Dallas the result on Saturday was not the one intended. Being a Bronco player under Shanahan I know that it is hard as a player to accept a result like that. Expectation are amazingly high in Denver, I don’t even understand what that pressure must be like. But I think the experience of practicing against another team and working hard down there really will accelerate the team’s progress in preparing for the season. I am excited about this season, as I always am about this time. I have one question. Being that there are so many talented DB’s on this team right now, what is the competition like on the field right for the Defensive Backs? I am sure you are fighting for every moment to earn a start or any considerable amount of playing time.
Bronco Fan – Phoenix, AZ
Fox,
First off I would just like to say thank you for being such a great role model to everyone, especially our children. With all the off the field trouble going on in the league and all the publicity that it gets, its nice to see someone who genuinely cares about the fans, children, and community. I also admire the way you are handling your situation about the lack of playing time. We all know that you are a very talented CB, and would be a starter on virtually every other team in the NFL…….but don’t go nowhere, you are one of the most vital parts of the D, and will be for years to come.:)
Anyway, I was wondering, with the loss of Ekuban, would you welcome maybe adding another veteran defensive end via trade (a al Strahan) to be a short term fix, or do you think that the rookies are showing enough promise that they will get the job done? I know everyone is working real hard, and come regular season time, all that work will pay off.
Tell everyone to keep their heads up, and the fans are always behind them. Until then… via con dios.
What about Rice?
Hey Fox,
Keep the great blogs coming. I’ve been reading them for a while and I really enjoy them.
I don’t know of any catchy sign offs you can use. I was going to suggest you steal “via con dios” from Andrew Mason because honestly, what’s he going to do about it? But bleedinblueandorange beat me to it.
Good luck this year. I’ll be rooting for you and the Broncos as always.
September 9th can’t get here soon enough.
How about, “All the best till next time”?
Out like Wade Phillips in Dodge Ball
Hey Fox;
Thanks again for the blog. Coach Slowik sounds amazing. Sounds like he brings allot more to the table than just coaching.
tjames238′s “To The Bridge” is manly. bleedinblueandorange’s “Via Con Dios” sounds good as well.
How about; “Peace in Kosovo”
Schnack.
Would “All Ready” be appropriate as a rememberance of D-Will? We know you were close with him.

Fox,
I have read several of these off and on and I believe you are doing a very good job as can be seen by the comments. The main reason I am writing this is because your favorite quote is now one of mine and one that hits home. Im personally 29 and its been a big year of change for me in my lifestyle, diet and philosophy on life and this is what I got from that this morning.
“Assume not that I am what I was.”
To me this means what you said but more. We all mature and grow as people on different scales of time. I believe there is also an implied motivation to become the person that you want to be and to shed that which you were.
I do have a couple quotes from people I respect.
“Education is a lifelong pursuit” my dad
“Ability without Character will lose” Marv Levi I believe
maybe Coach Slowik will like those enough to use some week.
For Slogans I have 2 suggestions.
“Late” which is how I say goodbye on the phone etc, who needs the r?
“D Fox Out” since well you are D Fox signing out =)
Thank you for that quote and thank Coach Slowik as well. It was a nice way to start my day.
BShaw
Foxy,
My input for a good signoff or whatever would be “Keep Locking ‘em Down.”
That’s a line in the song “We Ready” by Archie Eversole, which coincidentally is played at Invesco @ Mile High many times before a kickoff. Plus, you’re a DB and your job is to “lock down” the opposing receivers. What do you think?
I’m kind of disappointed with the way the defense has played thus far this year. I was kind of expecting something dominating considering that we have at least three corners who can line up against any 1, 2, or 3 receiver we face and slow them down, if not take them completely out of the game. I’m hoping it’s just taking time to gel, which would be better than last year when you came out of the box playing GREAT defense and lost your edge when it counted down the stretch.
Either way, I’ll enjoy watching the Broncos just as I have for the last 20+ years, and if you are “ALL READY” when the season starts, I’ll look forward to a world championship.
Dominique,
Thanks again for an outstanding blog entry–it’s incredible to me that you can do this and everything else you do.
While the performance Saturday night wasn’t what you guys were probably hoping for, it was a physically and emotionally draining week for you all, and that never leads to peak performances (at least that’s what they tell us when we train for triathlons). I think that work will pay dividends later in the season, though.
Can’t think of a good sign-off right now, I did like someone else’s suggestion of “GodSpeed and Go Broncos.” During Raiders weeks, I think “Raiders Suck” might be appropriate, even if Gerard is there.
Hey Foxy!
Another great blog, thanks for the great stories about Coach Slowik and the amazing Rosalind Williams -she is such an inspiration. That’s really cool that Darrent’s son was able to be with the team on the sidelines in Dallas. I know it’s been an incredibly tough week for you, the team and the Williams family. It’s hard to go through but also good – healing for everyone I think. The fans are definitely looking forward to the game this season with the remembrance for Darrent and Damien and appearances by Rosalind and Damien’s mother. I will try my hardest to get a ticket to that game, even if I have to stand in the parking lot, I’ll do my best to be there in October.
Since you’re quoting Shakespeare I just have to throw my favorite Shakespeare quote out there for you:
There’s a special providence in the fall of a sparrow. If it be now, ’tis not to come; if it be not to come, it will be now; if it be not now, yet it will come: the readiness is all:
(Hamlet, 5.2.214), Hamlet to Horatio
And speaking of readiness, I second the suggestion of “All Ready” as a sign off for your blog.

~*D.Will #27, A Bronco Forever”*~
I look forward to reading your blog every week. It is a really nice thing that you do for the fans out here. You are quickly becoming one of my favorite Broncos. If i had one question to ask, it would be, where do you find one of your jerseys? I will be attending my first game on Dec. 9 and i would like to represent on of the Broncos finest. Good luck and hang in there, hard work always pays off in the end.
The more popular your blog gets the more entertaining the comments are to read – there are some hilarious sign-off suggestions posted so far! Keep ‘em coming everybody!!
Hey Dom,
. Once our d-line gets all set after the injuries. We’ll be fine. And I had a quick question, I’m hearing a lot of rumors from reporters that D.J. would be better off going back outside. I totally disagree I believe he will be a good leader and it will also force that out of him because he really needs to come out in a big way. Almost all the other 1st round defensive picks take over their teams in the 2nd or 3rd year. It’s time for D.J. and I think he’s ready. What are your thoughts on DJ as far as leadership and taking over the middle? Good luck against the Browns… and pick off Quinn a couple times so they’ll (ESPN) shut up about him and start talking about you!!
Longtime reader first time commenter… I really love the way you guys are handling the situation with D-Will. Everyone deals with it their own way and you guys are nothing but class with it. Stay true to what you guys are doing cause just like you probably know his family needs you guys just as much as you do them. On the other hand It was definitely a game we all could forget. But besides I have never seen much in your guys’ preseason games anyway. You are definitely a different team come regular season. That is just my opinion but I think you guys will never play like that again
Excellent, as always. I happen to like your commercial and all that you do for the youth in our community. .
I’m not worried about the loss — you guys are just warming up. I have to say, it is nice not to have a pit in my stomach every time the Broncos QB has the ball. I don’t think I have felt this comfortable since the Elway days. Keep up the good work on D — can’t wait for the regular season. This fan is most definitely ready for some football!
Domonique,
Here’s a quote from John Wooden you might appreciate:
“Ability may get you to the top, but it takes character to keep you there.”
Foxxy!
Great post, I really enjoyed the quotes from Coach Slowik. I think he is dead on with his motivation, and our secondary is the best in the league, and only getting better.
From a fan’s perspective, no worries about Dallas. Let’s get you boys home, lick our wounds and prepare for the next battle. I rather we get that game out in Dallas, than in Buffalo……..You feel me?
Much love from all the Broncos Nation Foxxy!!!
FOX!!!
I’ll mention your coach Slowik becuase I believe you should be on the field more on game day:). Any who, some of the bloggers have mentioned J. Trotter. I know that you would be forced to give your PC answer, but I think he would be a great fit in our defense. The guy is a play maker. Dallas must have been tough last week, with D-Wills family there and being forced to try and focus on practicing and the upcoming game. I hope when the first home game comes against the Raiders on the 16th we have an awesome D-Will presentation or something cool. I have to say, of the current Broncos I have two favorites, you and Jay. For a sign off, a few have mentioned it before but “Stay classy” from Anchorman would be perfect.
Good luck this next game!
–Hey Dom,
Great blog.
Here’s a rhema word for the Denver D’.
It seems to me that the loss of Al Wilson’s firey presence and leadership on the defensive side of the ball has left a momentary void on the field.
It may take a while to find out who will be that lightning rod on the Denver D’ that will ignite and inspire the rest of the team but I have no doubt that the lightning will strike and teams around the NFL will hear the roar of mighty Bronco Thunder ripping through the league again!
Dom, Can you hear the Thunder?!!!–
hey
I love the quote from Coach Slowik! Everyone can take some kind of personal meaning from that….those make for the best quotes.
Here’s another one for coach:
“To give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift.”
Stay on the grind, as I know ya’ll are. All ready! ( I like it, you should use that).
P.S. Sorry about the accidental post up there, don’t count that in the post total LOL
Great blog, we appreciate it. I always like signoff that have something to do with your name. I was thinking “for what its Worth”. Maybe coupled with some of the other suggestions (i.e. D-Fox, for what it’s worth)
Heck, you’re an author, you’ll figure it out.
Hey Fox,
I agree with al_wilson_fan. I wasn’t too worried about the game against Dallas. I’m sure you all are taking this loss as a learning experience and taking steps to improving. That’s what I love about pre-season. It’s a time to get out there, see what we are workin’ with, and improve. Again, I say to you best of luck this season. We fans will be with you boys every step of the way!
Thanks for the blog entry. It was really nice to hear about the Williams family and how they are doing. I began my own personal blog after Darrent’s death which has helped me in such a great way. Just acknowledging what I was feeling and getting my thoughts out on the blog helped a lot! Writing is my escape. It’s how I deal.
Take care of yourself, ok?
All Ready!
~ChocolateQT
And I really like Champ24girl’s entry:
“…even if I have to stand in the parking lot, I’ll do my best to be there in October….”
What a great idea that would be for those fans that aren’t able to attend the game to show their support by just being present in the parking lot.
AWESOME idea! Does anyone know what game this will take place?
~ChocolateQT
A sign off suggestion or three…
“Until the fox hunts again…”
“Until the Chiefs find a quarterback…”
“Until the Raiders sign a quarterback…”
“Until quarterbacks quit fighting dogs…”
“Until I get no responses to this blog…”
“As long as you read it, the Dominant Fox will bring it…”
Thanks for at least reading them – most of them were just fun to think up! Thanks fox -
Hey Fox!
Awsome blogs. I enjoy reading these every chance I get. How about using “All Ready” for you sign off as a tribute to your falen friend D-Will.
Good luck this season!

Hey Dom, how about signing off with one my college daughter dropped on me as she left for school; “Well, I`m off, like a prom dress!” Every dad`s nightmare……Best of luck to you and all our broncos.
Fox,
Great blog once again. Got your sign off right here…
“This is Foxy-Poopy, signing off.”
OR just like a random quote like
“I heart my dog Cash.”

Great blog! I really hope that you get a lot of playing time this season. You are an awesome young player in this league and I think you will become one of the premier DB’s in the NFL before your career is over. Learn all you can from Bailey and Bly and apply it to what you’re already doing, which is great already. Don’t listen to all of those people who doubt your skills
Great blog as usual.
Cant wait.
Love to hear about your busy weeks…
Be watchin you from a great view on Saturday
This week will be better then last…
Not good at creative sign offs soooo….good luck.
