I’m not talking about the Golden Globes, or even postseason NFL honors (although I’ll talk about that too!) What I’m talking about is Forbes Horse of the Year! OK it’s not Horse of the Year, but they did make a list of the Top 10 Sports Mascots, and guess who’s on that list…Yes, the Philly Phanatic (He’s #1). Your favorite horse is on there too!
Check out the list and corresponding article here. They even mention the blog!
There’s a few questionable picks on the list. Only because a few aren’t even official team mascots. One is not even alive, it’s a stuffed doll. The NFL is represented by Rowdy (Cowboys) Sourdough Sam (49ers) and myself. They explain in the article that they use an equation called an index that takes into account of bunch of stuff I’m not quite sure I understand. Basically they ask people about sports mascots. If they know their names, their teams, how popular they are, how much they like them, etc. Then they take their responses and put them through this equation. Long story short is, across the nation people recognize the Broncos team and me and they like us!
How do you think the other mascots measure up?

P.S.
I forgot to talk about the postseason honors. I will be attending the Pro Bowl this year. There will be more info on this later, and possibly some blog entries from the Islands. Stay tuned…

Miles…in Honolulu? Puhlease tell us you have a Hawaiian thong bikini to wear!?
yay miles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You really are a great mascot, far and away the best one the NFL has to offer. Come visit us in Utah sometime.
I normally hate mascots, but I’ve loved you ever since your motorcycle broke down outside of Invesco and you had to wheel it in
Thanks everyone!
Gals…this is a family show.
I bathe in a 20′s style, one piece, knee length/tanktop jobby.
Look up a “blaze” marking. (Horse speak)
Look at the outfit.
It needs it.
Miles-
My name is Adam and I cannot think of anything better than cheerleading every waking moment of every single day…but I digress. I write today in regards to you being named one of the top mascots in sports. That is just flat out awesome.
I remember back in the summer of 1996 (before the incident) I was lucky enough to be named Cheerleader of the Day. I was a young man back then in an increasingly young woman’s sport. That day I was on fire or as they say in the zone. My flexibility was at an all time high. I could do a tumble pass blindfolded, all of it. Then my nemesis Josh Torbor ruined it all.
Don’t get me wrong Torbor was a great cheerleader. But he always seemed jealous of my raw cheerleading power. It seemed that he could never give me much credit and eventually after my partner Rick and I beat him and Seth in the World “Partner” Cheerleading Finals he went on a witchunt about my suspected dealings with a former lobbyist who wanted me to support a bill to create “National Cheerleader Day.”
Well Miles I don’t have to tell you how that turned out. They exposed all the free pom-poms I got. They exposed my inability to put together a pyramid witout the use of steroids. Most importantly they dragged my good cheerleader name through the mud.
So why the heck do I tell you this. Well you are now on top of the mascot world. And once you get there I believe you will have your own Josh Torbor to deal with. So stay on the path of the good and make sure you do not take any favors from lobbyists.
Aggressively,
AG
AG,
Thanks for the advice, and the story. I find myself emboldened…even embiggened by it. I have to be honest, it’s rare that i hear from a champion in Men’s Partner Stunting, or Dudes Doubles as it’s been called. As we’re finding out more and more these days, every arena in life is rife with politics and performance enhancers. Thanks to you, I’ll will be vigilant in my lookout for my own JT, and strive to claim my personal Spirit Stick everyday.
Passive Agressively,
Miles

I have been in contact with a Katie from your organization about the possibility of performing some tricks at training camp this year. Although my routine is far from polished I propose this as of now.
8:30-8:45-Lead the team in stretching exercises (Deep Knee Bends, Flexibility Module #4, Brisk Walk)
8:45-9:00 Fire Dog Tumbling Pass for Beginners, Basic Dance, Brisk Walk)
9:01-10:00-Team Drills (Cheerleading practice on the side for players more interested, I imagine all of them will be in this area)
10:01-10:15 Fresca Time out.
Let me know what Coach and the players think at your convenience.
I have forwarded you suggestions onto MS. I expect a VERY prompt reply.
I’ll keep you in the loop.
AG,
Two words for you.
DID NOT WANT!

Miles, you are the best mascot. The best in the NFL. When I went to the Broncos Drive for Life, you kissed my hand. Now, although this might offend you, you are my like #4 favorite Bronco. Sorry, but Jay Cutler is #1. But you are the best!
Love ya!
