1998 Denver Broncos win their first Super Bowl John Elway and the Denver Broncos win in a close 31-24 game making them the Super Bowl champs for the first time in program history. They played the Green Bay Packers and came in as underdogs but defied the odds and shocked the world, it was recorded to be the 2nd biggest upset in Super Bowl history. The AFC has been on a 13 year losing streak in the Super Bowl and the Broncos just broke that streak being the first AFC team to win since the Oakland Raiders in 1984. All the players couldn’t be happier. “Oh man,” said Broncos defensive end Alfred Williams, who now has won a national championship with the University of Colorado and now a world championship with Denver. “Our city must be going crazy. I was there when the Avalanche had their parade after they won the Stanley Cup. And all I can say is, I can’t wait until we have our parade.” The state of Colorado couldn’t be happier and neither can anyone apart of the Bronco organization. But no one can be happier than Terrell Davis after putting up unreal numbers with rushing for 157 yards, 3 touchdowns, including the 1 yard game winner with 1:45 left in the game. With all that he won MVP of the Super Bowl and couldn’t end the <strong>1997</strong>-1998 season any better with the ultimate upset.
Rule one: Don’t ask, Don’t tell Fight club is a movie that forces the viewer to think outside of the box in order to truly understand what is actually happening. Director David Fincher took idea of creating Chuck Palahniuk’s novel Fight Club into one of the best movies of the generation. The movie is based around a nameless first person narrator (Edward Norton) where he attempts to fix his emotional state of mind and cure his insomnia. Edward is a young man who spends his days assessing car crashes to determine whether his automobile company should issue recalls to fix problems. Through his process of fixing his mental state, he meets with a woman named Marla who attends these group sessions despite not being in need of help. However his life truly is not affected until he meets a man by the name of Tyler Durden. Two complete polar opposites that come together creating abstract ideas. Together they create a men-only group for bare knuckle fighting. The once small group becomes thousands across the country and becoming more than just a place to fight. The group becomes an anti-capitalist domestic terrorist organization underground. Edward becomes so involved in the group that he is unaware of of Tyler and Marla’s relationship leaving him forced to be an outsider looking in. Stress levels build up over that and the group going rogue, and ultimately decides that there is only one way out. The movie itself was a huge hit. From the amazing direction of David Fincher, he produced one of the most thought provoking and abstract movies that I have ever seen. I almost felt like I was with Edward in his journey. Despite the subpar acting that was displayed in the movie, I felt like maybe joining a “fight club” for myself would help benefit stress that I have in my life. The way how Fincher was able to create the book into a movie with almost perfect accuracy is astonishing. I met with him for lunch the other day to try to pick his brain about the creation of the movie, but Fincher refused to tell me anything. For that one doesn’t “talk about Fight Club”.
