Does this mean Elway is officially in charge of everything in Denver?
Need a new one for a new board...

Maybe de facto in charge, but officially team president Joe Ellis will assume control.

Wow that sucks.  It's always weird for me to think of a 70 year old with an elderly disease like that.  My parents are 68 and 69 and still seem so young and active.

The team is going to be placed in trust and one of the kids will take over, eventually.
