If you’re anything like me, you watch the first quarter of NFL preseason games to make hasty snap judgments about who to draft in your fantasy leagues (“I MUST HAVE MIKE WALLACE!”). To that end, anyone who tuned into last night’s Steelers-Broncos game on NBC was treated to a pleasant surprise: a double rainbow at Mile High. It’s a nice metaphor for the beginning of the NFL season. The double rainbow guy sounds like me during Week 1 every fall. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? IT’S SO VIVID! SO INTENSE! OH MY GOD LOOK AT THAT FOOTBALL. WOOOOOO!!!!

(By the way, Drew’s on vacation this week, so your weekly dose of Peter King lambasting will be either canceled or late and written by someone else. Either way, you’re going to be unhappy. Deal with it.)

Mother Theresa provided the Halftime entertaiment to justify her canonization to Sainthood.
the game was on FOX you cuntacular cuntards.
Another stray observation: My brother’s gf picked up on Buck or Troy saying something about Ben, while suspended, maybe doing like Favre and “tossing with some high schoolers.” Freudian slip?
Seriously though, Mike Wallace looks NASTY.
@Balls of Steel
Buck wears lifts. He also tosses Albert’s Pujol, when he’s not busy ruining broadcasts.
Anyone else notice their mention of their fantasy draft? Buck mentioned Pam Oliver picker Aaron Rodgers first overall, and when they scanned over to their draft board I definitely saw someone took Dallas’ defense with like a 5th round pick. These are the people paid millions to be our football “experts.”
/would love to be in that league…free money!
This week is always the worst week. No more starters in the preseason games, and it’s not close enough to Week 1, Game 1 to start working my sad flaccid little guy into a proud, nay, raging football-fueled bewner.
/true only if you don’t give more than a passing fuck about any BCS team
@BlickNation. Thanks! I must have missed it while I was ignoring stupid Joe Buck. BTW, did anyone see the box they stood him up on when Lynch was in the booth? No way he is as tall as Lynch and just a couple of inches shorter than Aikman!
@ Balls of Steel: There was a (faint) double rainbow last night, but you’re right, it’s not in that screengrab. About 1 1/2 mins. after that shot, they had another where you could actually see it better.
@The Dude: I also read PK’s column today and was also shocked that the 1st page was informative stuff. My conclusion is someone found his editor who had been tied up in SI’s basement near the hot water heater with a vente triple hazelnut, chocolate swirl with two snaps up machiatto, with fat free whipped cream tied around his neck.
Apparently no one in SI can figure out who locked him up down there all this time, but I’m sure they are a lofty 40% sure who may have been behind such shenanigans.
It was a Double Rainbow last night until Josh McDaniels traded one away, and then pissed of the first one so much it went into hiding.
This picture needs “Erasure – Always” in the background.
/Robot Unicorn Attack’ed
If I didn’t know the Bronco organization was made from rainbows and pixie dust, I would have thought that horse on top of the stadium was actually a CC photoshop. I am pleasantly surprised it is not, but adding a unicorn horn to it would definitely be a nice touch.
Either I’m fucking blind or I don’t know the meaning of a double rainbow or I’m not taking enough drugs, but I only saw one rainbow during the game and I only see one in the screengrab above.
Tebow coming into the game bathed in white light and promptly leading the Broncos to a TD I could see, but that was it.
In days of old, a double rainbow meant Tebow was returning to earth.
The first page of Peter King’s MMQB was actually informative, useful, sports journalism. Seriously, I was shocked.
DOUBLE TEBOW
WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
“Hey Tumblr fags how about a hat tip?”
Love that tag.
I’m hoping Falco writes todays PK post.
Fred Smoot got excited about this post, until he realized the title said “double rainbow.”
The Bronco on the Inesco Field roof needs a unicorn horn.
I’m eagerly awaiting the lesbian porn titled “Double Donger Rainbow”
A double rainbow AND Brady Quinn ?
