Now that 2016 is thoroughly in our rear-view and with Boiseans still nestled in their snowcaves, I decided it was finally time to close the door on an up-and-down year in Bronco nation. 2016 delivered thrils and spills for those clad in blue and orange (I’d like to think more of the former than the latter), but glass half-empty types may disagree. There are too many moments to knock out in one day, so this week we’ll look at all the good that happened in Bronco Nation before we dive into the bad, and the ugly. I probably shouldn’t be starting with the good, but that’s what I get for writing the lede last.
