Remember this?

Manning to Broncos...more coming on Espn — Chris Mortensen (@mortreport) March 19, 2012

Well, of course you do. In honor of one of the Broncos' greatest off-field moments, let's take a trip down memory lane:

March 7

The Denver Post headline writers waffle on whether Broncos will pursue Manning

Hours later, former DP beat writer Adam Schefter sets the record straight, confirming that Denver is in on the QB.

March 8

Seemingly the entire DP staff declares Denver has no chance of landing Peyton. We disagree, emphatically.

Vic Lombardi hears the Broncos will trade the Ultimate Teammate™ if they're able to land PMFM. Reaction is as expected.

March 9

News helicopters chase the white van thought to be carrying Manning, John Elway, and John Fox to Dove Valley, calling to mind the notorious O.J. Simpson saga, and prompting the entire Twittersphere to joke about white Broncos.

Ted explains why the Broncos and Manning are a perfect fit.

March 11

Lombardi famously (well, in this realm) declares the Broncos are 95% confident they'll land Peyton, but an avalanche of denials forces him to backtrack.

March 19

The Twittersphere reacts to the news of Peyton's decision.

TJ's Gut Reaction to the announcement.

March 20

March 21

March 24 and on

Happy Anniversary, Broncos fans! And of course, Thank You, John Elway.
