News sport : John Elway's oops: 'I'd like to start with a thank you to John Elway'


Even one of the NFL's biggest legends isn't immune to a little blooper.


Denver Broncos general manager John Elway, who is also the greatest player in franchise history, has done countless press conferences. The one on Tuesday was a little different, considering he had to explain why he and the Broncos parted ways with coach John Fox.

Were there some nerves? Well, maybe.


"I'd like to start out this press conference with a thank you to John Elway," Elway said.


It's pretty hard to accidentally thank yourself instead of the person you meant to thank, even if you share a first name. He caught it right away.


"Or, John Elway ... John Fox," Elway said, correcting himself.


Hey, even the great ones mess up once in a while.
