                   CONGRATULATIONS TO DENVER BRONCOS

  (Mr. LEWIS of Georgia asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. LEWIS of Georgia. Madam Speaker, this past Sunday in the Super 
Bowl, the Denver Broncos defeated the Atlanta Falcons 34 to 19. It was 
a hard-fought game, and the Atlanta Dirty Birds came up a little short.
  Today I rise to say congratulations to the Denver Broncos and to my 
colleague, the gentlewoman from Colorado (Ms. DeGette).
  Denver won the Super Bowl and our colleague won our friendly little 
bet. So this morning I presented to my colleague and her staff a 
month's supply of Georgia peanuts and Atlanta's own Coca-Cola. Enjoy 
the Coke and peanuts and the victory, while you can.
  Next year the Dirty Birds will be back.
