BRIEFLY : MIDWEEK FOR ELWAY.Byline: Daily News Wire Services John Elway's announcement that he is leaving football is expected to be made the middle of this week, a Denver Broncos spokesman said Sunday. Unofficially, the star quarterback all but announced his retirement Saturday in an interview with Denver TV station KCNC KCNC Kern County Network for Children (California) in Pebble Beach, where he was playing in a golf tournament. Elway reportedly considered announcing his decision two weeks ago, but owner Pat Bowlen Patrick Dennis Bowlen (born February 18, 1944 in Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin) is the Owner, President, and Chief Executive Officer of the Denver Broncos. He purchased the team from Edgar F. Kaiser, Jr in 1984 and saved the team from possible bankruptcy. Pat's father, Paul D. was in Australia promoting the Broncos' preseason game there. Then last week, the announcement was put off because of the high school shootings in suburban Denver. Out of respect for the victims, some of whose funerals were scheduled for today, the Broncos further delayed an Elway announcement. ``We're (looking at) a midweek press conference, most likely Wednesday,'' Broncos spokesman Jim Saccomano said.
