Are you ready for Governor Tom Tancredo?

That’s the word from a just-released Rasmussen Reports survey, which shows Tancredo pulling to within four points of…
Peruse these three Denver blog posts. In his Golden Nuggets roundup, Denver Stiffs’ Andrew Feinstein links to one piece arguing that Carmelo Anthony still wants a trade and another saying he’s preparing to open the season with the Nugs. Colorado Pols on a pro-life group attacking Ken Buck today. Mile…
This Sunday, the Broncos take on the New York Jets — and while Denver is beset with an incredible array of injuries, and burdened by a running game that’s should be hospitalized for severe anemia, the team’s got history on its side. Note that in Jets Insider Ken Fratto’s 2002…

There’s been some lively back and forth over the question of whether Mike Rosen’s comment about crashing a hijacked plane into an Islamic center near Ground Zero could be considered satire: Rosen argues that it was, while AM 760’s David Sirota doesn’t buy Rosen’s explanation. Here are two very different…
Boulder District Attorney Stan Garnett’s campaign against John Suthers for Colorado Attorney General is running ads arguing that Suthers let serial killer Scott Kimball remain free as an informant, while Garnett put him behind bars.

No denying that medical marijuana regulations remain confusing, especially given that even many communities with established rules are already thinking about changing them. Example: Denver City Council’s efforts to establish limits on home MMJ grows. With that in mind, councilwoman Judy Montero has created a massive compendium of info she’s…
A cameo on the red-hot-high-school-musical-dark-comedy-Jane-Lynch-extravaganza Glee is nothing to sneeze at, even if that cameo involves nothing more than a glimpse of an unexceptional bread wrapper. That’s why Boulder animation studio Mighty Fudge is all atwitter about the fact that a Walmart bread packaging they designed appeared in last week’s…
In May, we shared our collection of the 30 most memorable mug shots of 2010 up until then. But there have been a lot of riveting images released since then — including candids of Osama hunter Gary Faulkner, Western Slope district attorney Myrl Serra and Jacob Joseph Medina, seen here,…
Remarkably in this age of cell-phone cameras, no video has yet surfaced of the brawl at Saturday’s Colorado Eagles-Odessa Jackalopes preseason hockey game, which Odessa forfeited despite leading 3-1 following a series of fights that were vicious even by the standards of the sport. The worst: Eagle Brad MacMillan reportedly…
Update: This billboard has now been removed. More info below. Last week, we told you about WhoSaidYouSaid putting up its 100th anti-Barack Obama billboard. But a different board is causing a considerably larger foofaraw in Grand Junction thanks to images of Obama as gay, a terrorist, a gangster and a…
Update: Former CU standout Kanavis McGhee has reportedly come forward to deny that he asked for and accepted $2,500 from sports agent Josh Luchs, as the latter claimed in a high-profile Sports Illustrated article.

Fifteen years after Shell Oil Company and the U.S. Army began a massive, $2.1 billion cleanup at Rocky Mountain Arsenal, one of the most contaminated Superfund sites in the United States, the Army is getting ready to hand over the last of its cleaned parcels to the U.S. Fish and…
You know times are tough when stealing heavy storm grates for their scrap value seems like a reasonable way to make money. But that’s what the folks at the Denver Police Department think Richard Goodface and Duane Brown have been doing. They’ve both been booked on investigation of felony theft…
You’ve stumbled upon a new feature: Comment of the Day, in which we highlight one of the most amusing, most interesting or most something comments to pop up of late. We kick things off with a take from Eric about Glenn Beck’s upcoming appearance as a keynote speaker at the…
We’ve trolled Denver blogs for these three posts. Mile High Report fan poster tunesmith crunches the numbers to prove recent Broncos’ drafts have been fairly productive judging by playing time. If not wins and losses. Face the State’s Greg Campbell reports that the feds have been trampled by the cost…
KOA’s Mike Rosen unloaded on AM 760’s David Sirota earlier today, arguing that Sirota’s claims about Rosen’s comment regarding an Islamic Center near Ground Zero, which got Rosen branded the worst person in the world by MSNBC’s Keith Olbermann, twisted what was obviously a satirical remark. Sirota disagrees — although…
This dispensary has closed. From the outside, ALCC LCC is an unassuming brick building on an edge of downtown mostly frequented by the homeless and yuppies living in the nearby modern condos. I’ve driven past it several times on my way to Coors Field this summer and never really given…
If you’ve been up to Telluride during the past year or so, odds are you’ve seen this sticker, which simply proclaims “Eric Corff … What a Douchebag.” They’re everywhere — on ski-lift posts, trash cans, on park benches, in bars and restaurants. But you can’t find them for sale anywhere…
At first glance, the pumpkin patch in the big picture above, featuring green and white pumpkins scattered throughout, gives the illusion of a casual management. To click on the picture and study the enlargement is to see the patterns of a tightly controlled organizational scheme. Such carefully calculated placement of…
Last week, AM 760’s David Sirota circulated a comment made by KOA’s Mike Rosen during a debate, in which the latter appeared to call for hijackers to crash a plane into a proposed Islamic center near Ground Zero — a bon mot that later prompted MSNBC’s Keith Olbermann to brand…
No wonder Michael Bennet’s campaign is so excited for Michelle Obama’s campaign visit at noon today in Englewood: She’s currently much more popular than her husband. That may also explain why so many shots from the White House Flickr stream find Barack basking in the light of Michelle and his…
