We recently shared photos of the moment Tom Brady realized Peyton Manning had just beaten his ass in Sunday’s AFC Championship. But viewers of KKTV in Colorado Springs may have interpreted his disappointment in another way. Earlier in the game, amid a very poorly timed technical difficulty, an on-screen crawl…
Bud Light’s twisted Super Bowl spots, featuring ex-Cali guv Arnold Schwarzenegger as a headband-wearing ping-pong player midway between Björn Borg and Chris Evert, don’t appear to have a Colorado connection beyond the participation of onetime Denverite Don Cheadle, who co-stars with…a llama; see teaser clips below. But there are actually…
Ellen Degeneres wants the Broncos to win the Super Bowl — but not because she’s got a soft spot for Peyton Manning. Rather, she’s rooting for Denver offensive lineman Zane Beadles, who’s always wanted to dance with her. He got the chance during an appearance on her show yesterday that…
Denver’s big win over the Patriots on hasn’t convinced doubters of the Broncos or Peyton Manning that the team will triumph in this year’s Super Bowl, as shown by what’s literally a hater video, since it was posted by someone who goes by the name Seth Hater. In the animated…
The Super Bowl match-up between the Denver Broncos and the Seattle Seahawks pairs teams from states that both allow sales of recreational marijuana. But that doesn’t mean the build-up to the big game has been especially mellow. An example: Nathaniel Wentz, a Broncos fan who happens to live in Washington,…
Shocking but true: The folks at Comedy Central’s The Daily Show and The Colbert Report noticed that the Denver Broncos and the Seattle Seahawks, who’ll face off in this year’s Super Bowl, are from the two states that have legalized recreational marijuana sales. And on the show’s most recent programs,…
Denver’s victory over the Patriots on Sunday stamped the squad’s ticket for the Super Bowl, where the Broncos will face off against the Seattle Seahawks and cornerback Richard Sherman, whose loony post-game rants about his greatness, as well as previous comments that Peyton Manning throws “ducks,” has made him Public…
This morning’s Denver Post had just one word for Peyton Manning’s peerless performance in Sunday’s AFC championship victory over the New England Patriots: SUPERB! Actually, the paper’s worshipful scribes had lots of words about the game and the Broncos QB, but SUPERB! just about summed it up. It’s a slightly…
This week, we shared Tom Brady hate memes and ten reasons not to hate Tom Brady — sort of. But this is the most satisfying post of all — four images of the fourth quarter moment Brady realized that his New England Patriots were going to lose to Peyton Manning…
Denver Broncos wide receiver Eric Decker isn’t the only local sports star taking a stab at a reality show. (Click to see our post on Eric & Jessie: Game On). Beginning Saturday, Nuggets center JaVale McGee will co-star in Mom’s Got Game on Oprah’s cable network. It’s no surprise reality…
Broncos receiver Eric Decker does a lot more than almost run back punt returns for touchdowns before falling down, as he did last week in a playoff game against San Diego. He and his wife, country singer Jessie James, have turned themselves into a virtual brand via oodles of photos…
Earlier this week, after we published a gallery of Tom Brady hate memes, a number of our readers called us out, arguing that “hate” shouldn’t have been used in this context. (We didn’t really hear similar complaints over a collection of Philip Rivers hate memes, but we digress.) And so,…
Last week, we told you about local strip club employees banding together to fight sex trafficking in anticipation of a spike in forced prostitution related to the Broncos-Chargers game on January 12. Their plan was to hand out trading cards made especially for the playoff game, stamped with the message…
Back in October, the Denver Post laid off several people, but quite a few others are leaving voluntarily, with the sports department, a key to the paper’s pageview prowess, being especially hard hit. Three Broncos reporters have left in a span of just over a year, including Joan Niesen, who…
In the week leading to the Broncos’ playoff game against the San Diego Chargers, we had a lot of fun hating on QB Philip Rivers and his supposed bolo-tie mojo. And to make things even better, Denver won! With that in mind, we focus our good-natured ire at the Broncos’…
Broncos fans may have unleashed plenty of Philip Rivers hate tweets after Denver bested San Diego in yesterday’s playoffs match-up — but as far as we know, none of them resorted to violence against Bolts lovers. A similar claim can’t be made by members of Chargers Nation. After the game,…
What made yesterday’s 24-17 Broncos win over the Chargers even more satisfying for Denver fans was the opportunity to see QB Philip Rivers, the man we love to hate, laid low after a week of hype about San Diego supposedly being a team of destiny thanks to Rivers’s bolo-tie mojo…
Major sporting events attract big money and big crowds. But Michael Ocello, who owns several Denver strip clubs and co-founded Club Operators Against Sex Trafficking, says they also attract a specific type of crime: men and women, girls and boys who are brought to Denver and forced to work as…
Chargers QB Philip Rivers, who Broncos fans love to hate, will bring his many ridiculous expressions to Denver on Sunday for a playoff match-up against the Broncos. No doubt he’ll be wearing a bolo tie of the sort that San Diego boosters see as a good-luck charm — hence their…
Outside of January, when the National Western Stock Show is in town, you don’t see a lot of bolo ties in Colorado anymore, even though they’re as much a part of Western garb as cowboy boots. “Bolo ties are not a high-volume seller,” says Rockmount Ranch Wear owner Steve Weil,…
As those of you who’ve seen our top twenty Phillip Rivers hate memes post can guess. we root for the San Diego Chargers QB to lose every week. But we’ve got even more motivation now, with Rivers and the Chargers facing the Broncos in a huge Sunday playoff game mere…
In the headline of a November post, we asked a simple question: Could Lindsey Vonn’s latest injury keep her out of the 2014 Olympics? The answer, posted moments ago on Vonn’s Facebook page, is yes. Look below for Vail-based Vonn’s complete statement, followed by our earlier coverage of the knee…
