No, Tim Tebow is not playing in today’s Super Bowl. But somehow, he’s getting as much, if not more, attention than most of the Giants and Patriots, especially on Twitter. And why not, since Katy Perry name-checked him at a concert last night, Katharine McPhee shared a photo of the…
The Internet is filled with forgotten pages — cyberspace cul de sacs filled with oddball content. Take Procheerleader.blog. It was folded in to UltimateCheerleaders.com several years ago, but content from 2004 to 2008 continues to linger, including lotsa quirky pics of Denver Broncos cheerleaders. In honor of this weekend’s Super…
ESPN’s Skip Bayless loves Tim Tebow so much that many viewers are ready to stage an intervention — and that won’t change after they see Bayless’s Super Bowl week chat with The Chosen One. The full interview won’t air until later this morning. But in the following preview, Bayless does…

NBC’s Jimmy Fallon recently riffed on Tim Tebow-mania by crossing the QB with David Bowie to create…Tebowie. Then, last night, Tebow reconfirmed his sense of humor by appearing on Fallon’s show. In the segment on view below, he mocked the host for being “pitchy” during the Tebowie skit — an…
A few weeks ago, I stumbled on a commentary about Tim Tebow by ESPN’s Rick Reilly. Now, I don’t care for football, and I don’t care for extreme media hype over an athlete, either. But Reilly’s commentary on Tebow is worth a read, even for you non-sports fans. Afterward, I…
Update: On Tuesday night, 9News announced that sacked Mullen High School coach Dave Logan, who’s also a KOA radio personality and voice of the Denver Broncos, would be the next head coach for Cherry Creek High.

How did CU land New Jersey cornerback Yuri Wright, a top 100 recruit coveted by plenty of other major universities? Part of the thanks go to a series of profane tweets that got him expelled from his prep school — after the football season was over, of course. Most mainstream…
When Tim Tebow sings solo — hear him crooning “My God is an awesome God” here — he’s terrible. Clearly, he needs help. And as our Backbeat blog reported, he received it from Brad Paisley Saturday night, intoning the title to “I’m Still a Guy” — because after losing to…
Dave Logan, recently fired as head coach of Mullen High School, is denying that he knew about recruiting violations, and says he would have fired any assistants guilty of such acts. As noted in our post yesterday, Mullen has long been suspected of recruiting — but Logan’s defenders insist he…
Yesterday, we noted that Tim Tebow’s rib injury during the Patriots game was similar to one sustained by Jesus during the crucifixion. A bit of a stretch? Maybe — but no more of one than a new claim that the Chosen One’s popularity is rubbing off on a certain savior…
The fallout from Mullen High School’s firing of mega-successful celebrity football coach Dave Logan has been long, loud and contentious. And the chatter will likely ramp up again in the wake of a meeting last night at which Mullen officials accused Logan’s staff of committing recruiting violations — a remarkable…
As the USA Pro Cycling Challenge proved, Coloradans love their bicycling races. Governor John Hickenlooper hopes to tap into that passion and bring attention to an often neglected part of the state with “Pedal the Plains,” which his office announced today.

Tweeters have crucified Tim Tebow for his play in Saturday’s 45-10 loss to the New England Patriots — and now it turns out that during the game, he sustained an injury very much like the one that at least temporarily killed Jesus Christ. Who rose again in fulfillment of the…

Okay, you feel bad. No, you feel worse than bad. Five Tom Brady touchdown passes in the first half will do that to you. But just because the Patriots destroyed the Broncos 45-10 in tonight’s playoff game is no reason to despair. Renew your faith the same way Tim Tebow…
Boston mayor Tom “Mumbles” Menino thinks Colorado beer sucks. He thinks Boston beer is better. Yeah, you heard that right.

Whoever thought it would be awesome to paint a $300 portrait of Mickey Mouse as Tim Tebow is only slightly less credible than the person who will buy that painting. One step above them is the Disney lawyer who will ask that the painting be destroyed, but way (way) above…

Given Tim Tebow’s recent proclivity for posing topless in just his Jockeys, no one should be surprised that women are lining up to relieve him of his self-professed virginity. But plenty of nice girls would love to be chosen by The Chosen One, too. They don’t want to get laid…
