Moments ago on his Facebook page, Mayor Michael Hancock posted a photo of Luke Ravenstahl, his Pittsburgh counterpart, Tebowing in a No. 15 Denver jersey. Hancock compliments Ravenstahl on “being a good sport and showing some Bronco love after a hard-fought game on both sides” — but frankly, the guy…
Tim Tebow’s latest miracle win over the Pittsburgh Steelers caused Twitter to erupt like Mount Vesuvius, setting a new record of 9,420 tweets per second. Suck it, Bin Laden raid and Steve Jobs’s death. And today? The flow of Tebow-related tweets continues at such an awesome rate that, as a…
Yep, Tim Tebow and the Broncos are in the playoffs, and each day this week, to get you ready for Saturday’s showdown with the New England Patriots, we’re going to put real fans to the test with brain teasers from the Denver Broncos Trivia Game (the 1985 version, which I…
There’s not enough acid in the world to have made Denverites collectively hallucinate the Broncos’ 29-23 playoff victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers. From the moment Denver’s offense came to life in the second quarter to the sight of the CBS studio crew Tebowing, the game was a trip from which…
At Florida, Tim Tebow famously put the number 3:16 (as in the Biblical verse John 3:16) on his eye black. That’s a no-go in the NFL — so instead of writing the digits on his face, he wrote them in the box score of the Broncos’ unbelievably improbable 29-23 overtime…
Because even most Broncos fans don’t give their team much of a chance this afternoon against the Pittsburgh Steelers, there’s been little of the trash talk that usually precedes a playoff game. So give Boone’s Tavern, in the DU area, credit for carrying on this sacred tradition — by striking…
Denver blog posts bring the fire. In an open letter to Tim Tebow, Mile High Report’s Ian Henson tells The Chosen One to take charge during this weekend’s playoff game and let the Bronco chips fall where they may. Mile High Mamas’ Heather Ruch on volunteering as school work. Big…
How can Denver be in the playoffs and still be a national laughingstock? This morning, NPR opened a half-hour segment by noting that the Broncos have 120-1 odds against making the Super Bowl, with the host wryly noting that this fact probably won’t prevent some Tim Tebow fans from betting…
Evidence is mounting that Tim Tebow is a crappy quarterback. He has thrown four interceptions versus the Buffalo Bills and completed 27 percent of his passes in Sunday’s loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. But that doesn’t mean people think he’s a bad guy. In fact, in something called the…
Tim Tebow’s three game losing streak on the field is echoed by the skid experienced by Republican presidential candidates who invoke him. Last month, Texas Governor Rick Perry said he wanted to be the Tim Tebow of the Iowa caucuses. Instead, he finished fifth last night and is suspending his…
Three games ago, Tim Tebow’s streak of late-game miracles looked bound for legend. Now, even true believers are left to wonder if his success was a mirage. No wonder comedian Bill Maher has been kicking the Chosen One when he’s down — on one knee, and on the scoreboard…
Everyone has an opinion about Tim Tebow. For example, Buffalo Bills defenders likely find him to be an exceedingly generous sharer of the football. Some believe he is football Jesus and a decreasing portion of the population view him as a personal affront to professional quarterbacking. Broncos Executive VP John…
Three Denver Broncos will be going to the Pro Bowl this year — the NFL’s annual all-star game in Hawaii, and all of them, cornerback Champ Baily, defensive end Elvis Dumervil and rookie linebacker Vonn Miller, are deserving of the honor. They’ve been highlight films into themselves, providing defensive sparks…
In late November, in the midst of his amazing run of fourth-quarter comebacks, Tim Tebow and Sports Authority Field at Mile High graced the cover of Sports Illustrated, in what we figured would be would be a horrendous continuation of the famed SI curse; in fact, we laid out five…
If you’re not a hardcore NBA fan in Denver you might not have noticed that the league hasn’t played any games yet. There was this whole thing about millionaires and billionaires arguing about how to chop up a few billion dollars. A quick synopsis: it was boring and tedious and…
Denver Nuggets head coach George Karl recently said in a radio interview on KKFN: “screw all the guys out there that think you gotta have a superstar to win a championship.” It’s a little lengthy, but it could be the Nuggets motto for the season and last night’s re-signing of…
While other teams like the Miami Marlins and Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim are spilling money on free agents like a drunk at the bar who just won the lotto, the Rockies are making un-sexy yet sound acquisitions. The latest and best came Friday when word leaked that the Rockies…
The somewhat anti-climatic showdown between Tim Tebow and Tom Brady may have been the most hyped story of the week before Sunday, but it was the neck-bearded man who Tebow replaced who made the biggest headlines afterward — by ending the Green Bay Packers’s perfect season in dramatic fashion. It…
A lot of questions have been asked about Tim Tebow lately. But here’s one we never thought to pose: Should you fuck him? The folks at Jezebel.com not only raise this subject, but attempt to answer the query via a hilarious infographic that serves as a guide to anyone thinking…
Is Tebowing really a word? That depends on whom you believe and whether or not you’re a Broncos fan. All we know for sure is that the man has inspired a wealth of pop culture, celebrity tie-ins, songs and artwork that will reach critical mass on Sunday when the Broncos…
Why aren’t we sick of the Tim Tebow media avalanche yet? Becuase lots of the flow is hilarious, or weirdly fascinating, or just plain weird. Examples? How about the Seinfeld clips in which George nicknames himself “T-Bone,” now subtly altered to sound like “Tebow.” Or the ESPN tribute hosted by…
This weekend brings Tim Tebow’s biggest test as starting quarterback for the Denver Broncos — a faceoff with the New England Patriots, starring Tom Brady, a surefire Hall of Famer who belongs in the Greatest Quarterback of All-Time conversation. But while Brady’s experience and QB skills are undoubtedly superior to…
