Shannon Sharpe: Charges against him dismissed amid suggestions accuser was a semi-stalker

By Michael RobertsSeptember 16, 2010

Maybe things are going to work out for Shannon Sharpe after all. Yesterday, we noted that Sharpe had taken a temporary leave from CBS after a restraining order was filed against the former Bronco, a longtime local favorite who’s been on the short list for NFL Hall of Fame induction…

Carmelo Anthony-Andre Iguodala trade in 3-way deal with Nuggets, NJ Nets, Philadelphia 76ers?

By Michael RobertsSeptember 16, 2010

In today’s Denver Post, coach George Karl talks about persuading Carmelo Anthony to stay a Nugget. But no one believes that’ll happen — probably even Karl. Which is why trade scenarios keep popping up — most of them involving the Chicago Bulls, who seemingly have the most to offer Anthony…

Shannon Sharpe takes leave from CBS due to restraining order: See documents here

By Michael RobertsSeptember 15, 2010

Shannon Sharpe has long been a favorite of Broncos fans — a former record-setting tight end turned broadcaster who Denverites have long felt deserves to be in the NFL Hall of Fame. But his road to Canton may have gotten longer, what with him taking a temporary leave from CBS…

Carmelo Anthony trade: Chicago Bulls pick of choice — but what if Rockets offer Yao Ming?

By Michael RobertsSeptember 15, 2010

The New Jersey Nets will have $23 million to spend next summer, with many folks hoping the cash could lure Carmelo Anthony. But if that scenario plays out, the Nuggets will get zip for their superstar. No wonder most observers still see a trade to Chicago as the likeliest Melo…

Tim Tebow: Rolling Stone piece praising him attacked for implying CO Springs hates gays

By Michael RobertsSeptember 15, 2010

Among the most commented pieces on the Colorado Springs Gazette’s website in recent days has been an editorial spurred by a Westword post, “Tim Tebow: Rolling Stone’s Matt Taibbi Reluctantly Predicts Big Things for ‘Kid Jesus.'” Not that Gazette editorialist Wayne Laugesen is anti-Tebow. He just didn’t like writer Taibbi’s…

Colorado Rockies lose crucial game to San Diego Padres at home — and it’s all my fault

By Michael RobertsSeptember 14, 2010

Who’s to blame for the Colorado Rockies snapping their ten-game winning streak with a 6-4 loss to the San Diego Padres at home last night? The starting pitcher, who gave up a two-run shot to Miguel Tejada before many fans had found their seats? The bullpen, which allowed the Padres…

Carmelo Anthony not thinking about basketball as Chicago Bulls wonder if he’d hurt chemistry

By Michael RobertsSeptember 13, 2010

The Carmelo Anthony trade winds continue at hurricane strength, and while he insists he’s not concentrating on basketball right now, plenty of other people are. Indeed, the rumors about him heading to Chicago are already at a level where observers are worried about whether an Anthony acquisition would hurt team…

Kyle Orton, Broncos mix mediocrity, promise & poor use of Tim Tebow in loss to Jaguars

By Michael RobertsSeptember 13, 2010

The Broncos’ 24-17 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars yesterday was frustrating to watch, and not only because of the final score. Denver kept showing flashes of promise on both sides of the ball throughout the contest, but not enough — and not often enough. The results will leave fans with…

Tim Tebow now on Facebook & Twitter: Will he join “Don’t have sex until marriage” group?

By Nick LucchesiSeptember 10, 2010

Tim Tebow has launched a Facebook page and Twitter account. Yes, this is news. This is Tim Tebow we’re talking about here. Tebow (or his PR team) hasn’t done much with the sites yet, but thanks to the smartasses at Tauntr, Maxim magazine’s sports blog, we can see what his…

Carmelo Anthony: If trade to Chicago Bulls won’t include Joakim Noah, is Luol Deng available?

By Michael RobertsSeptember 10, 2010

The latest reported it-city in Carmelo Anthony trade talks is Chicago, with some onliners floating the prospect of Melo being traded for Joakim Noah and Luol Deng. The Bulls promptly responded by telling ESPN Chicago that Noah’s not going anywhere. But does that mean Deng (and others) might be?…

Tim Tebow: Rolling Stone‘s Matt Taibbi reluctantly predicts big things for “Kid Jesus”

By Michael RobertsSeptember 9, 2010

Matt Taibbi is best known as a political writer for Rolling Stone magazine. But he also pens occasional sports pieces for the mag, many of them flat-out hilarious. Who could forget the December 2009 piece in which Taibbi referred to Jay Cutler as a “sniveling NFL superdouche”? Taibbi’s latest sports…

Tim Tebow era to start for Broncos week 10, November 14 against the Kansas City Chiefs?

By Michael RobertsSeptember 8, 2010

While Denver fans remain optimistic that the Broncos can win the AFC West, this opinion is hardly universal. Indeed, most observers without Colorado zip codes see a mediocre season in the Broncos’ future. But will it be bad enough for Josh McDaniels to sit Kyle Orton and hand the pigskin…

Josh McDaniels’s Jarvis Green sign & cut raise doubts about Broncos coach’s evaluation skills

By Michael RobertsSeptember 7, 2010

The Broncos made several surprising moves en route to finalizing their roster. For instance, who thought a team with a lack of reliable receivers would dump Brandon Stokely? But by far the most startling was the decision to ditch D-lineman Jarvis Green after signing him to a fat contract. It…

Carmelo Anthony trade should happen before season, but it can’t stop Nuggets from freefalling

By Michael RobertsSeptember 7, 2010

New Nuggets exec Masai Ujiri says he’s dedicated to keeping Carmelo Anthony in Denver, but few think he can pull it off. That includes two NBA experts at CBS Sports, who agree that the Nugs must move Melo, even though they’re likely to slide in the near term whether he…

Tim Tebow is Broncos’ number two — although he looked like number two at times vs. Vikings

By Michael RobertsSeptember 3, 2010

Nothing like a 1-3 preseason to get you hyped up for the start of games that matter, right? Then again, the Broncos’ 31-24 loss to the Minnesota Vikings last night cleared up one thing: Tim Tebow deserves to move up the depth chart and become the Broncos’ number two quarterback…

Carmelo Anthony: “Bernie Madoff” says Melo was his boyfriend, seeks restraining order

By Michael RobertsSeptember 2, 2010

Oh, what a bizarre document the folks at Westword sister paper the Dallas Observer stumbled upon today. It’s a handwritten request for a preliminary restraining order against Carmelo Anthony — plus Dwyane Wade, Mark Cuban, Jerry Reinsdorf and Jerry Buss — from Jonathan Lee Riches, who also goes by the…

Tim Tebow envy: Do his biggest bashers secretly want to be just like him?

By Michael RobertsSeptember 1, 2010

Football fans are likely to get a full dose of Tim Tebow in Thursday night’s exhibition closer against the Minnesota Vikings, giving him the best chance yet to beat out Brady Quinn for the Broncos’ backup quarterback position — although, at this point, Johnny Unitas’s corpse could probably outplay Quinn…

At yesterday’s Nuggets press event, new GM Masai Ujiri implied the team has a legit shot to keep Carmelo Anthony. Problem is, everyone thinks Carmelo is as good as gone, with reports about an Anthony trade demand followed by rumblings that Chauncey Billups could be dealt, too. The latest? Speculation…

By Michael RobertsAugust 31, 2010

When Colorado Rockies president Keli McGregor was found dead on April 20 in a Salt Lake City hotel room despite being just 48 and in apparently terrific health, speculation about his cause of death ran rampant — and months of delays in McGregor’s toxicology reports only increased these rumblings. Now,…

If your only knowledge of the Broncos’ 34-17 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers last night came from watching Denver-TV roundups after the game, you’d think the boys in orange and blue turned in a dominating performance on both sides of the ball — and the Denver Post accentuated the positive…
