Yes, it’s only the pre-season. But anyone who’s ever gone to Invesco Field when the Broncos have played the Pittsburgh Steelers — most notably during the 2006 AFC Championship game — knows how frustrating it is to see as much black and gold as blue and orange. Steelers fans show…
Plenty of bad Nuggets news lately. Note that Carmelo Anthony is reportedly demanding a trade, and Denver cops are looking into assault allegations against J.R. Smith. No wonder the most prominent item on the team’s website is the naming of the 2010-2011 Nuggets dancers. There’s a lot of youth on…
As speculation ramps up about where Carmelo Anthony will be traded (not if), ugly reports have surfaced about another Denver Nugget who may not be long for the team: J.R. Smith. But Smith attorney David Lane says assault accusations made against him are without merit and predicts they’ll go nowhere…
Early last week, we argued that Carmelo Anthony was as good as gone from the Denver Nuggets — and while some locals continued to fantasize about Melo signing a $65 million contract extension, it’s time to stop dreaming. A persuasive Yahoo! Sports report makes it clear that new Nuggets GM…
Tim Tebow makes the ladies weak in the knees, and elsewhere: After he was announced as a new spokesmodel for Jockey, one online commenter declared that looking at Tebow’s photo triggered “multiple, small orgasms.” And that appeal can become a religious experience — hence Tebow’s recent naming as “Single Christian…
You may be wondering whether or not Carmelo Anthony is going to sign a contract extension with the Nuggets, or if Melo’s as good as gone from Denver. But he’s got other things on his mind — specifically, a movie he’s making (and tweeting about) in China. The flick is…
Because Tim Tebow didn’t play in the last Broncos preseason game — the one that earned Kyle Orton reams of (dubious) praise — we don’t have additional information to help us predict whether he’ll eventually live up to the hype or prove to be a better underwear model than NFL…
Kyle Orton has been praised up one side and down the other for his play in this weekend’s loss to the Detroit Lions. Why? Presumably because Broncos fans, and journalists covering the team, are so desperate to find something positive to write about a team seemingly on the fast track…
As we reported last week (via DenverRadio.net), Mile High Sports radio will be airing Colorado Avalance and Denver Nugget radio broadcasts on AM 950 this season. The game broadcasts will take priority over the station’s regular Cruisin’ Oldies format, likely confusing a handful, if not dozens, of people who listen…
The Broncos’ loss to the Cincinnati Bengals in the first pre-season game proved that Tim Tebow is the best third-string QB in the National Football League — but maybe not for long. A Bleacher Report post offering 75 predictions for the 2010 NFL season argues that Tebow will start for…
Yesterday, we wrote that Carmelo Anthony is as good as gone from the Denver Nuggets, and plenty of others agree, spurring speculation far and wide about where he might wind up. We’ve heard about New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, even New Orleans. But now, suddenly, a new possibility has jumped…
Sources are telling ESPN that Carmelo Anthony has decided to get out of Denver — and while neither Melo nor the Nuggets have made that official thus far, there’s little doubt it’s accurate. In late June, the prospect of Carmelo signing a $65 million contract extension seemed good, particularly with…
Last week, Victoria’s Secret announced a way for men with football-hating significant others to really piss off their ladies: a line of branded clothing with the logos and colors of the Denver Broncos and a dozen other NFL teams. Okay, so the raciest things among the collection of T-shirts and…
Cheerleaders! Something about them makes most red-blooded American males begin frothing at the mouth. It’s ingrained into American culture from the time we’re tykes: boys — like the cheerleaders; girls — be like the cheerleaders. So it’s with mild fervor each fall that the annual cheerleader calendar for the upcoming…
When I stepped into my kitchen this morning, I found the cover of the latest edition of 5280 — the one featuring Tim Tebow and the question, “The Second Coming?” — taped to our cereal cabinet along with a Post-It from my daughter that read: “Should we burn it or…
Denver Broncos fans have been spoiled for a long time. Football games here sell out every year, so we don’t have to deal with the agony of TV black outs. Ask Chargers lovers in San Diego — where an ocean-full of games have been blacked out over the years because…
Colorado Springs’ Focus on the Family made a big splash earlier this year with a pro-life Super Bowl ad starring Tim Tebow and his mom. And while the publicity generated by the spot couldn’t prevent 110 layoffs announced earlier this month, Focus learned that the NFL audience makes for a…
Tim Tebow’s teammates reminded him that he was a rookie by cutting his hair friar-style — appropriate for such a religious young man. And the cut’s catching on, at least as a joke: This morning, the a.m. crew at the Wolf/92.5 FM made a listener do the full Tebow in…
It seems that Tim Tebow is everywhere these days. But one place he wasn’t, apparently, was on one knee in front of New York Yankees outfielder Nick Swisher’s girlfriend, proposing on his behalf. The claim popped up on Swisher’s Wikipedia page — and his reaction when he heard about it…
The enthusiasm for newly minted Bronco Tim Tebow is positively off the charts. If it’s not record attendance at Broncos training camp, it’s the cover of 5280 magazine, which features a head shot of Timbow and the provocative headline, “The Second Coming?” But Les Shapiro, afternoon co-host for new radio…
Training camp officially opened for the Broncos on Sunday, with a record-setting crowd turning out simply to breathe (almost) the same air as Tim Tebow, third-string quarterback. Whether these folks will get the chance to see Tebow under center during games that count remains a major question. But there’s no…
While the basketball world has been wondering if Carmelo Anthony will stay in Denver, hook up with Kobe Bryant in L.A., team with Derrick Rose in Chicago, join Amare Stoudemire and Chris Paul in New York, or maybe Chris Paul in New Orleans, Melo and new bride Lala Vazquez were…
