How might such a buy impact Kroenke's Denver sports franchises -- the Denver Nuggets and the Colorado Avalanche? Kroenke isn't getting into specifics, but his company, Kroenke Sports Enterprises, has released a statement confirming its commitment to its Denver properties and mentioning the Nuggets and the Avalanche by name.
The implication: Just because he may be spending millions on the Rams doesn't mean he's abandoning Colorado.
