Two Truths and a Lie – The Summer Olympics Edition

Ah, Paris in the summer. The sights, the cigarette-filled cafes, and the smell of bad cologne covering up worse body odor. The arrogant, the pompous, and the distain for anything American. And of course, that unmatched reputation for pure rudeness. But enough about Brooks Koepka. All joking aside, while thousands of athletes arrive in Paris […]

The MLB All-Star Game – Orange Slices for Everyone

Ryan McMahon was named the Colorado Rockies token All-Star reserve last week in Major League Baseball’s version of “Orange slices for everyone.” As of yesterday, McMahon was hitting .274 with 14 HRs and 45 RBIs for a team that currently sits in last place with a record of 32-59.

The 2024 NBA Draft – A Mock Tale

In theory, it shouldn’t be that difficult to create an NBA Mock Draft that closely aligns with the thought process of a lottery team’s General Manager.

But when the Denver Nuggets squandered a […]

Nuggets Down 0-2 – And I’m a Little Worried

The last two games against the Minnesota Timberwolves were not pretty. A seven-point loss in game one, followed by a 26-point spanking in game two. But I’m not worried. The Denver Nuggets are the defending NBA Champions, and they have Nikola Jokic. Is it a little concerning that Michael Malone undoubtedly made some adjustments after […]

A Rockie Start to the Season

With the baseball season upon us, I must admit that I struggled to find the positives when it came to writing about the Colorado Rockies. The team had gotten off to another slow start, the pitchers were getting shelled, and Kris Bryant was again, a virtual no-show. So, I cheated. I sat down at my […]

The Sweet Sixteen Winners – It’s a Coin Flip

Entering the Sweet Sixteen, I have to say that my bracket is looking pretty good. It helps that I had Kentucky going out a little early, picked Clemson over Baylor, and primarily went with the favorites up until this point. And I would like to think that my current success was due to the countless […]

The Broncos Without a Starting Quarterback? – Inconceivable!

Like many Bronco fans, I was struggling to figure out Sean Payton’s quarterback plans after letting go of Russell Wilson, despite still owing him $40 million. The Denver Broncos lacked the cap space for any high-priced free agent, were absent of the draft capital needed to move up for a top-three pick, and obviously, Jarrett […]
