Broncos lineman Ryan Clady provided insight into the 2011 Denver locker room during an ESPN chat yesterday. Despite goading from Tim Tebow fan club head Skip Bayless, Clady didn’t shy away from noting Timmy’s “trials and tribulations,” said the defense was largely responsible for his win streak, and mainly complemented…
Judging by the photos on her Facebook page, Kaylin Schimpf would never be mistaken for a diva — and she denies having behaved rudely during her reign as queen of the Larimer County Fair. Nonetheless, she’s been stripped of her title, as has her lady in waiting, Kayla Myers, reportedly…
Last night, CBS4 ran a piece about staff cuts (from 37 to twenty) at the Medical Marijuana Enforcement Division.

Commenting knows no boundaries. As evidence, check out today’s featured post, which deals with the sentencing of ex-Arapahoe County sheriff Pat Sullivan to thirty days in regard to trading meth for sex yet was affixed to our item about the CU Boulder police crackdown/Wyclef Jean concert planned for 4/20…
Yesterday, voters in the communities of Lyons, Fruita and Crawford voted about whether to allow medical marijuana retail sales — and the results were mixed. Lyons okayed dispensaries, while Crawford and Fruita nixed them even though neither is home to such a business at this time…
Today, the Denver Post’s Woody Paige lauds Baylor for winning the NCAA women’s basketball championship. But did he receive less compensation for his prose than usual? Multiple sources tell us Paige received a pay cut around the time columnists Mike Littwin and Penny Parker were laid off — and so…
The photography models featured in our March mug shot roundup found themselves before the camera for a wide variety of crimes, ranging from the weird (the embalmer accused of pawning gold teeth) to the shocking (a man thought to be Colorado’s most prolific serial killer). Check them out below, and…
Plenty of Broncos boosters have been in a state of giddiness since the signing of Peyton Manning. But here’s something capable of pouring cold water on overheated fans: Bleacher Report’s list of five NFL free agency moves sure to backfire is topped by none other than Mr. Manning…
Thus far, neither the Denver Police Department nor the city’s coroner has confirmed the identity of the apparent killer and victim in a Bryant Street tragedy as Damion Morine and his son Toby, age seven. But neighbors have named them to the media while implying that marital discord influenced this…
“Everyone take a deep breath.” So began today’s first public meeting about the proposed urban camping ban, organized by City Council’s Land Use, Transportation & Infrastructure Committee in front of a group so large it breached fire code. While organizers stressed its purpose as an informational meeting — many more…
Photos of Angie, a documentary about the murder of transgender Greeley teen Angie Zapata, can now be viewed for free on the website Hulu.

Update: As we noted a short time ago, former Arapahoe County sheriff Pat Sullivan has pleaded guilty to drug possession and soliciting a prostitute — a felony and a misdemeanor, respectively. Three other charges were dropped. Now, we’ve got sentencing details from the Colorado Attorney General, and the punishment isn’t…
On Friday, for the first time in four years, Denver’s streets reached Critical Mass when the local branch of the national organization took downtown on two wheels. But the mass mobilization wasn’t all smooth cycling: As riders promoted consideration of a world without cars, eight members were ticketed on Denver’s…
Denver blog posts are redesigned on a daily basis. Bronco Talk’s Jon Heath shows off the new Denver Broncos uniforms, which have a tweaked collar but are otherwise not as radically different as expected — or as was suggested in a prototype also linked in the post. Burning Down the…
This past weekend, Austin Tingley and Brian Donaire-Laso were arrested by Longmont police officers on low-level charges following a party. But they’ve gotten more attention for what they’re said to have done en route to Boulder County Jail — urinating in the back of a patrol car. And according to…
For months, members of CU Boulder’s student government have talked about their desire to move the annual 4/20 celebration off campus. But the logistics of doing so proved challenging, prompting leaders to opt for a low-key campaign to shrink attendance. Now we know the centerpiece of their plan: a Wyclef…
Our item about the Denver Post asking Lisa Kennedy to report on both film and theater — a move that combines two former full-time positions into one — inspired plenty of different takes on the situation. Here’s one from a reader who fears coverage will suffer despite Kennedy’s talents…
Update: Rockies manager Jim Tracy got his wish, assuming the five-game suspension Cleveland Indians pitcher Ubaldo Jimenez received for drilling Troy Tulowitzki on Sunday is enough for him — and it might not be considering the vitriol he expressed towards his former ace after the game. The onetime Rockies pitcher…
The front page of today’s Denver Post — the physical version, not its website — features a note from editor Greg Moore announcing that the paper has been “reordered.” Specifically, local news, which previously ran after national and international stories, will now appear in the lead section — a move…
A rainy/snowy day immediately following a run of seventies and eighties can be a shock to the system, and to the wardrobe. After all, there are two ways to go wrong — either by ignoring the weather and acting as if it’s already summer or by dressing like the temp’s…
April Fool’s Day jokes often seem funnier to those pulling them than they do to their targets. That was undoubtedly the case for bogus letters claiming that Xcel Energy would be cutting off anyone who voted to end Boulder’s relationship with the power supplier…
In 1998, the nude body of Sabrina Stevens, nineteen, was found dumped along a west-side highway. Immediately thereafter, suspicion began to focus on Adam Dixon, who’d been engaged to Stevens just a couple of months earlier. But it took more than thirteen years for him to confess to ending her…
