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…
A Thursday Bleacher Report post about the “10 Recent Contracts Worth a Double-Take” notes of Tim Tebow, “Well, what do you know? Maybe T.O. didn’t sign the craziest contract of the week.” Turns out, though, that the contract in question was the one Tebow signed to be a spokesman for…
Before Carmelo Anthony decides where he wants to play next season, he’ll probably be rumored to sign with every squad in the league. Now, on top of theories that Melo will stay in Denver, join Kobe Bryant in L.A., combine forces with Derrick Rose in Chicago, or create a Melo-Amare…
Tim Tebow may have signed with Jockey (with his photo in a white T reportedly causing “multiple, small orgasms”), but he still hasn’t inked with the Broncos, even though rookies were supposed to report yesterday. As a result, Broncos lovers continue to debate the right amount to pay new-messiah Tebow,…
Last November, embattled CU Buffs coach Dan Hawkins admitted that he’d made a mistake recruiting son Cody Hawkins as quarterback. But as of April, he still was undecided whether the clearly superior Tyler Hansen or Cody would start under center this season. And today, the Boulder Daily Camera reports that…
After starring in a Super Bowl commercial for Focus on the Family, Tim Tebow said he’d actually lost endorsements because of the spot’s pro-life message. But that didn’t stop Tebow from signing big deals with Nike and EA Sports. And while he’s claimed to have turned down other offers to…
Prior to yesterday’s game, Colorado Rockies closer Huston Street was nailed by a line drive during batting practice. But nailed where? Mainstream outlets like Channel 4 have settled on the right side of his lower abdomen. But Twitter nation thinks he actually took a shot in the family jewels…
Tomorrow is the day when Denver Broncos rookies are supposed to report in advance of training camp — but there’s a very good chance Tim Tebow won’t be among them. That’s because a finalized contract is the price of admission, and at this writing, Tebow still hasn’t signed on the…
