See Broncos’ Cody Latimer Get Pepper-Sprayed at a Strip Club

Less than a year after Denver Broncos receiver Cody Latimer was busted following an incident during which he said his girlfriend assaulted him, footage has surfaced of him getting into an altercation with employees at a strip club; Latimer was pepper sprayed and his uncle wound up up flat on his back after getting punched by an employee at the nightspot.

Broncos’ Vance Joseph Spins Erect Penis Accusations With Help of Denver Post

Yesterday, we shared disturbing new details about past sexual assault accusations made against new Denver Broncos head coach Vance Joseph, including an assertion by a woman who told police in 2004 that Joseph, then an assistant coach at the University of Colorado Boulder, had disrobed, climbed into her bed uninvited and pressed his erect penis against her. Our piece noted that Joseph had not yet publicly addressed the allegations, adding, "It will be interesting to see how much longer he'll be able to remain silent."
