Latest blog entries from Denver teams across every league
Congratulations! You’ve won a (completely fictional) 15-minute coffee break with Colorado Rockies president of baseball operations Paul DePodesta. After you’ve ordered whatever it is you’re drinking, you sit down, and DePodesta asks you for some advice as the Rockies head into the fourth week of this young MLB season. What would you tell him? Please […]
Fans in Edmonton will get one last regular-season glimpse at McDavid vs. MacKinnon tonight at Rogers Place before the NHL playoffs begin this weekend. Both clubs have secured playoff berths, but the Oilers are on the cusp of winning the pillow fight in the Pacific Division and will be desperate for a victory as they […]
It was weird getting to zone out last night. Over the years I’ve been pretty open about my tendency to do this when the game gets out of hand for the Spurs, but (for the most part) I just wasn’t able to disengage like that this season. That is, I think, one of the biggest […]
The San Antonio Spurs had the opportunity to control the playoff bracket. If they defeated the Denver Nuggets, who sat the bulk of their starters and only played Nikola Jokic 18 minutes, they’d bump them down to the fourth-seed, and wouldn’t need to face them until the Western Conference Finals. Instead, the Spurs, without Victor […]
After the hype of sweeping the Houston Astros and the crushing reality of being swept by the San Diego Padres in a four-game series, last week was a roller coaster for Colorado Rockies fans. While progress will be slow in the climb to change the trajectory of an organization that’s lost more than 100 games […]
So, stage one is complete. The Edmonton Oilers have officially clinched a playoff spot. But there are more questions than answers at this stage. What’s the status of Jason Dickinson or Max Jones, who went down while on the road trip? Or the status of Zach Hyman, who missed the three-game road trip? Is Leon…
With two games remaining, the Oilers still have everything left to play for. Edmonton will host the Presidents’ Trophy-winning Avalanche on Monday before closing out the regular season on Thursday against the last-place Canucks. Win both, and the Pacific Division title is within reach. Lose both, and the Oilers could fall into a wild-card spot….
In a final tuneup before the playoffs, the Spurs took to the court and walked away relatively healthy (I’m looking at you, Dylan Harper’s thumb), which is all that matters. De’Aaron Fox led the team with 24 points along with 6 rebounds and 5 assists. Keldon Johnson contributed 18 points with 6 rebounds in the […]
The San Diego Padres punctuated their four-game homestand against the Colorado Rockies with a 7-2 win in the final game, giving them a sweep of the series. The San Diego lineup showed its versatility scoring the first two runs of the game using small ball with bunts to move runners and sacrifice flyballs to bring […]
Antonio Senzatela and Chase Dollander are two very different pitchers, but both have found themselves transitioning from starting to long relief over the last year. For Senzatela, the move came after struggles over the last few seasons that saw him returning from a variety of health challenges, including Tommy John surgery. Finally in August, the […]

The final buzzer at the Frost Bank Center carried little urgency for the San Antonio Spurs—but it still told a story. San Antonio came into the regular season finale on Sunday already locked into the No. 2 seed in the Western Conference, so missing key pieces for rest and injury management, the Spurs fell 128-118 to […]
Leading up to Sunday Night’s game between the Spurs and Nuggets, Wolves fans had reason to hope that San Antonio would take care of business against Denver’s C team. The Spurs rolled out the majority of their lineup minus Wemby. The Nuggets took the opposite approach of Nikola Jokic surrounded a bunch of dudes they […]
The last regular season game for the Denver Nuggets ended in a victory as they beat the San Antonio Spurs 128-118. The Spurs were… The post Recap: Denver Nuggets win their final regular season game 128-118 over the San Antonio Spurs appeared first on Denver Stiffs .
Even though the Spurs’ spot as the 2nd seed in the West was set in stone coming into the regular season finale, they still could have had a say in their second round match-up if they could have beaten the Denver Nuggets. Unfortunately, without their two centers, the Spurs were too small to deal with […]
The Colorado Rockies have had the most up-and-down season so far. They were swept on the road by the Miami Marlins; they then took two of three from the Toronto Blue Jays; they took one of three against the Philadelphia Phillies in the Home Opening series; swept the Houston Astros at home; and then were […]
Welcome to the Game Thread. Veterans of the Game Thread know how we do things around here, but for all you newbies we have a few rules. Our community guidelines apply and basically say be cool, no personal attacks, don’t troll and don’t swear too much. The first article I wrote for PTR was in March 2014, […]
It’s hard to describe this game as anything other than… deflating. While the Rockies entered the day on the verge of being swept, they had also kept the Padres on their toes for three games coming off of a sweep of the Houston Astros at home. Today is where nothing really went right for the […]
What do the Lakers want? That’s not a question I like asking, but as the final day of the NBA 2025-26 regular season gets underway, it’s a question we must ask. Here are the playoff scenarios, and what might happen. First: The Nuggets have a record of 53-28. The Lakers have a record of 52-29. […]

While it’s disappointing to once again be facing a sweep at the end of a series, one must remember the Colorado Rockies are who we thought they were. They are a team at the ground floor of a rebuild and by their own admission are “here for the climb.” By that metric, the Rockies have […]
The San Diego Padres put an end to their recent walk-off shenanigans with a 9-5 come-from-behind victory over the Colorado Rockies Saturday night. Germán Márquez, after his last stellar start, reverted to his previous not-so-good form but still managed to pick up the win with some thump from the offense. Márquez allowed four runs on […]
The Colorado Avalanche have suffered a litany of injuries this season, but I didn’t expect that trend to strike the coaching staff. Here we are, though, as the Avalanche made a concerned comeback effort that fell short in a game where a stray puck caught their lead bench boss up-high. Following the game, the Avalanche […]
