Horse Tracks: Broncos in the Hall of Fame revisited

Photo by Helen H. Richardson/MediaNews Group/The Denver Post via Getty Images Mike Shanahan aside, who should go in next? Just a short 13-years ago, when I wrote this article , the Broncos Hall of Fame landscape looked vastly different than it does today. While the last decade hasn’t been great for Broncos football on the field, Denver’s representation in Canton has blossomed. ...Not that we should get complacent about our deserving players. Here’s a list of eligible greats and their ...

Evan Engram will be a focal point of the Broncos’ passing attack in 2025

Photo by Mike Carlson/Getty Images The Denver Broncos are hoping Evan Engram will be their ‘joker’ who will help transform the offense in 2025. There are a lot of reasons to be optimistic and intrigued about the Denver Broncos for the 2025 season. One of the biggest is the potential of the offense. Over the course of the offseason, the Broncos added a lot of talent around second-year quarterback Bo Nix via free agency and the 2025 NFL Draft. Multiple running backs, wide receivers, and t...

Monday Quickie - closing in

 on the worst "trying" team in baseball The Rockies, despite sweeping the Nats, are historically bad.  They are on pace for 37 wins.  There literally should be calls from the game to replace the owner because things are so non-competitive in Denver.  The White Sox are in a similar spot, Reinsdorf aging into a worse version of himself as owner often do stuck with a "back in my day we didn't pay players so much" mentality, trying to squeeze every last dollar from the team for...

MIA 10, COL 2: Rocky Mountain High

Photo by Matthew Stockman/Getty Images Strong Sandy, Soler, and surprise Davis all star in route of Rockies. The last time Sandy Alcantara stood on the pitcher’s mound at Coors Field on August 6, 2021, then-manager Don Mattingly took the ball from his ace in what, to this day, remains a career-worst outing. Lasting just 3.2 innings, the future unanimous NL Cy Young coughed up 10 runs on 10 hits, surrendering 3 home runs. By Game Score - of which Sandy totaled a score of 0 - it was and s...

MIA 3, COL 5: DLC stays hot, but Marlins drop game 1

Isaiah J. Downing-USA TODAY Sports The Marlins couldn’t take full advantage of their scoring opportunities in Monday’s loss. The Marlins traveled to the Mile High City for game one of a four-game set against the Colorado Rockies. Playing at Coors field poses a big threat to the Marlins pitching staff as it is the most hitter-friendly park in baseball, but the high altitude works both ways. It is set to be an exciting series. A quick start Jon Berti wasted no time getting things starte...

Kawhi as good as he’s ever been? Three takeaways from Clippers-Nuggets

Kawhi Leonard posts up before no doubt hitting something crazy for the Clippers. | Photo by Garrett Ellwood/NBAE via Getty Images Kawhi Leonard scored 33 points on 12-for-19 from the field, but he couldn’t save the Clippers from falling 134-124 to the Denver Nuggets.

Rockies sign Ryan McMahon to six-year, $70 million extension, per report

Bill Streicher-USA TODAY Sports The Rockies lock up the skilled defender on a long-term deal. The Rockies are in agreement on a six-year, $70 million extension with infielder Ryan McMahon, according to ESPN’s Jeff Passan. This move continues an interesting offseason spending spree for Colorado, which has also extended right-hander Antonio Senzatela and first baseman C.J. Cron, signed shortstop José Iglesias and reliever Alex Colomé to one-year deals, and inked former MVP Kris Bryant to a ...

The Case for Todd Helton 12/11/20

 Hey baseball fans! With 2020 coming to an end, the 2021 Hall of Fame class is the only thing on my mind. So, let's talk about some of the potential members of the class and why they should get in, starting with the guy who I think is the most underrated on the ballot: Todd Helton. I think the lifelong member of the Colorado Rockies from 1997-2013 and friend of Peyton Manning (they both went to Tennessee) deserves a spot in Cooperstown, but his sub-30% performance on last year's ballot do...

The Coors Effect 8/13/20

Hey baseball fans! Thus far into the abridged 2020 MLB season, it seems that former and present members of the Colorado Rockies (DJ LeMahieu and Charlie Blackmon) are some of the best hitters in baseball in terms of batting average. DJ is now on the Yankees, but when he played a mile above sea level, he did, in fact, win a batting title. But why are hitters on the Rockies so good? The answer is simple, and I kind of already hinted at it when I said "a mile above sea level." That's right: it's ...
