OT: Other Colorado Sports: Broncos, Nuggets, Rockies...II

For you guys in the know : is Su'a Cravens any good??

 

[sethro109]

Considering how much you guys trash the Broncos, you would think that you'd all save your time from watching a four hour snoozefest.

It's in my blood. I can't not watch them. I even found myself cheering the wins that I knew were bad for the team in the long run.

For you guys in the know : is Su'a Cravens any good??

He's supposed to be a TE covering specialist, but because the broncos are so thin at CB he's been playing against WRs and RBs. He's had a lot of injuries so I'd be willing to give him one more season, but at this moment it doesn't seem like he's anything more than a depth player.

So Tulo didn't end up working out so hot in Toronto

Really good player - questionable if he actually wants to play or not. Incredibly skilled at keeping a spot on a roster but magically always having something that prevents him from being on the field.

Good way to put it. High skill, questionable effort/motivation.

I mean he’s already come out of retirement...

So it appears Florida may not only bring hockey back to Quebec City, but also baseball back to Montreal!

Start saying your goodbyes to Tampa Bay baseball now

So weird how hard they fought to get baseball to Tampa, how many teams threatened to move there in order to leverage new stadiums and what not, and yet baseball in the Sunshine State has been an unmitigated flop.

Slime, roaches, mice found in stadium food venues

Must be a Denver thing

 

[famicommander]

At least you can bring food into Coors Field and Mile High. I sometimes hit the KFC right there on Federal and bring a bucket into the Outlaws games.

Re:stadiums
I've only been to CO stadiums in last 20 years so...

Pepsi. - won't eat the food. Son gets sick from nachos every time. However tend seats are nice. Stadium is clean. Zero problems.

Coors - 3rd oldest national league stadium. So going to have some issues. I've never had issues there. And one of best atmospheres to watch a game.

Mile high (will never call it anything but). Last 10 years only sat in club level so of course it's top shelf. Food is damnnnnnnn.

If all these other stadiums are soooo much better good for them. I am perfectly happy with what we have.

 

[ASmileyFace]

Coors is really the third oldest stadium in the NL?! That's so surprising. I love the place, though I've only attended the stadium series games and one baseball game there in the past

Took my wife to her first MLB game at Coors Field a few years ago while traveling down to the lower 48. As luck would have it, it was Star Wars Night and Darth Vader threw out the first pitch. Dude threw like a girl and bounced it to the catcher...I found his lack of speed disturbing.

Beautiful park though. I had no idea it was considered old. We had a great time. Didn't eat there though...we ended up after the game at some place at Union Station...think it was called Next Door...that was pretty good.

 

[henchman21]

Coors Field is getting old, but is still one of the better places I've seen a baseball game. Fenway, Wrigley and AT&T are the only better parks that I have been to.

Yeah, Pops has grown pretty weak in his dotage. The dark side has not been kind to him.

 

[Pokecheque]

I've never had a bad time at Coors. I've learned now though that if you're gonna get a seat near the party deck section, don't get mad about the fact that people continually get up from their seats and walk around, sit down, get back up, talk on their phones constantly, etc. Also, I'm fairly positive every person in my section apart from my father and myself were stinking drunk. Still had a good time though.

The other two are from the 1890's though.

Not that I know baseball, but from watching UrinatingTree videos there are some absolutely beautiful baseball stadiums on the East coast. I think Baltimore (unbelievable), Pittsburgh, Detroit, Milwaukee (even though the town sucks), and Toronto along with San Fran and I believe San Diego have good parks. Fenway is just meh one of those topics where everyone says it's amazing to the point that not only is it overrated, but doesn't give you a spark like some of the others. It is also in a crummy location - like the slums before getting to the financial district of Boston. Was disappointed in how ugly BU's campus also was, nothing like Harvard's, Duke's, or Colorado College's.

I wish I could be an NBA GM sometimes cause after last night I'd just keep calling Phoenix with a Mudiay + Kornet + 2nd for Bender + MIL 1st trade until they accepted. Mudiay's finally started thinking of what he's going to do at the end of his drive before he's already in the air, but that jumper is still too broked to ever become consistent & he plays about as much defense as Booker & Ayton...

Oh well, at least the knicks have 6 kids that look to be worth a damn for the first time in living memory...

 

[Bonzai12]

It’s an old ballpark but I truly love Kauffman. KC is an underrated place to go on a short weekend from Denver.

 

[AvsWraith]

Gotta give credit to Malone and the Nuggets. I've ****talked him a lot, but the wins the last two games after being down so many good players is pretty impressive.

Also, I HATE Case Keenum! Siemian was better, Orton was better, a guy you found at a bus station would be better.

Masterful coaching job by Vance Joseph

 

[Bonzai12]

is it just me or does Vance Joseph sound like Kermit the Frog when he does interviews?

 

[Pokecheque]

Didn't even bother watching. I can't believe the narrative of this team making the playoffs was ever even floated with the general public.

There are much better teams/products to watch. I've just become very apathetic toward the Broncos and the NFL in general.

 

[Bonzai12]

Same here Poke. A combination of the Kaepernick stuff, the concussions/rule changes, and the way the Broncos are being run have really soured me on the sport. Honestly I think it’s been a long time coming though. And I simply can’t devote 4 hours of my weekend to it anymore.
