So I listen to 104.3 the fan on my commute. I happened to catch pretty much all of King-Dmac.
It started when King accepted an invitation to Interview with Zach Bye and Brandon Stokley. When King did the interview he totally sabotaged it... Badly.
Dmac later tweeted in defense of Stokley, and basically said if you don't want to interview - don't agree to it and if you do interview at least know you are being interviewed by a former Bronco.
King replied to Dmac " suck a %$#&".
The next day at practice King approached Dmac and confronted him.
Now I agree that Dmac is near his time, and I generally disagree with him. He is way too negative and pessimistic and speaks his mind too cavalierly. That being said, in this case he is 100% in the clear.
As to the Rockies - Hard to believe Davis leads the league in saves. I applaud the Rox for realizing their weak spot was bullpen and then spending a kings fortune on it, but man did it go poorly for them!

I'm not here to say Marquette King is in the right here, because he's clearly not. That inane tweet and his boorish behavior toward a member of the media is unacceptable no matter what. And yes, I heard about the interview that started all of this.
I'm still not okay with so-called sports journalists making themselves the story. It just reeks of the same Stephen A. Smith/Skip Bayless nonsense that ultimately made me turn ESPN off permanently. It's the radio/TV equivalent of clickbait. Yes, Marquette King acted like a jerk in an interview. So what? Get over it. I don't care if he started it, do your damn job and cover what the team does on the field. They rightly deserve to be mocked by guys like Vic Lombardi.

People actually listen to The Fan? Can't get enough Broncos news from NFL, ESPN, every single local news sports show, every single sports radio show, and the insane amount of Bronco fans in CO? It's not like you can't leave your house and have people talk about how relevant Peyton Manning still is...

Well that was a stinker of a preseason game. Same garbage coaching staff. Same old garbage Paxton Lynch. No run defense, poor predictable offensive play calling.
Anyone who thinks this team is any better than a 4-12, 5-11 type team is out to lunch. You simply can't win in this league with garbage coaching that doesn't have the team ready to compete.

DU's Hockey schedule.
I as excited to see Wisco, but then realized it was on the road. Anyway it should be on TV so we can get a look at Sampo and scout Turcotte.

For the third consecutive season and the 8th time in 13 seasons, the Denver Outlaws have advanced to the Major League Lacrosse championship game.
They will play the Dallas Ratters next Saturday at 5:00 PM Mountain Time at a neutral site in Charleston.
Last year the Outlaws blew a substantial lead to cough up the game, but prior to that they won the title in two out of three seasons.
If they can pull this one off it will be their third MLL championship and the seventh sports championship won by the Bowlen ownership group (to go with 3 Super Bowls and 1 Arena Bowl).

Pretty much sums up my thoughts. Out of all these up and comer coaches that we were promised I don’t think a single one has actually shown any merit.
That being said, I’ll gladly take another high first rounder and the removal of VJ/Paxton if that’s the fruits of this season’s disaster.
But the Ottawa Red Blacks own the Broncos pick this year.

I was getting alerts on my phone about the broncos game and was confused when I saw Trevor scoring touchdowns and then looked and we were down. I totally forgot we got rid of him lol.
I'm tuned out of the NFL right now and from what everyone is saying I don't think that that preseason game gave me any reason to really pay attention this year.

The NFL is going to be a farce anyway with their new, idiotic rules on tackling and what not.
Elway really screwed things up when he decided Wade Phillips wasn't worth retaining as D-coordinator, then made things worse by picking a horribly inexperienced assistant as his next head coach, then doubled down on him and his complete bust of a QB pick.
Ah well, less than a month before NHL training camps open, that's all I care about, and I'm actually looking forward to this upcoming NBA season, to my own surprise.

I gotta be honest, I just can't get excited about Tiger anymore. I get why others are, but I just can't, and I practically worshipped the guy back in the day.

I'm a sucker for it. The last two majors is the most golf I've watched in years and it's all because Tiger was in contention in the final round.

To the window!
Tiger’s a great story right now. If he ever wins another major it will be phenomenal after all of the physical and emotional shit he’s gone through over the last 5 years.
I'm sorry but a great deal of that was self-inflicted. He was a golden boy up until the incident with his wife. I'm not begrudging him the knee injury and subsequent addiction issues, but the other bad behavior is entirely on him.
And honestly I don't really care much if a rock star, athlete, or celebrity makes poor decisions for the most part. I mean, I ain't the morality police and I don't consider Tiger, John Elway, or even Ray Bourque a role model per se, I just really like or liked them as athletes. But I simply can't ignore the off-course stuff in his case. He has every right to reclaim his greatness and I'd be happy for him if he succeeds...but I'm just not a big fan of his any longer.
I don't blame people one bit for getting excited about him, but I have to wonder if it's because he's so compelling a presence or because the rest of the men's golfing world simply isn't.
Even the most exciting golfer is still a golfer, and therefore boring.
