This season, there’s been nary a discouraging word said about Broncos QB Peyton Manning, who’s on one of the most spectacular runs in NFL history. But the medical journal Pediatrics is an exception to this rule. A new study just shared in the publication evaluates athlete endorsements in food marketing…
If the folks at Comcast wanted to maximize hatred and inspire customers to explore satellite delivery, they couldn’t have chosen a better time for a cable outage than at halftime of as crazy a Broncos game as any in recent memory — a 51-48 victory over the Dallas Cowboys not…
As the Denver Broncos get ready to face the Dallas Cowboys this Sunday, there’s no mistaking the fact that the team |(and QB Peyton Manning in particular) are off to one of the hottest starts in NFL history. They’ve scored 179 points over four wins (or 44.8 points per game),…
One of the most prominent clips of Boulder-based cyclocross racer Amy Dombroski declares that she had become a rock star — and that’s precisely how she was viewed locally and internationally. Her effervescent personality was matched by grit exemplified by the number of pics in which her face is spattered…
Last year, we created a list of the top ten most unusual Denver Broncos tattoos — and “unusual” was the nicest thing that could be said about some of them. Although, to be honest, we loved the Broncos Elvis. Now, with the Broncos 4-0 and looking pretty damn invincible, we…
Last week, our post previewing Eric & Jessie: Game On, the new E Network reality series featuring Broncos receiver Eric Decker and singer Jessie James was subtitled “Don’t hate them because they’re beautiful.” But that may be tough for some of those who caught last night’s debut. The show was…
The Broncos’ 52-20 destruction of the Philadelphia Eagles at Mile High Stadium yesterday was an appropriate prelude to last night’s final episode of Breaking Bad. Like Walter White, played so memorably by Bryan Cranston, Peyton Manning and his Denver teammates showed vulnerability at times. But in the end, they dispatched…
It’s going to be a busy Sunday for Broncos receiver Eric Decker. First, he and his team will take on the Philadelphia Eagles at Mile High Stadium — and then, at 8 p.m. our time, his new reality series, Eric and Jessie: Game On, is slated to bow on the…
The rivalry between your Denver Broncos and the Oakland Raiders runs so deep that our recent collection of Raiders suck memes only hints at the passions on both sides. But it’s tough to sustain the usual level of antipathy this year — because even though the Raiders are improving, the…
We’ve assembled two previous collections of Raiders suck memes, most recently in May, when Charles Woodson chose to sign with Oakland rather than Denver. But in just a few months, Memes Nation have come up with a whole batch of new ways to say that the Raiders suck — and…
This past May, as ex-Denver Nugget Chris “Birdman” Andersen was taking part in the NBA playoffs with his current team, the Miami Heat, a Douglas County Sheriff’s rep told us an Internet Crimes Against Children investigation into his actions was still ongoing after more than a year; see our previous…
About this time last year, we shared not one but two photo galleries featuring shots from the 2013 Broncos cheerleaders calendar shoot in Cancun. Now, the cheerleaders are inviting two people to join them at their next calendar-photo session, at an as-yet undetermined but sure-to-be exotic location — and it’s…
There are plenty of reasons to read Slow Getting Up: A Story of NFL Survival from the Bottom of the Pile, Nate Jackson’s breezy account of his struggles as a mostly backup player for six seasons. It’s grimly funny, surprisingly well-written, bristling with backstage stuff without seeming gossipy, rueful without…
As if last week’s NFL opener win over the Super Bowl champ Ravens wasn’t hype-filled enough, the latest Broncos game pitted ol’ Peyton against little bro Eli in the third, and possibly last, edition of what’s universally known as the Manning Bowl. Peyton had been 2-0 in previous matchups against…
As one of the break-out stars in the Broncos victory over the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday, tight end Julius Thomas, who caught two of QB Peyton Manning’s amazing seven touchdown passes, is getting more attention than ever. Hence his appearance on tonight’s edition of CBS4’s Xfinity Monday Live alongside host…
Particularly during dark times (like the Josh McDaniels era), Broncos fans have been accused of living in the past. But that’s nothing compared to the guy who wrote the headline for a story about last night’s Broncos’ win over the Ravens for the Columbus Dispatch. Rather than applauding Peyton Manning…
As a lifelong Broncos fan, I am typically paranoid as hell about the team — fearful that the brighter the spotlight, the more likely the squad is to screw up in it for all the world to see. And there were certainly some ugly moments during last night’s kickoff to…
We love the Broncos; we bleed orange; we have season tickets. But we just can’t quite muster enough righteous indignation to be angry about the Joe Flacco signs that went up around Denver last week, infuriating so many. Sportscaster Vic Lombardi pretended to be so upset about it that he…
While collecting the images we shared in our Tim Tebow cut memes post earlier today, we stumbled upon this graphic depiction of Mile High Stadium, complete with something new at midfield. Does it reveal the real secret to the Broncos’ success at home? Well, it didn’t do Von Miller any…
The Peyton Fuckin’ Manning T-shirts we highlighted earlier today may have turned heads before and after last night’s Broncos-Cardinals game, but as far as we know, none of them was featured on the TV broadcast. In contrast, the shirt above got unplanned screen time a couple years back during the…
Everyone knew last night’s Broncos preseason closeout against the Arizona Cardinals was meaningless. But when someone gives you free tickets at the last minute, does any of that matter? Hell, no. Even though the game ended with a 32-24 Cards win (and, reportedly, a serious injury when a man fell…
UPDATE: We have a winner! The tickets go to Jenn, who won with the following response:I’ve always wanted to go to this game. I just don’t know who to root for. 🙁 Poor me… I did my undergrad at CU and grad school at CSU. But I’m thinking the Rams…
