Yes, Troy Tulowitzki Did Have A Mullet When He Was An Adorable Child
We've always been big fans Troy Tulowitzki's once-prodigious mullet (bring it back, Troy!), but until today, we had no idea that it was also an homage to Tulo's younger days. Thanks to the Colorado Rockies' Instagram account, though, we can now enjoy this picture of a mulleted, 8-year-old version of...
MLB Should Probably Stop Scheduling April Games At Coors Field
Last week's four-game Mets-Rockies series featured two snow-outs, one of which was played as part of a supremely depressing doubleheader—a doubleheader, for that matter, which started two hours late because of an undermanned, overworked snow-clearing crew. The other game will probably be made up in ...

Here's An L.A. Kings Fan Dropping A Child To Catch A Hockey Stick

Costa Rica Is Not Happy About This
Last night it was very cold in Colorado, and there also may have been some precipitation. Despite the inclement weather, Costa Rica played its World Cup qualifier against the U.S. Men's National Team, and lost (fair and square) 1-0. For some reason, they are piqued. From Reuters:...
Wyoming Fans Chanted "Alcoholic!" At A Coach Who's A Recovering Alcoholic
File this one next to Duke fans (maybe) chanting "How's your grandma?" at a player whose grandmother had recently died. Next month, Colorado State basketball coach Larry Eustachy will have been sober for 10 years. It's also been 10 years since Eustachy was infamously photographed drinking with stude...
Chicago's Kiss Cam Is Almost As Hot As The Blackhawks
Here's a lady and gent thoroughly enjoying their time on the United Center's Kiss Cam during the Blackhawks win over the Colorado Avalanche. And why not?

Report: Carl Pavano Ruptured His Spleen Shoveling Snow
That's according to Ken Rosenthal, whose MLB sources told him the injury would keep the right-hander out for six to eight weeks. Then again, it might be much longer. Consider: Pavano is 37, he hasn't pitched since June 1 because of shoulder trouble, and he's still a free agent....
Colorado Hits Buzzer-Beater To Upset Third-Ranked Arizona, Referees Wave It Off For No Reason [UPDATE]
Colorado guard Sabatino Chen—who came into tonight's game averaging just 4.1 points per game—hit a buzzer-beater in Tucson to down third-ranked Arizona, only to find referees waving it off after a video review that appeared to back up the original call on the court of a good shot....

Boom Or Bust: 48 Hours At Leadville's Treacherous Ultramarathon
After 99.75 miles and more than 16 hours of running, Thomas Lorblanchet comes striding slowly down 6th Street in Leadville, Colo.

Woody Paige Reported That Colorado Hired A Football Coach. Colorado Has Not Hired A Football Coach.
There it is, you guys. Denver Post columnist and ESPN clown-bro Woody Paige did a real bang-up job of shoe-leather reporting last night. He was first with the news that Butch Jones was leaving the University of Cincinnat—wait, what?...
