Nikola Jokic Is Back To Taunting Defenses With Absurd Passes
Nikola Jokic has gotten his groove back since his horrendous one-shot game against the Memphis Grizzlies last week.

Let's Remember Some Carmelo Anthony Highlights
Carmelo Anthony’s time with the Houston Rockets seems to be coming to a quick and humiliating end. This comes after an agonizing season with the Thunder and a productive but mostly disappointing tenure with the Knicks. It’s been true for long enough now that it can be said without qualification: Car...
Let's All Hope This Is As Bad As It Gets For Nikola Jokic

Jamal Murray Made Some Celtics Salty By Shamelessly Gunning For 50
Celtics-Nuggets was very, very fun. Kyrie Irving was cooking. Jamal Murray was cooking. No one else really had it, and so the game became a cook-off between two sublime shot-makers. Murray got the better of the matchup, exploding for a career-high 48 points, including 19 in the fourth quarter, to ca...
Report: The Broncos' Ownership Situation Is Getting Messy
Control of the Broncos organization was passed to a trust in 2014, when Annabel Bowlen announced that her husband, team owner Pat Bowlen, was too diminished by Alzheimer’s disease for him to continue running the team. The Broncos won the Super Bowl the following season, but the years since have been...
Broncos Cut Chad Kelly After He Allegedly Trespassed And Got Hit With A Vacuum Tube

Here Is Just A Totally Absurd Von Miller Highlight
Few things on a football field are easier to overlook than what goes on at the line of scrimmage. But sometimes a player does something so spectacular within that grunting tangle of limbs and padding that it can’t help but stand out as a highlight. Von Miller is one player capable of producing such ...
The Arizona Cardinals Are Toilet Soup
Von Miller called his shot earlier this week when he said his team would kick the Arizona Cardinals’ asses. The Broncos, who had lost four straight, had planned to take out their frustrations in tonight’s game. The hopeless bird men were happy to oblige....
What Is John Elway Talking About In This Inane Political Ad?
As a general rule, vague political advertisements are vague for a reason. Everything is broken and sinking and extremely on fire, but we’re not yet at the level of Shitworld where unpopular and unappealing ideas can effectively be presented as themselves and on their own merits. We are heading in th...
<i>Emergency Football Show Weekly</i>: The Roughing The Passer Rule Continues To Vex Defenders

Thank God The Boban Show Is Back
Nothing changes the complexion of an NBA game, or the welfare of its hoop apparatus, faster or more decisively than the release of Boban. The Nuggets knew this, but had no one who could impede him. The Clippers knew it, but they also know that Boban’s is a power that can be harnessed only for precio...
Broncos Fans Are Fed Up With Case Keenum
The first and most unmistakable sign that a team has a full-fledged QB controversy on its hands is when its coach denies there’s a controversy. “Case is our quarterback,” said Broncos coach Vance Joseph, which means that Case Keenum may not be Denver’s quarterback for all that long....
Emmanuel Sanders's Finger-Wag Celebration Cost The Broncos Dearly
I’ll be the first to admit that the taunting penalty is one of the lamest things about the NFL. In a hyper-aggressive game like football, you’ve got to give players room to express emotions on the field, otherwise it gets held in and boils over. That being said, this taunt might have been a little e...
Broncos Say Referees Admitted To Missing Chiefs' Delay Of Game During Winning Drive
Referees for Monday night’s Chiefs win over the Broncos admitted that one of the most dramatic plays of the game should not have been allowed to happen, according to multiple players on the Denver defense.

Improvised Lefty Pass Highlights Another Heroic Performance From The Unreal Patrick Mahomes
Monday night’s Chiefs-Broncos game was very, very fun, featuring more superhuman play from the impossibly good Patrick Mahomes. Mahomes completed 13 of 16 passes in the fourth quarter and engineered two long touchdown drives to bring the Chiefs back from a 23–13 deficit and into the lead. He complet...
Nuggets Coach Mike Malone Still Has His Handles
Mike Malone might resemble a dirty Baltimore cop with a good heart from some musty procedural, but he could still drop you with his crossover. Watch him ably dribble his way through a defensive drill with his players in Nuggets training camp....
Colorado Sports Fan's Plan To Rob Vape Store Falls Apart After He Drops Gun And Pants
This guy here, by appearances an avid Broncos and Rockies fan, spectacularly failed to rob an E-Cig of Denver store in Colorado on Sept. 2. Fumbling his gun over the counter was a bad start, and failing to secure his pants was a bad follow-up, although he did redeem himself somewhat with a super coo...
