There was worry in Broncos Nation after the squad had a tougher time than anticipated versus Dallas and Jacksonville, then lost to the Indianapolis Colts. But Sunday’s big win over Washington amped up the optimism at the Broncos Memes Facebook page to the level seen in our last memes collection,…
Yesterday morning, KOA morning-show host Steffan Tubbs made a classic broadcasting mistake — dropping an F-bomb during a commercial break when he incorrectly thought his microphone was no longer live. His comment? He opined that Nicole Polizzi, better known as Snooki, is “fucking ugly.” KOA announced that Tubbs would be…
On Monday, we shared the top twenty tweets spawned by ex-Denver coach Mike Shanahan’s Washington Redskins allegedly faking injuries in an attempt to slow down the Broncos. Some readers felt nothing could do to prevent such a scheme — but one floated a possible solution…
Denver blog posts don’t need to go door to door. At our Show and Tell blog, Bree Davies calls for an end to shaming grown women with slutty Halloween costumes. Denver Egotist announces the final call for the 2013 Denver Fifty. They’ve got your number. Mile High Hockey’s Andi D…
Last week, the Denver Post announced six layoffs — the sort of downsizing that’s all too common at daily newspapers. But many online news outlets are struggling, too, thanks to funding difficulties and more. Against this backdrop, the education website EdNews Colorado is not only growing its small staff, but…
Earlier this year, golfer Tiger Woods and Vail skier Lindsey Vonn announced that they’re dating — and had changed their Facebook status. So naturally, Tiger was a major topic during an especially flirty Vonn appearance on last night’s episode of The Late Show with David Letterman. There was the saucy…
If there’s one type of person we should be able to rely on in this crazy world of ours, it’s a guy we met online who wants to buy a monkey. Okay, maybe not, as a Missouri woman learned the hard way. Police say the woman was pepper sprayed and…
Update: Two readers sent us a pics of their Colorado pride tattoo. See them on the last page of this post. Last year, we shared our picks for the top eight Colorado flag tattoos. Since then, the state symbol has only become more ubiquitous — so it’s no surprise that…
Hanging over the entry of the suburban home in Frederick was the sort of decoration that’s commonplace in the days leading to Halloween: a winged Grim Reaper. But what was once a symbol of holiday high spirits had been transformed into something much more literal. That’s because a three year…
Update: Since we told you about the attempted kidnapping of an eight-year-old girl from her Aurora bedroom early yesterday morning (see our previous coverage below), local authorities have made the still-unknown perpetrator their highest priority. In addition to releasing a sketch of the suspect in conjunction with a press conference…
We recently reported about the controversy over an Arapahoe Basin executive announcing that skiers caught smoking marijuana in public at the resort could lose their lift ticket — a warning that stirred plenty of controversy. But one important factor may not have been fully considered by those on either side…
A reader comment about preferring stoned skiers over drunk assholes spurred lots of conversation about the distinctions between the two. Some readers rejected both types, while one came down firmly on the side of those who smoke, even though she doesn’t personally do so. Here’s her take…
Denver blog posts are rooting for everyone to survive. South Stands Denver’s Colin Daniels offers a guide to starting a Walking Dead fantasy league. Is your money on Rick? Glenn? Maggie? Michonne? Colorado Peak Politics on a reporter with Colorado ties and the federal search of her home. Denver Egotist:…
On Saturday, proud owners of pit bulls (and some other breeds) took part in Littleton’s Parade of Pit Bulls, an event staged in conjunction with National Pit Bull Awareness Day. With Halloween right around the corner, many of the parade participants were in costume, and photographer Darian Simon was on…
Late last night, a report of shots fired in Commerce City resulted in an ugly accident. Specifically, a train hit and dragged a car that the shooting suspects had used in a failed attempt to escape. Although three people have been arrested, there are a lot of unanswered questions at…
Boulder District Attorney Stan Garnett is one of the most open and accessible elected officials in the state — but in the matter of newly released true bills accusing John and Patsy Ramsey of culpability in the 1996 murder of JonBenet Ramsey, their daughter, he’s keeping mum, with his only…
It’s been almost a year since we dipped into the pool of weirdness known as Boulder Craigslist’s “Rants and Raves” to highlight the ten weirdest posts there. And whaddya know: We discovered a fresh supply of bizarre posts — some funny, some odd, some completely indescribable. Look below to check…
The Broncos’ 45-21 win over Washington Sunday wasn’t the laugher the score implies. Denver trailed 21-7 in the third quarter before reeling off 38 points — an onslaught Broncos coach turned Washington head man Mike Shanahan apparently (read: definitely) tried to slow by having players fake injuries. Fans at the…
Yesterday’s post about radio preacher Kevin Swanson’s claim that buying Girl Scout cookies promotes lesbianism inspired a heaping helping of responses, many of them flat-out hilarious. This was one of our favorites…
Denver blog posts are always attractive. South Stands Denver’s Colin Daniels thinks Colorado’s pot laws could convince ballers to sign up with the Nuggets. Colorado Pols: Jennifer “CAPartyGirl” Kerns tries to export Colorado voter recalls of gun-law reformers. Coyote Gulch: Can the Weld County commissioners advocate for the 51st State…
After nearly seventeen years, the death of Boulder’s JonBenet Ramsey is still capable of commanding attention, as exemplified by the way the national media’s covered the release earlier today of a never-acted-upon 1999 grand jury indictment aimed at her parents, John and Patsy (who died in 2006). But for some…
We’d like nothing better than for our Mile High Murder archive to be starved of content — but that’s definitely not the case this week. We’ve already posted about the killing of John Goggin, for which Floyd Sandoval has been arrested, and the death of Vincente Penaloza and the ongoing…
