0:00 - Brock Nelson had himself a DAY for Team USA yesterday! He scored 2 goals en route of a 5-1 drubbing of Latvia. You love to see it. Can we fast forward to USA vs Canada for the goal already? And more importantly, will anyone be able to stop team Canada?
After that, former CU TE and 2x Super Bowl champion Christian Fauria ripped Deion Sanders on Zach Gelb's podcast. He said Deion can't coach, doesn't honor the school's traditions, and needs to string together wins to go with the eyeballs on the program and relevancy. Vic said some of his comments are spot on, but he missed the mark in a few places.

14:28 - The Radio Voice of YOUR DENVER NUGGETS Jason "Koz" Kosmicki woke up way to early to chat with us this morning. How is he feeling about this squad at the All-Star Break? 

32:49 - It's our favorite part of the week DRUNK TAKES! We take clips from throughout the week, slow em down to half speed and it makes us sound like we're hammered.

0:00 - Broncos Ownership held a meeting yesterday at La Alma Rec Center. They let fans, journalists, and concerned citizens ask them any/every question about the new stadium and how the plan to develop/re-develop Burnham Yard and the neighborhood surrounding the stadium. DMac was in attendance, so he joined us in studio to tell us what he learned at the Broncos HOA meeting.

17:14 - At the Broncos HOA meeting, people were allowed to write their concerns/comments/suggestions on Post-It notes and stick them on a specific wall for all to see! What are some of our favorite Post-Its from the Broncos Country Wall? Somehow, that turned into a fiery debate between DMac and Vic about...bike lanes?

32:31 - Oh, by the way...Love him or hate him, you have to appreciate LeBron James' longevity. He still looks like he's 28 years old out there, not 41. Oh, by the way...did you see the NBA want to expand again? Oh, by the way...there's DEFINITELY another MLB lockout coming sooner rather than later.

0:00 - Brock Nelson buried Latvia yesterday in Olympic hockey. He scored 2 goals, and had another one called off due to a penalty! Hey, rest of the world: get ready to learn Free Bird, buddy. USA hockey is comin (both men's and women's!)

14:53 - According to Kaner, Bo Nix is Russell Wilson...and that's not actually a bad thing.

35:20 - Joe Judge, Ole Miss QB Coach, testified at Trinidad Chambliss' NCAA hearing and had an...interesting take on parenthood that arose during the proceedings.

0:00 - Is our Broncos Insider Jeff Legwold stoked about Australian punters? What's the top priority for the Broncos in the offseason? Are the Broncos Super Bowl or Bust right now?

15:21 - Gabriel Landeskog hit the ice for the first time in 5 weeks yesterday...with Team Sweden. And that's fine! It's okay that he returned from injury to represent his country instead of making his return with the Avs! This is a non-story. Don't overthink it.

33:01 - The Nuggets needed the All-Star Break desperately. Rest up, boys. Because after the break, the schedule doesn't get any easier. Far from it. The first 6 games after the break are TOUGH.

0:00 - How many CU players will be at the NFL Combine this year? Take a second...think of a guess...think of a number...here's the answer: zero. Not a single CU football player was invited to the combine. For a head coach who touts his ability to find Louis and Gucci in the portal, the data would suggest otherwise. Again, this begs the question: heading into Year 4 at CU, what are reasonable expectations for Neion Deion and his $10 mil/year salary?

15:58 - The Avalanche and Nuggets are both squarely in championship or bust windows. But what about the Broncos? If they don't reach the AFC Championship again next year, is it a disappointment? Or would you be okay with that because they "overperformed" this year?

26:34 - Oh, by the way...both CU and K-State Men's Basketball got blown out of the water by Texas Tech and Cincinnati (respectively). Both head coaches were frustrated with their team after the game. Understandably so. Also, by the way, they love punting in Australia ESPECIALLY in the Super Bowl.

0:00 - It shouldn't have been a nailbiter, but it was. Whatever. A win is a win. The Nuggets head into the All-Star Break with a dub, as it should be.

14:30 - Some people on our radio station who shall remain nameless (but their show name is an acronym for a college degree) said it was weird that Landeskog made his return from injury in the Olympics. He really couldn't play for the Avs before the break? And he's magically healthy to play for Sweden now? Why wouldn't he return after the Olympics?
Brett explains why this logic is flawed, and why you should have no problem with Landy's return to the ice representing his country. 

34:02 - The NBA overhauled the All-Star Game format in an attempt to make it competitive. Will it work? Kevin Durant says that's up to the international players.

0:00 - Vic chatted one-on-one with Danilo Gallinari since he'll be honored at the game tonight. In that conversation, he asked Gallo a question that you NEVER ask another Italian man. Vic embarrassed the family.
The Nuggets are hosting the Memphis Grizzlies tonight in the last game before the All-Star Break. What are the Keys to a Nuggets victory?

12:33 - Vic's old radio partner once upon a time Kyle Keefe joined the show today to talk about everything from Olympics hockey to cartoon sports broadcasts...since he's doing one later this month.

34:15 - With all the aprons and luxury/repeater taxes, it will be tough for the Nuggets to keep Peyton Watson on the roster next year. Aprons be damned. Do whatever you have to do to keep him in Denver.

0:00 - All sports leagues have tried to curb "tanking." If you ask the commissioner of any major sports league, they'll tell you tanking is not a thing! We have measures in place to prevent that. Well if that's the case, how do you explain what the Utah Jazz are doing right now?

14:50 - Kris Bryant is still going through a debilitating back injury. Never mind playing baseball. He's just trying to return to a normal quality of life. Shockingly, he'll start the season on the 60-day IL, meaning he'll miss the first 57 games of the Rockies season AT LEAST. What on Earth are the Rockies supposed to do with this guy? He may never set foot on a baseball diamond again, and the Rockies owe him gobs of money for the next few years.
That sent us down a rabbit hole of the oldest athletes of all time.

34:52 - Oh, by the way...did you see that Norwegian Skiier sprinting uphill on SKIS? At a sub-6 minute mile pace???

0:00 - The Nuggets are playing the struggling Grizzlies tonight at Ball Arena in their last game before the All-Star Break. The goal for the Nuggets is simple. Beat a bad team on your home court, go into the break on a high note, come back healthy and ready to go. Also, Christian Braun spoke to PHD yesterday and gave more information about his injury and recovery process.

16:16 - Men's Olympic Hockey prelims start this morning! We won't see US and Canada till tomorrow, but both Finland and Sweden will play today. And it looks like Gabe Landeskog will return to the ice for the first time since his injury.

35:02 - Brett has a wish list for the Broncos this offseason. Who does he want to see in oreange and blue? Do we agree? Are his wishes realistic?

The 2025 NFL Season is in the books! What did Adam Schefter think of Super Bowl 60? Which players might be shuffled around in the offseason? Is the league contemplating any changes? Let's pick Schefty's brain in his last weekly appearance for a while.
