Moser, Lombardi and Kane

0:00 - The Avalanche haven't played a game since Sunday and still don't have a second round opponent yet. What's Head Coach Jared Bednar been up to in his time off? Is he worried about the whole "Rust vs Rest" debate? How's Josh Manson healing up? What are the takeaways from the series vs LA that they can take into the next round?

18:45 - Justin Simmons announced his retirement from football today, and he signed a one-day contract so he can retire as a member of the Denver Broncos. That's awesome. Welcome back to Denver, Justin. We missed you. Congrats on a fantastic career in Orange and Blue.
Speaking of former Broncos...Luca "My Name is Luca" Evans published an article in the Denver Post yesterday where he sat down with Von Miller and asked him what his future holds. Von said he'd love to return to Denver. Not as a player, but as a member of the front office. Someday, Von hopes to be an NFL GM. Is that a good idea? Would you like to see Von somewhere in the Broncos front office?

33:05 - Oh, by the way...Shelby Harris just signed a deal with the NY Football Giants. Congrats to the former Bronco! He keeps finding new spots. Oh, by the way...the NCAA men's basketball tournament is expanding to 76 teams effective next season. Official announcement coming soon. Oh, by the way...a man ran the London Marathon while dressed in a Thomas the Tank Engine costume and set a Guiness World Record in the process.

0:00 - Did you hate-watch Minnesota vs Dallas last night? We certainly did. We had nothing else to do. Let them fight! This series had better go 7!

16:28 - Now that the smoke has cleared and the State of Minnesota is no longer out for Vic's head, let's take a look at Game 6. Will the rabid home crowd help give the Timberwolves the boost they need to rattle off a win with the depleted roster?
Also, the NBA is finally narrowing down a new plan to curb tanking. And stop me if you've heard this before...Brett STILL doesn't think it'll ACTUALLY fix tanking.

34:49 - Broncos news broke yesterday. From Ian Rapoport: Bo Nix had a "follow-up cleanup procedure" on his fractured ankle. He should be back in time for training camp, but don't be surprised if they take it easy with him in the spring, according to Rapoport. Supposedly, this is all pretty standard. But at which point do we start to worry about ankle issues? Especially for such a mobile QB.

0:00 - Last night, the Nuggets played with physicality! They were enforcers! That's what we've wanted to see all series long, heck, all season long! Valanciunas spoke about it in his postgame comments. Being physical was part of the game plan.

14:55 - The Timberwolves will be without Anthony Edwards and Donte DiVincenzo for the rest of the series. But make no mistake: the Nuggets are missing their 2 best defenders. It'll be easier for them to win, but it won't be a cakewalk. They still have VERY little room for error in Game 6. 

32:22 - The Nuggets are off tonight. The Avalanche won't play another game for like a week? Two weeks? Three weeks? Who knows!? So what are you watching tonight?

0:00 - What was your favorite play or moment from Denver's Game 5 win over the Timberwolves last night? There were lots of options to choose from, thankfully.

14:51 - What are the biggest post-NFL draft questions for the Denver Broncos according to Jeff Legwold? What needs to they still need to fill?

31:54 - Oh, by the way...only 71 players have declared for the NBA Draft so far. That's WAY down from even 5 years ago. Why is that? Oh, by the way...Garet Bolles helped a stranger change their tire on the side of the road. Oh, by the way...Younghoe Koo's bonkers whiffed kick from this past season actually saved a man's life.

0:00 - What do we say to the God of Death? Not today! The Nuggets won game 5 and stayed alive in the series vs Minnesota! They finally played with physicality and didn't let Jaden McDaniels do what Jaden McDaniels does. 

15:01 - Yesterday, the entire state of Minnesota wanted Vic's head on a stake (think Lord of the Flies) for saying that the Nuggets needed to intentionally injure Jaden McDaniels to send a message. Here's the thing...Vic never said that. At all. Not even close. He only asked for "repercussions" to Jaden McDaniels' tomfoolery. Today, Vic responded to the angry residents of the Twin Cities (and beyond).

31:55 - Have you been following the NHL and NBA playoffs much? Outside of the Nuggets and Avs, which playoff series have you been following?

0:00 - How do the Nuggets fix their offense, and fix it ASAFP?

14:20 - Joker doesn't look like himself out there. Something is off with him. Heck, something is off with the entire team. 

31:08 - It's win or go home for the Nuggets! What are the keys to a game 5 victory? Also, two people ran the London Marathon in less than 2 hours this weekend. That's unreal. If we took all 4 of us on this show and did relay race, could we combine for 1 sub-5 minute mile?

0:00 - The NFL Draft is in the books! Do we like the Broncos picks? How did the Law Firm of Payton and Paton do this year?

14:10 - Jaden McDaniels has been punking the Nuggets since 2024, and they keep letting him get away with it! We're not mad at McDaniels for breaking an unwritten rule...we're mad at the Nuggets for letting him do it AGAIN! That has to end tonight. Period. Someone needs to stand up to him.

32:06 - Oh, by the way...The Rockies SWEPT THE METS! On the road! How do you like them (Big) apples? Oh, by the way...Diego Pavia didn't get drafted this weekend. From Heisman finalist to undrafted. Yikes. Oh, by the way...Canadiens Head Coach Martin St. Louis handles the stress of the playoffs by watching Seinfeld.

0:00 - The Nuggets lost Game 4 to the Timberwolves, and they've been pushed to the brink of elimination. Minnesota lost 2 of their best players in that game, and the Nuggets still couldn't rally for a win. That was a tough look on Saturday night. Where's the fire? Where's the competitive spirit?

14:29 - As if Denver's loss wasn't bad enough, Jaden McDaniels punked them AGAIN. At least Jokic got in his face about it this time.

33:04 - The Kings played the Avalanche in the first round and it was a waste of 8 days. Darryl Sutter's quote still rings true 4 years later. Congrats to the Avs for taking care of business. After the game yesterday, Kings Interim Head Coach DJ Smith was very complimentary of the Avs.

0:00 - The Avs won in LA last night and they now lead the series 3-0. Josh Manson left with an apparent injury, but aside from that, it was an awesome night all around. What can we expect in Game 4? LA knows the series is all but done. Are they gonna go down swinging and try to beat the heck out of the Avs? Especially since it could be Kopitar's last-ever game in a Kings sweater. 

14:10 - In his postgame presser yesterday, our old friend Jaden McDaniels said just seeing the Nuggets motivates them. They see the name on the front of the jersey and they want to beat those guys. What motivates the Nuggets?

31:40 - Man, do we need it today. 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 - It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. We're all trying to work through the pain of last night's Nuggets loss together. We're shocked. Flabbergasted. Embarrassed. Dejected. Angry. All of that this morning.
On the other hand, way to go Avs! They're one win away from sweeping the LA kings out of the playoffs. This series is all but done. It's all hands on deck. Every night, they're getting contributions from someone new.

13:38 - The LA Rams made an interesting pick in the first round of the NFL Draft yesterday, and Sean McVay himself seemed a bit perplexed.
After that, whose job is it to motivate the Nuggets? Is it on Coach Adelman? Or is it on the players themselves? For Vic, it's not even a question which one is more important.

32:07 - Oh, by the way...the Eagles swooped in and drafted a player from the Steelers while he was ON THE PHONE with the Steelers GM! Oh, by the way...a Braves pitcher made him MLB debut yesterday and his very first pitch went oppo taco for a home run. That's not right, man. You first career PITCH can go for a home run. Oh, by the way...the Philadelphia Flyers are offering an alternative to the 9-9-9 challenge.
