Moser, Lombardi and Kane

0:00 - The Nuggets are officially back on the court TONIGHT. Now that the entire offseason and preseason is in the books, how are we feeling, Nuggets Nation?

15:55 - Bo Nix addressed the media yesterday, and he was asked about lingering issues with his ankle. AnkleGate just won't go away, will it? He admitted, more or less, that it's still bothering him and he's still working through it all (both mentally and physically).

33:23 - Last night, LaMelo Ball had one of the worst travels we've ever seen on an NBA court, and it wasn't called. James Harden truly ruined this league.
After that, Wemby desperately wants to be "deep thoughts" guy who people quote for years to come. It works for some, but it doesn't work for others.

0:00 - Moser got back from the Avs East Coast road trip at like 2:30am. And before he went to bed, we made him record a Voice Memo with his analysis of last night's loss to the Devils. It was just as loopy and nonsensical as you'd expect.

13:26 - Justin Dodge of the Heavy Victory Podcast joined us in studio today on the eve of the new Nuggets season. Justin is the Denver police officer who got trapped under a fire truck during the Nuggets championship parade and lost his leg. He's turned his tragedy into an opportunity to help others. He came back stronger from his disaster, and you can too. Find Heavy Victory anywhere you stream your podcasts, and Altitude Plus.

31:05 - With the Broncos, style points matter. Clearly they do! Because they're 4-2, they're winning consistently, and no one is happy about it. Our show last Friday was the angriest show we've ever done after a win in primetime, over the defending Super Bowl champs, no less! Winning ugly isn't going to cut it anymore. They need to star winning pretty.

0:00 - Avs were on the 2nd night of a back-to-back. They lost in Philly, headed straight to Jersey, licked their wounds got ready to bounce back and...did the exact same thing. Started slow, looked sluggish, and lost to the Devils. Is it a fluke? Or is something amiss with this Avalanche squad?

13:44 - Can the Broncos offense flip the switch? Because we SAW IT! We saw them turn it on in the first half of the Seattle game! They scored TDs! Plural! But then the switch flipped back and they did the same ol' same ol'. How do we get them to flip the switch and keep it flipped?

31:11 - Oh, by the way...CSU's new DC sleeps in his office. They converted it into a bedroom for him. Jim Mora said he hasn't been home in weeks...cool, man. Good for you, I suppose.
Oh, by the way...a Virginia man is being charged with duct taping his wife to a chair in the basement so he could watch football upstairs "in peace."
Oh, by the way...Flames goalie Devin Cooley (former DU Pioneer) has an interesting strategy for success: stop thinking.

0:00 - The Avs lost to the Devils on the 2nd night of a back-to-back. Different night, same result. The Avs looked SLUGGISH again. Tired. Disjointed. What's going on with this team right now?
Moser's not on the show today. He traveled with the team last night and got home at like 3am. We're letting him sleep in. But when he got home, we had him record a voice memo with his sleep-deprived breakdown of the game.

15:37 - Hey Broncos! GO GET JONATHAN TAYLOR. The Colts won't make him available, but if they do, go get him! Who cares about future draft picks or whatever?? Broncos are squarely in a Win Now Window. Bleep them picks.

32:37 - The NBA is officially underway! What did we think of the 3 games yesterday? How 'bout those LeBron 76ers? We had our eyes on the Spurs vs Thunder game in particular. They're both still the biggest threats in the West.

Adam Schefter made his weekly appearance with us today! What does he think of all (most) of his media brethren criticizing Bo Nix, especially former NFL QBs? Does Schefty have any more info about the Jalen Hurts blood clot situation that sent shockwaves through the NFL world yesterday?

0:00 - It's an 82, I mean-84 game season. There will be duds sometimes. Like last night, when the Avalanche lost to arguably the worst team in the entire NHL. Not great.
After that, Colin Cowherd had some thoughts on the anemic Broncos offense after Thursday Night Football. And he had to do what he always does: criticize Bo Nix and praise Sean Payton.

14:32 - Adam Schefter made his weekly appearance with us today! What does he think of all (most) of his media brethren criticizing Bo Nix, especially former NFL QBs? Does Schefty have any more info about the Jalen Hurts blood clot situation that sent shockwaves through the NFL world yesterday?

32:57 - Coach Adelman had nothing but good things to say about DeMar DeRozan after practice the other day. Hopefully, DeRozan can fill that "Veteran at the end of his career who's willing to do anything/take any role to win his first title" spot that Russell Westbrook once held.

0:00 - With Monday Night Football in the books, let's reflect on the wild wild NFL weekend that was!

14:18 - Nuggets Legend Dan Issel has a new book coming out later this week that chronicles his entire career from the NCAA to the ABA to the NBA. He joined the fellas this morning to reflect on his playing days & preview the upcoming Nuggets season. Do they finally have the horses, if you will, to bring the title back to Denver? 

33:10 - Oh, by the way...The Lakers just cut Dalton Knecht. Should the Nuggets bring the hometown kid back to Colorado?
Oh, by the way...rumors are swirling that basically every single NFL team wants to trade for Jonathan Taylor. Do you REALLY think the Colts would let him go?
Oh, by the way...who is Brandon Miller? Because he just signed a 5-year, $209 million extension with the Charlotte Hornets.

0:00 - Last night, the Avalanche lost to arguably the worst team in the NHL. Yikes. What went wrong in Philly?

15:49 - Brett had a realization last night while watching Monday Night Football. The 49ers formula for success is the one the Broncos COULD be using.

32:51 - Vic found a super cringey video of a BYU fan doing a whole lip sync thing in the stands at the game vs Notre Dame. He said "If I ever catch any of your guys doing this we all fight." Here's the thing...Vic's the only one of the 4 of us who would actually do something like this.
Also, the World Series is set: the Rays vs the Brewers. Two small market, low-payroll teams. Isn't it ironic? A lockout is probably coming because the MLB wants to implement changes that will level the playing field and make it easier for small market teams to compete.

0:00 - The College Football Playoff is expanding to a 24-team format. Will the expansion really give the people what they want? Will it make the postseason more "compelling" and give more "deserving" teams a chance to compete? Or will it just dull the shine of the regular season?

14:15 - CU lost a close game to Utah at Folsom on Saturday. And Coach Prime praised his guys for fighting and competing to the bitter end, even in the loss. That's not something Prime usually does. 

33:24 - Avalanche are in the City of Brotherly Love tonight! What are Moser's Keys to the Game?
Also, why are so many Broncos fans opposed to criticizing Bo Nix? What's wrong with having standards for you team?

0:00 - It's Monday at 8am, so let's catch up with Ryan Harris! He was on the O-Line that blocked for Peyton Manning en route to a Super Bowl title. What does he think about all these former NFL QBs/players coming after Bo Nix? Are their criticisms valid?

13:13 - What a WILD NFL weekend. This season has been full of surprises so far. The script writers are absolutely COOKING. What are some of the biggest takeaways? Brett thinks he has an accurate comp for the Broncos. There's one team in the NFL that follows (almost) the exact same formula for success.

33:33 - Oh, by the way...the SEC fined Tennessee a smooth $500K. Why, you ask? Because Vols fans stormed the field after they beat Alabama. Lots of conferences have instituted field storming fines, but how does that deter fans at all? The university has to foot the bill, not the student section.
Oh, by the way...KJ Lacey Jr. is getting more first team reps in practice for the Texas Longhorns. Are Arch Manning's days numbered as a starter?
Oh, by the way...there's a website that tracks in real time how much money Connor Hellebuyck is losing while he refuses to play for the Jets.
