NCAA Tourney: Everybody in the Pool

March 11th, 2010 7 Comments

The New Get Rich Quick Idea
I’m actually starting to think this could be the answer to the entire planets financial woes. A Pool on every corner. There’s always room for the entrepreneurial spirit in all of us. Much cheaper than a Starbucks franchise as well.

This year I won’t be taking part in a pool unless my wife and The Schnauzer are up for it. that’s the way it is when you work out of a home office. I was never any good in Office pools anyway. I think one year I was the only one who picked every 16th seed out of the hat.

Hey. I listen! A few of you said that you couldn’t read the comments that you left because of the dark grey background so, wah-lah, presto change-o. A few more of you thought the lettering neede more orange to match the menu bar. Fixed. I love your comments and I’ trying to do a better job of jumping in the midst of the conversation, so keep ‘em coming.

BIG ANNOUNCEMENT ON FRIDAY MORNING So please be sure to check back in for more toons and news.

Let the Mayhem begin! Get your brackets ready, your beverages on ice, and the pizza place on speed dial. It’s time for the madness to ensue.

So who do you think will win it all?

It’s Your Turn Denver!!

George Karl has given so much to the City of Denver and to the whole Nuggets organization. Time to leave him some sentiments here on the blog. We’ll make sure he see’s them. Side by side let’s get together and LIVESTRONG with George. A big thanks to my former Rocky colleague Paul Keebler. It was his idea to put a card like this we could sign online. So start leaving those comments!

A Nod to Sir Chauncey

February 15th, 2010 3 Comments

Easily one of my favorite athletes to play in Denver ever. And here’s one of my very favorite cartoons about him. It was a long day. I was scheduled for a root canal late this afternoon and it turned out it wasn’t so late. I missed the appointment. The Tribune called and need a cartoon for tomorrow (yeah, they’re using me more) and I thought we all needed a Chauncy break. Teh Tribune one will probably be my cartoon for Wednesday morning.

NBA Lockers of today…

Lawyers, guns and money

I’ve been meaning to get around to this topic for days now. Scary that this is really what it’s come to. Pulling a gun on a teammate in the locker room. Don’t you wish we could wander back to the days of Wooden. I know I do.

Arby’s Chris “Birdman” Andersen Glasses are Here!

December 1st, 2009 2 Comments

Here They Are
The official Arbys-Birdman-Litton cartoon collectible glasses.
They are rolling out this week at Arby’s restaurants statewide for $1.89 with a purchase of a sandwich. Thanks to Mark Bryant, The Birdman’s go-to guy (his agent) for making this happen. There are three glasses in the set. Collect them all. Some of the proceeds got to the Alliance for Choice in Education, a very worthy cause.
These pictures aren’t the best but they’ll give you some idea of what they look like.

Never too late for a forecast. This was in the November Mile High Sports Magazine (still on the newsstands)

Names

They used to be so simple. Then some clown changed his name to Ocho Cinco and now EVERYONE wants to get cute wiht the name on the jersey. I have one that J.R. can have free of charge. Lame.

Not so Instant Replay

November 12th, 2009 2 Comments

You call that Instant?

Anybody how happened to catch the Bulls-Nuggets game the other night no just how long “Instant” Replay takes. 4 minutes. 4 minutes to decide if somebody got a shot off in .03 seconds. There for awhile it looked as if they were caught up in an episode of CSI or Dancing with the Stars. I’m surprised they didn’t get John Madden out there with the telestrator. Geez. Make the call already and run for the exits. It’s “Instant” Replay, Not an hour long board meeting.

Bird’s Nest

Thank Goodness. There for a while I thought the Nuggets had lost there ever loving minds. I thought we had a bunch of Bird Brains on our hands. But finally somebody came to their senses, gave Chris Anderson a well deserved raise, and allowed Nuggets fans to breathe a sigh of relief.
