Give 'em a taste of the Birdman and Billups (sounds like a sitcom doesn't it?). Let Melo make mincemeat of 'em I say. Just get it going already. No matter how much you are enjoying this Nuggets run I think everyone would agree with me that it takes too long to get to this point. An 8 month season followed by 4 months of playoffs. Or so it seems. It should be a fun one. And, really I can't complain. It gives me something other then the Rockies to draw about. Please click on more to see the rest of the blog.6May 18, 2009

I sat watching the Nuggets closing out the 3rd period of last nights playoff match-up against the Mavericks really strong. It was all over. The Nuggets played the 4th quarter to perfection, playing tenacious defense and running the basketball down the collective panting throats of the Mavs. It was brilliant and a vision of why the Nuggets are so very dangerous in the playoffs right now. When they move the ball, force it inside for easy shots it is a thing of beauty. It sets up the threes so well. The Nuggets outplayed the Mavs in the first two games. It goes back to Dallas and the going will be a bit tougher. if the Nuggets can steal one there it makes the Nuggets chances to advance very good. <strong>Caption Contest Going Strong</strong> The Contest is going great again this week. I encourage everyone to submit their entries early and often. And do me a favor. Tell two of your friends about the website and the contest. The more entries the funnier the contest.3May 6, 2009

The Mavericks looked positively baffled at the end of the game, and the Nuggets looking more like the cat who just wolfed the canary. It was a full day at the drawing board, working on tweaks to the website, a new cartoon for 9News, a Nuggets cartoon for drewlitton.com and a syndicated one for United Features as well. I absolutely dispel any myths about cartoonists who spend the day on the golf course. I hope you enjoy the changes we are making to make things a little more fun here on the blog. It will probably be Wednesday before you notice any changes.7May 3, 2009
