About

Colorado born and bred, I will use this site as a place to blog mostly about my favorite teams, which are the Nuggets, Avalanche, Broncos, Angels...I am really close to giving up on the Rockies with the terrible Matt Holliday trade this offseason. To me the division is wide open, why not take a shot going into the year with Holliday and if they stink in mid July, then trade him to a contender...I'd like to see some new owners as the Monforts act is tiresome.

Short List

  • Favorite Athletes

    Jim Edmonds (singlehandedly made me an Angels fan, the allegiance stuck after he moved on), Michael Adams, LaPhonso Ellis, Robert Pack, Alex English, Fat Lever, John Elway, Dennis Smith, Andres Galarraga, Peter Forsberg, Joe Sakic, Marek Svatos, Steve Atwater, Caron Butler, Kevin Durant Least Favorite: Nikoloz Skitizshvili (yeah Kiki, way to pass on Amare TWICE!)

  • Favorite Sports Teams

    Denver Nuggets, Denver Broncos, Colorado Avalanche, Colorado Rockies, Los Angeles Angels, North Carolina Tarheels Hoops, Colorado St. anything

  • Favorite Coaches

    Admire: Phil Jackson, Stan/Jeff Van Gundy, Mike Shanahan, Doug Moe, Mike Scioscia, Mike Tomlin, Sonny Lubick... Fun To Mock: Rich Kotite, Maury Wills, Clint Hurdle, Grady Little, Herm Edwards (unintentional comedy factor)

  • All Time Sports Moment

    Broncos First Super Bowl Win (Yeah the Avalanche got it done first chronologically, in their 1st year here, I felt bad for Nordique fans...but the Broncos win was the first championship that really hit home for me)

  • Most Memorable Game Attended

    13 Rows behind 3rd base dugout as Matt Holliday "Scored" the winning run in the play in game against the San Diego Padres in 2007

  • Most Unbreakable Sports Record

    Pete Rose 3,562 Games Played/Wilt Chamberlain's 20,000 (tie)

  • Ruth or Mays?

    this is tough....Ruth wasn't the 5 tool powerhouse Mays was, so I'll say Mays

  • Unitas or Montana?

    Only because Montana killed the Broncos every time, Unitas.

  • Jordan or Russell?

    Jordan, if only because I am too young to have seen Bill Russell...can't sneeze at 11 championships in 13 seasons though...wow!

  • Gretzky or Orr?

    Once again, Gretzky b/c Orr played before I was born.

  • Pele or Maradona?

    I don't know who Maradona is, so Pele

  • Federer or Sampras?

    I think Sampras won against a more competitive field...nowdays its Nadal/Federer in almost every major final....Federer is probably the better overall player

  • Tiger or Nicklaus?

    I can't pick one here...love them both.

  • Petty or Earnhardt?

    Don't Care....making a gradual left hand turn for 500 miles doesn't impress me

  • Schumacher or Senna?

    Don't care about horseracing

  • ACC, Big 12, Big East, Big Ten, Pac-12 or SEC?

    since the collegiate hoops scene in Colorado is pathetic I aligned myself with North Carolina early, so give me ACC Hoops, and Mtn West since thats where my boys (CoSt) play.

    Hi Kevin,
    I am a reporter for The Daily Tar Heel, UNC's student newspaper. I am writing an article about UNC basketball fans who did not go to UNC, don't have family who go/went to UNC and don't live in North Carolina, but are still die-hard Carolina fans. I would love to talk with you about why you root for Carolina. If you'd be interested in being a part of my article, shoot me an email at ras4489@gmail.com...if not, sorry for spamming up your board.
    Thanks!
    Rachel
