Right off the bat...who's ready for some FOOTBALL this weekend? I'll be chillin at my cousin's Superbowl party rooting for the Arizona Cardinals...mostly because I can't wait to be laying poolside in AZ for Spring Break. (since I have no real ties to either team, that's about what it came down to. Fancy schmancy, huh?)
Second...off the bat. Did anyone else have this high of expectations for the Denver Nuggets roster at the beginning of the season? Cause I gotta say that I sure as heck did NOT expect them to be this on their game this season. But they are sitting at the top of their conference in first place with a 29-15 record. Signing Chauncey Billups may have been the best move the Denver Nuggets have ever made. At least this season. Another surprise from the Denver Nuggets roster: Nene. He's four points away from beating Carmelo Anthony's career points total. Craziness. Look for a player profile on the young superstar in the making later this week. And speaking of Carmelo Anthony, while he hasn't quite caught up with his 'normal' season stats, he's definitely gotten back in the game. And possibly going to be picked for the NBA All Star Game.
Third on the list. I don't have a lot to say on the Colorado Avalanche - they're currently sitting on a 23-23-1 record, unimpressive - but I do have something interesting from the league. NHL commissioner Gary Bettman has decided to force players to sit out an extra regular season game if they sat out the All Star Game last weekend after being selected by the fans, in an effort to squash the don't-injure-my-best-players-in-an-inconsequential-game theory some teams take heading into the weekend. Important move by Bettman? I guess. There's been a lot of dwindling interest in the ASG over the past few years, so he's really just trying to push the game by keeping the best players on the ice. Best advice Bettman should take right now? Combine the ASG and the Winter Classic.
Fourth - Josh McDaniels, hottie and former offensive coordinator/QB coach for the New England Patriots, is the new head coach of the Denver Broncos. More on that later this week as well.
Fifth - Colorado Rockies Spring Training starts in less than a month...who is headed to the warm weather??
That's all for now. Now that I'm not working/traveling/holidaying like a crazy person I promise to be a better blogging fiend for all things Denver sports. At least I promise to try.
Over and out.
