UPdaTE

Lots-o-news since my last update.

First and foremost, our Denver Broncos schedule will be ending with the regular season. Sadly, the boys did not make it to the post season this year. Interestingly: Denver Broncos head coach Mike Shanahan was fired after fourteen seasons with the team. While the search is still ongoing, New York Giants defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo seems to be the front runner candidate to fill the open position. It sounds like this will be resolved sooner rather than later.

The Denver Nuggets are still sitting at the top of the division, their most recent win being Saturday night with a close game against the New Orleans Hornets. They had a little bit of a slump in December, but seem to be kicking off January with a bang, winning the last three games they've played. Oh, and Denver Nuggets roster member Carmelo Anthony seems to be finally getting his schtuff back together and actually scoring points again. He still has quite a bit of ground to make up from the beginning of the season, though, so hopefully his head is in the game for good.

On a side note, I'm really excited for Friday night's game against the Detroit Pistons. It's a huge game, not only for the team, but for the fans as well! If you're looking for cheap Nuggets tickets for the game, I found a site that has some really awesome prices. Check 'em out.

The Colorado Avalanche were on a roll in late December, I was super impressed. They even beat last year's Stanley Cup champion team, the Detroit Red Wings, at home at the Pepsi Center. I thought they were serious about winning. But now, they seem to have started up on another losing streak. They've given away their last three games, including tonight's game against the Minnesota Wild. Hopefully they didn't catch the Wild's bad luck (they've been on quite a losing streak lately as well), cause I would really like to see our Colorado Avalanche roster make it to the playoffs this year, and make it PAST the second round. And I think they could really do it if they truly put their hearts into it. And kept on a solid winning streak. C'mon boys!

Thanks for the link.

I was looking to see how cheap the tickets were so I clicked on the Memphis game.

They had tickets for five dollars. Except when I looked a little closer, the game was in Memphis.

Which means Grizzly tickets are only $5. Could you imagine...
