BRADY F'N QUINN???!!!!

OH MY GOD!

The Denver Broncos today traded running back (and fan favorite) Payton Hillis and a couple future mid-round draft picks for - are you ready for this - BRADY F'N QUINN!? 

Gotta hand it Josh McDaniels.  Who could have imagined that he could find an even crappier QB than Kyle Orton to compete for the starting job here in Denver.  He did.  Quinn is an interception waiting to happen.  It's doubtful that Quinn will win the job, though, as lousy as he is.  He's more likely to represent an upgrade over Chris Simms at backup.  At least that way he is relatively harmless.  Still, it's painful to see this organization cast off a winner to bring in a loser. 

At least the female fans will be happy.  The kid is hot.

Helton to retire a Rockie

This is how you do it folks: http://tiny.cc/PVCIG

If more teams could work this out, we wouldn't see players like Jerry Rice, Joe Montana and Chris Drury playing in any other jersey than the one they were born to wear.

Congrats Todd, you've just been immortalized.

GUILTY!

The wheels of justice turn slowly.  This afternoon they finally rolled over Darrent Williams' killer. 

"D-Will", as he was known to Broncos fans, "Daddy", as he was known to his kids, "Son", as he was known to his mother, Williams was slain on South Broadway three years and three months ago in a gangland style shooting that rang in the new year, 2008, with an unsettling "bang". 

Today his killer has a name.  Willie Clark. 

Did Clark act alone - or were there multiple shooters?  Was he a scapegoat?  It doesn't matter now.  History has spoken.  The jury was unanimous.  A very dark chapter in Denver history is closed.  String him up.   His sentence will be handed down on April 30.

Terry Frei's screenplay


If you listened to the latest podcast, we got all up in Terry Frei's grill. Here's the excerpt from his screenplay.

Apparently he can write a better script than a woman because he doesn't have tattoos and funky hair. I'd give him a solid "C" for this bit of hokum. But then again, it's a true story, so how much did he really do? Good luck Terry. Can't wait to see what you wear to the Oscars when this gets made.

Speaking of which, Script Frenzy is in April. Check it out here. This is where you write a 100 page script during the month of April. It's good fun and I'm sure you can bang out something that's better than ol' Terry can in 30 days.

Terry Frei gets a Local Yokeling he will never forget. Aaron watches an NBA game and asks who Sandy Clough is for the umpteenth time.
In the fourth quarter, Alice in Wonderland is mildly discussed. Then Colin tells a touching story about a Juggalo family. The Blindside is boiled down to the story of a white family taking in a lineman sized Arnold Jackson.

Tebow charging $160 for an autograph?



Wow. I mean, I know the guy has got to make a living, but $160 for an autograph? How the fuck does he sleep at night? Oh yeah, on a big pile of money. The harder they beat the bible, the more they have to hide.

Curling one up

In case you missed it, here's my column about curling over at the AV Club Denver: http://tiny.cc/pG9ZV

If all goes well, I'll be taking the April beginner class and will launch my curling career shortly after.

Wolski does what everyone shipped out of Denver does

Isn’t it typical that the second Wojtek Wolski gets traded to the Phoenix Coyotes, he suddenly becomes Sidney Crosby?

 

I know Avs fans are wringing their hand over this but have no fear: Wolski will disappear yet again and Phoenix will be left holding the bag.

 

Any time a player gets traded from Denver,or leaves under a negative cloud, that player will have his best game of his career against Denver. Doesn’t matter the sport, if you left here in shame, circle the date on the calendar when you play your old team: it will be a career game.

 

Eddie Kennison anyone?

 

Wolksi had to go. He wasn’t going to get in gear for the Avs and after this incredibly fortuitous late goal by him the other night, it will be the last you hear from him. I don’t know how Peter Mueller will work out,but if you have a player who refuses to recognize even a shred of his ability, well, he has to go.

 

Good luck Wojtek. Hope you enjoyed your career peak the other night.
