Moser, Lombardi and Kane

0:00 - After trading Sam Girard, the Avs have a good $8.7 million in cap space to play around with. Knowing Chris MacFarland and how much he enjoys shuffling the deck, we don't think he's done. The NHL trade deadline is a little over a week away. Things could get interesting.13:49 - Tonight, the Avalanche are back in action for the first time in almost a month. The Nuggets have a game tonight too, which means it's time for a Double Keys to the Game aka a Double Keys-A-Roo.After that, former Nuggets GM Calvin Booth went on Kevin O'Connor's podcast and finally shared his side of the story. His side of the infamous Malone/Booth fallout that resulted in them both getting fired last year 3 games before the playoffs. His perspective is...interesting, to say the least.32:27 - Brett Kane's alma mater almost fell through the center of the earth, and now Kaner has a new nickname. 

0:00 - After a (much deserved) 3-week hiatus, Jared Bednar joined us again today! We asked him about the Sam Girard trade, the Olympic break, and the thrilling Gold Medal Match between USA and Canada that featured like half of his Avalanche roster (at least that's what it felt like). 19:57 - Broncos OC Davis Webb will now call the plays on offense. What changes can he/should he make? What do we want to see him try? It's not like he's stepping into a dumpster fire. He has an AFC Championship-caliber team to work with and play around with.34:07 - Oh, by the way...we don't need to use so called "robot umps" to challenge balls and strikes that are a millimeter outside of the strike zone. Oh, by the way...a youth hockey game in Minnesota went to 12 overtimes and STILL wasn't finished.

0:00 - Yesterday at the NFL Combine, Sean Payton announced that Broncos Offensive Coordinator Davis Webb will be calling plays next year. Wow...it finally happened! Good for Davis. Sean's presser felt very open and honest. A tiny bit of Snarky Sean escaped when he was asked about Bo Nix and Predisposed AnkleGate 2K26 (where were you?), but aside from that, it felt like a very natural conversation about this changing of the guard.16:01 - Happy Trails, Sammy G! La Tornade is now touching down in Pittsburgh, PA with the Penguins. Two things can be true. Thing one: Brett's been the biggest defender of Sammy G there is. Poor guy has caught TONS of unnecessary arrows over the years, and he's made a big impact on his team. Thing two: it was time to move on. This trade will be better for everyone involved in the long run. 33:27 - Kaner doesn't think the Avs are done wheeling and dealing yet. Trading Sammy G freed up a good chunk of cap space, so he thinks other moves are on the horizon. After that, Broncos fans are over the moon about Davis Webb taking over offensive playcalling! They're acting like the Broncos offense will suddenly turn into that prolific 2013 offense overnight. It's good that everyone has complete faith! But maybe ease off the gas a bit. We have no idea how Davis Webb truly will look as a playcaller. 

0:00 - Some people have said losing in the gold medal game will make Nate, Cale, and Toews even hungrier to bring Lord Stanley back to Denver. Really? Is that really the case? Do Nate & Cale want to win the Cup more now because they didn't win a gold medal?13:10 - How do the Avs fix their Power Play? Is it a personnel issue? Or are they just too deep inside their own heads? Also, let's dig up the audio of our old friend Nick Tarnasky beating the hell out of a drunk idiot on the golf course. BANG! BANG! BANG!31:20 - Brett happened upon an old video of a Venezuelan baseball brawl. If it happened in an MLB game, people would probably be arrested for assault. 

0:00 - Do Canada hockey fans understand how sports hate and sports trash talk work? Because those hosers to the North have been pretty soft on social media these last few days. 14:13 - The Nuggets have a turnover issue. That much is clear. But the issue isn't how often they're turning the ball over. It's about WHEN they're turning it over.27:39 - Oh, by the way...Lindsey Vonn came THIS close to getting her leg amputated. The doctor saved her leg. Oh, by the way, Jusuf Nukic is having a season-ending procedure on his...nose? Oh, by the way, the field is set for the NCAA Rifle Championship tournament coming up next month. And the competing teams are exactly who you'd expect. 

0:00 - Moser decides to dig up/re-hash his long standing beef with Christian Bale. Don't shatter his dreams!After that...the Avalanche are back in action tomorrow night on the road in SLC vs the Mammoth. Which players from the Olympics will be back on the ice for Colorado? Will any guys get some rest before the final push to the playoffs? What can we expect from this back half of the season?14:47 - Think about how far the Broncos have come in such a short amount of time. Their turnaround has been meteoric. Somehow, the Russell Wilson/Nathaniel Hackett era feels like a lifetime ago. And yet, there are still more tweaks to the roster that need to be made. 36:35 - Yesterday, Zac Veen hit a walkoff MOONSHOT home run for the Rockies in spring training. And he looks HUGE. He's more than 40 lbs heavier than he was last season. Hey man, if that's what it takes to hit dingers, then we're totally here for Jacked Veen.

0:00 - People talk about Olympic hockey "growing the game." Is that really the case? Will fans who enjoyed Olympic hockey now pick an NHL team and be fans for life? How effective is that supposed pipeline?13:47 - The Nuggets had better figure out why they can't close out games. Their schedule only gets tougher from here on out. It won't be an easy stroll into the playoffs. Quite the opposite.Also, now that the winter games are over, will you miss them? How much Olympics did you watch in the past few weeks? Did you enjoy this year's games overall?32:59 - In honor of Nathan MacKinnon's consolation prize plushie (Tina the Stote) that he received with his silver medal, let's go down the rabbit hole of every official Olympics mascot in history in today's Fact Checker.

0:00 - I'm sorry, Podcast listeners. These goal/Merica montages don't sound the same without Free Bird in the background. Stupid copyright rules. I guess you'll have to envision the freedom in your head for the full experience.Anyway, USA beat Canada yesterday in hockey to wrap up the Olympics on a high note. Now look...a silver medal is nothing to sneeze at! That's an amazing accomplishment. But Team Canada looked incredibly crushed and depressed as they received their medals. And what made it worse...they all received a plushie doll of the Olympics mascot too. Nathan MacKinnon had to use every ounce of self control in his system to not rip the head off that damn thing. Moser said that's unacceptable. You canNOT give a grown man a stuffed animal as a consolation prize.17:38 - The Avalanche and the Nuggets are facing similar problems right now. What used to be their greatest strength is now their biggest weakness. What's the fix?30:08 - Oh, by the way...the Cowboys extended Javonte Williams. Is it the right value? Oh, by the way...the Canadian curling cheater spoke up about the controversy. Oh, by the way...the Avs are getting a minor league team in New Mexico!

0:00 - USA MEN'S HOCKEY WON AN OLYMPIC GOLD MEDAL FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE 1980! And, they defeated our neighbors to the north to secure the gold. What a moment. What a game. Of course, Jack Hughes was the hero of the game with that SNIPE past Binnington in OT. But how about Connor Hellebuyucky? The guy who was a sieve vs the Avalanche in the playoffs is now an Olympics legend. 21:22 - The Nuggets collapsed vs. a depleted Golden State Warriors team yesterday and couldn't finish down the stretch. What kind of bizarro world are we in now? This Nuggets squad used to be KILLERS in the clutch. The 4th quarter was when they played their best! Now, it's their worst quarter. Finishing games makes the difference in the playoffs. Period. They better figure this out soon.35:42 - Canada lost to USA despite being the better team yesterday. They were better on paper AND better on the ice! That's how it goes sometimes. The hockey gods giveth, and the hockey gods taketh away. 

0:00 - Let's rehash a debate from a couple years ago: is it acceptable to hork down BBQ ribs at 7:45am like one Marc Moser?Somehow, the discussion turned into a discussion about sports movies with animals?14:30 - Norway is stacking up Winter Olympics Gold Medals faster than anyone else. They tend to do that. How does such a tiny country at the tippy top of the globe produce so many Olympic winners?32:29 - It's our favorite part of the week DRUNK TAKES! We take clips from throughout the week, slow em down to half speed and it makes us sound like we're hammered. 

0:00 - It's time for a /ML&K tradition: Brett explains why you should be optimistic about the Rockies and their upcoming season. Except this time, he's tempering his enthusiasm. There's still a long road ahead, but it seems like the Rockies might actually maybe possibly potentially make some slight changes that set them in the right direction.17:16 - Should we be concerned about the Nuggets right now? Are there cracks starting to form in this (alleged) championship roster?30:52 - Oh, by the way...Danika Mason is an Australian sports reporter, and she's in Milan to cover the Olympics. She did a live hit on Australian TV while absolutely hammered, and it's fantastic.

0:00 - The Nuggets should've beaten the Clippers last night in LA. But they played VERY sloppy down the stretch and lost the game on a missed free throw. How much should we make of this loss? Are we concerned? Or was this some rust after the All-Star break?16:51 - ALEXA, PLAY FREE BIRD BABY! USA Women's Hockey battled back from a 2-1 deficit, forced OT, then beat Canada to win the Gold. A golden goal for the gold. Take THAT ya hosers. That game was absolutely electric start to finish. Now we just need the men to follow suit.After that, Adam Silver announced some new measures the league will take to prevent teams from tanking. Are any of the ideas actually viable? 37:27 - Big picture, will the NBA ever be able to actually get rid of tanking? Or is that just part of the cost of doing business?

0:00 - Our ESPN Broncos Insider Jeff Legwold joins us every Thursday! What does Leggy think about all these people including Riley Moss in their hypothetical mock trades? Leggy is a proud Illinois Illini. So what does he think about his Bears leaving for greener pastures in Indiana?15:46 - Giannis keeps being coy about his future in Milwaukee. He's constantly talking out of both sides of his mouth. Here's the latest edition. The Greek Freak has officially pissed off Brett. He might be a candidate for the List.30:55 - Are you locked into speed skating? Or are you done with it like Moser?Also, Fact Checker was pretty rough today. Brett attempted to use a metaphor about how much career Jokic has left, and it wasn't well received by his co-hosts.

0:00 - You know how much Sean Payton loves the hypotheticals! Riley Moss' name keeps popping up in all these hypothetical trades involving the Broncos. Do we really want to get rid of him that badly? Why is everyone so eager to ship him out of town?16:09 - As we get deeper into Olympic hockey, are you rooting for the USA Men's team or Canada? You'd root for USA for obvious reasons (shoutout 'Merica), but so many Avs players are on team Canada? How is this situation any different from USA men's basketball vs Serbia in the 2024 Summer Olympics? 31:33 - Oh, by the way...Happy 31st Birthday, Nikola Jokic! How much longer will he dominate the NBA? How mnay more years does he have left? Oh, by the way...did you see the Chicago Bears are most likely building their new stadium in Indiana?

0:00 -  It went down to OT in each game, but USA & Canada's men's hockey squads both advanced to the semis! Olympic hockey has been nothing short of electric.Even though a bunch of Avs play for Team Canada, Brett and Vic were secretly kinda rooting for them to lose to Czechia. Why is that?16:44 - As great as those hockey games were yesterday, it's a shame they came down to 3-on-3 OT. Keep it 5-on-5 until someone wins. Do it just like the NHL playoffs. Rink scheduling issues be damned!31:49 - We're at the "halfway point" of the NBA season (even though it's not halfway - we're farther than that, but the All-Star break feels like halfway. You know what we mean). So what are reasonable expectations for the Nuggets in the last "half" of the season?

0:00 - Vic, Mose, and Kane LOVE Winter Olympic Hockey, skiing...but curling? The sledding? Not super crazy about 'em.11:25 - Nuggets legend Dan Issel joins the program to reflect on the life of Doug Moe, who passed away on Tuesday.27:32 - Nuggets legend Bill Hanzlik ALSO joins the program to talk Doug Moe, share stories, and celebrate the life of the legendary Nuggets head coach.

0:00 - Vic, Mose, and Kane share a Doug Moe story from the Altitude Sports documentary covering his life and career. The gang also reacts to MLBPA executive Tony Clark resigning, and what that could mean for a potential MLB work stoppage.12:54 - Broncos got some cap space and Tyreek Hill just got released by the Dolphins. Is that a player you take a look at to try and unlock the Broncos offense. Plus, Carmelo Anthony seemed pretty keen on doing a little homecoming with Denver and the Nuggets. Is that worth welcoming back with open arms?31:41 - Another rousing round of "Oh, By The Way..."

0:00 - Vic, Mose, and Kane share their thoughts and memories of legendary Nuggets head coach Doug Moe, who passed away on Tuesday.14:19 - Brand spankin' new Rapids head coach Matt Wells joins the program to talk the season opener, going from the Prem to MLS, and more!33:45 - Another NBA All-Star Weekend come and gone. The new format got some positive reviews, but is it actually Good? Vic, Mose, and Kane aren't quite convinced yet.

0:00 - Brock Nelson had himself a DAY for Team USA yesterday! He scored 2 goals en route of a 5-1 drubbing of Latvia. You love to see it. Can we fast forward to USA vs Canada for the goal already? And more importantly, will anyone be able to stop team Canada?After that, former CU TE and 2x Super Bowl champion Christian Fauria ripped Deion Sanders on Zach Gelb's podcast. He said Deion can't coach, doesn't honor the school's traditions, and needs to string together wins to go with the eyeballs on the program and relevancy. Vic said some of his comments are spot on, but he missed the mark in a few places.14:28 - The Radio Voice of YOUR DENVER NUGGETS Jason "Koz" Kosmicki woke up way to early to chat with us this morning. How is he feeling about this squad at the All-Star Break? 32:49 - It's our favorite part of the week DRUNK TAKES! We take clips from throughout the week, slow em down to half speed and it makes us sound like we're hammered.

0:00 - Broncos Ownership held a meeting yesterday at La Alma Rec Center. They let fans, journalists, and concerned citizens ask them any/every question about the new stadium and how the plan to develop/re-develop Burnham Yard and the neighborhood surrounding the stadium. DMac was in attendance, so he joined us in studio to tell us what he learned at the Broncos HOA meeting.17:14 - At the Broncos HOA meeting, people were allowed to write their concerns/comments/suggestions on Post-It notes and stick them on a specific wall for all to see! What are some of our favorite Post-Its from the Broncos Country Wall? Somehow, that turned into a fiery debate between DMac and Vic about...bike lanes?32:31 - Oh, by the way...Love him or hate him, you have to appreciate LeBron James' longevity. He still looks like he's 28 years old out there, not 41. Oh, by the way...did you see the NBA want to expand again? Oh, by the way...there's DEFINITELY another MLB lockout coming sooner rather than later.

0:00 - Brock Nelson buried Latvia yesterday in Olympic hockey. He scored 2 goals, and had another one called off due to a penalty! Hey, rest of the world: get ready to learn Free Bird, buddy. USA hockey is comin (both men's and women's!)14:53 - According to Kaner, Bo Nix is Russell Wilson...and that's not actually a bad thing.35:20 - Joe Judge, Ole Miss QB Coach, testified at Trinidad Chambliss' NCAA hearing and had an...interesting take on parenthood that arose during the proceedings. 

0:00 - Is our Broncos Insider Jeff Legwold stoked about Australian punters? What's the top priority for the Broncos in the offseason? Are the Broncos Super Bowl or Bust right now?15:21 - Gabriel Landeskog hit the ice for the first time in 5 weeks yesterday...with Team Sweden. And that's fine! It's okay that he returned from injury to represent his country instead of making his return with the Avs! This is a non-story. Don't overthink it.33:01 - The Nuggets needed the All-Star Break desperately. Rest up, boys. Because after the break, the schedule doesn't get any easier. Far from it. The first 6 games after the break are TOUGH.

0:00 - How many CU players will be at the NFL Combine this year? Take a second...think of a guess...think of a number...here's the answer: zero. Not a single CU football player was invited to the combine. For a head coach who touts his ability to find Louis and Gucci in the portal, the data would suggest otherwise. Again, this begs the question: heading into Year 4 at CU, what are reasonable expectations for Neion Deion and his $10 mil/year salary?15:58 - The Avalanche and Nuggets are both squarely in championship or bust windows. But what about the Broncos? If they don't reach the AFC Championship again next year, is it a disappointment? Or would you be okay with that because they "overperformed" this year?26:34 - Oh, by the way...both CU and K-State Men's Basketball got blown out of the water by Texas Tech and Cincinnati (respectively). Both head coaches were frustrated with their team after the game. Understandably so. Also, by the way, they love punting in Australia ESPECIALLY in the Super Bowl.

0:00 - It shouldn't have been a nailbiter, but it was. Whatever. A win is a win. The Nuggets head into the All-Star Break with a dub, as it should be.14:30 - Some people on our radio station who shall remain nameless (but their show name is an acronym for a college degree) said it was weird that Landeskog made his return from injury in the Olympics. He really couldn't play for the Avs before the break? And he's magically healthy to play for Sweden now? Why wouldn't he return after the Olympics?Brett explains why this logic is flawed, and why you should have no problem with Landy's return to the ice representing his country. 34:02 - The NBA overhauled the All-Star Game format in an attempt to make it competitive. Will it work? Kevin Durant says that's up to the international players.

0:00 - Vic chatted one-on-one with Danilo Gallinari since he'll be honored at the game tonight. In that conversation, he asked Gallo a question that you NEVER ask another Italian man. Vic embarrassed the family.The Nuggets are hosting the Memphis Grizzlies tonight in the last game before the All-Star Break. What are the Keys to a Nuggets victory?12:33 - Vic's old radio partner once upon a time Kyle Keefe joined the show today to talk about everything from Olympics hockey to cartoon sports broadcasts...since he's doing one later this month.34:15 - With all the aprons and luxury/repeater taxes, it will be tough for the Nuggets to keep Peyton Watson on the roster next year. Aprons be damned. Do whatever you have to do to keep him in Denver.

0:00 - All sports leagues have tried to curb "tanking." If you ask the commissioner of any major sports league, they'll tell you tanking is not a thing! We have measures in place to prevent that. Well if that's the case, how do you explain what the Utah Jazz are doing right now?14:50 - Kris Bryant is still going through a debilitating back injury. Never mind playing baseball. He's just trying to return to a normal quality of life. Shockingly, he'll start the season on the 60-day IL, meaning he'll miss the first 57 games of the Rockies season AT LEAST. What on Earth are the Rockies supposed to do with this guy? He may never set foot on a baseball diamond again, and the Rockies owe him gobs of money for the next few years.That sent us down a rabbit hole of the oldest athletes of all time.34:52 - Oh, by the way...did you see that Norwegian Skiier sprinting uphill on SKIS? At a sub-6 minute mile pace???

0:00 - The Nuggets are playing the struggling Grizzlies tonight at Ball Arena in their last game before the All-Star Break. The goal for the Nuggets is simple. Beat a bad team on your home court, go into the break on a high note, come back healthy and ready to go. Also, Christian Braun spoke to PHD yesterday and gave more information about his injury and recovery process.16:16 - Men's Olympic Hockey prelims start this morning! We won't see US and Canada till tomorrow, but both Finland and Sweden will play today. And it looks like Gabe Landeskog will return to the ice for the first time since his injury.35:02 - Brett has a wish list for the Broncos this offseason. Who does he want to see in oreange and blue? Do we agree? Are his wishes realistic?

The 2025 NFL Season is in the books! What did Adam Schefter think of Super Bowl 60? Which players might be shuffled around in the offseason? Is the league contemplating any changes? Let's pick Schefty's brain in his last weekly appearance for a while. 

0:00 - The 2025 NFL Season is in the books! What did Adam Schefter think of Super Bowl 60? Which players might be shuffled around in the offseason? Is the league contemplating any changes? Let's pick Schefty's brain in his last weekly appearance for a while. 19:38 - Why does this Nuggets team continually struggle to closeout games? Last night was yes another perfect example. 32:47 - A Norwegian Skiier won an Olympic bronze medal...then immediately admitted that he cheated on the love of his life. Weird time to admit that, my dude.

0:00 - The NFL wants to expand the window for future picks you can include in a trade. Right now, you can include draft picks that are 3 years in the future. But in the NBA, you can go way farther than that. Hunter Tyson was just traded for a 2032 pick! Brett thinks this is getting out of hand. We're really gonna start shuffling picks from 2050? Everyone settle down.Also, the NBA wants to expand to Seattle and Vegas, unsurprisingly.11:09 - Are you nervous about your Avalanche star players competing in the Olympics? What happens if Nathan MacKinnon or Cale Makar gets hurt competing in the Olympics? Does that feel "worse" than if one of them gets hurt playing in an NHL game?29:56 - Oh, by the way...we have a new daily segment called Oh, By the Way! Every day at 8:45, we're ping-ponging around every sports (or non-sports) story that pops into our heads!

0:00 - The Nuggets collapsed late in the game last night and lost to the new-look James Harden Cavaliers. Yet ANOTHER home loss! What's going on with this squad?16:56 - Seconds after the Super Bowl wrapped up, the internet was flooded with WAY TOO EARLY PREDICTIONS FOR NEXT SEASON, BABY! Who's slated to win Super Bowl 61? How about the AFC West? Will the Broncos hang onto their crown?36:04 - The NBA's Western Conference is STACKED. We're approaching the home stretch, and it'll be a photo finish. The 2 seed and the 7 seed are only separated by 5 wins. Realistically, where will the Nuggets land? What's feasible?

0:00 - Chad Brown played for both the Seahawks and the Patriots during his long NFL career. What did he think of yesterday's snoozefest game?15:53 - Multiple players on the Seahawks championship roster were the direct result of the Russell Wilson trade. Does that mean George Paton should receive a ring?Also, Lindsay Vonn crashed again over the weekend and had to be airlifted out. She caught one of the slalom flags with her arm and it JUST tweaked her enough to throw off her balance. It was tough to watch. 33:29 - Who is Sam Darnold? How do we properly evaluate him? It's tough to evaluate QBs (and athletes in any sport for that matter) in a vacuum. You have to consider the pieces SURROUNDING that player on both sides of the ball.

0:00 - Call it sour grapes or whatever, but how great was it to see the Patriots lose yesterday? Boston fans are miserable and we're here for it. Their MVP-candidate Golden Boy QB put together a lackluster performance in the biggest game of his life. How da ya like them apples, Dave Portnoy?12:07 - Why would it be shameful if Vic died his hair? If he went full Vicky Martin, why is that embarrassing?Also, Luge is awesome but it makes no sense to us. How does it work? Does being fat give you an advantage because you slide faster? Or is it better to be skinny and aerodynamic?28:36 - We're debuting a new daily segment called "Oh, By The Way..."

0:00 - The Seahawks won Super Bowl 60. The Lombardi Trophy is headed back to Seattle. Man, that was a boring Super Bowl. It picked up a bit in garbage time, but whatever. The question we'll ask from now until the end of time: How would the Broncos have looked in that game against the Seahawks Defense with a healthy Bo Nix and JK Dobbins?15:24 - It was the most controversial Super Bowl halftime show of all controversial Super Bowl halftime shows! Gasp! What did you think of Bad Bunny yesterday?32:03 - Jamal Murray has been named to the NBA's 3-Point Contest. Good for him! He'll probably hit the gym immediately and start putting up shots to get ready for it. That's the type of person he is. He's a natural competitor. It's nice to see Jamal finally getting his flowers.

0:00 - Vic had the chance to talk to Notre Dame RB Jeremiyah Love at Radio Row yesterday. And DMac was poo-pooing the idea of drafting him, because you can find guys like that anywhere. Brett & Vic think that's ridiculous. The Broncos would never draft him BUT we'd love it if they did. 11:10 - Kevin Demoff wears many hats. So many that we don't know how to introduce him? He's a big wig with KSE and an even bigger wig with the LA Rams. However you wanna describe him, he sat down with us at Radio Row and described the sports rollercoaster he's been on the past few months with the Avalanche, Nuggets, Rams, Arsenal, you name it.33:11 - It's our favorite part of the week DRUNK TAKES! We take clips from throughout the week, slow em down to half speed and it makes us sound like we're hammered. 

0:00 - Football isn't the only "game of inches" now. Evidently, Olympic ski jumpers are (supposedly) injecting their little dighys with Hyaluronic acid in order to gain a slight competitive edge. 11:18 - Greg Cosell is the nephew of Howard Cosell, and he's also a Senior Producer at NFL Films. He's seen a lot of football in his day. Vic caught up with him at Super Bowl Radio Row and asked him about what he's seen from Bo Nix so far in his young career.Also, the Nuggets traded Hunter Tyson to Brooklyn. They got a future draft pick in return, but it was mostly to dump his salary and free up a roster spot. So they'll be able to add one more player (not from the trade market) and that's it.31:19 - The NFL HOF inductions were announced last night. Brett misses the guy with the epic voice who used to tell players that they got inducted. Things haven't been the same since he stepped down.

0:00 - The only move the Nuggets made yesterday was to trade Hunter Tyson, essentially for a salary dump and an open roster spot. They also converted Spencer Jones' two-way contract to a regular contract to keep him here. So they can add one more player and that's it. What need should they try to fill?The NFL Honors Awards were last night, and the Broncos didn't win anything. We thought Sean Payton MIGHT have a shot at Coach of the Year, but Mike Vrabel taking the Patriots to the Super Bowl in his first season was tough to beat. Also, Matt Stafford got MVP...by ONE vote. ONE single vote. Someone cast their vote for Justin Herbert and he's getting killed online for it.22:36 - We used to love him, and now...we're officially done with him. The Greek Freak needs to shut his trap. He's approaching being on The List.34:11 - It's hard to believe Sam Darnold's turnaround. He was left for dead in New York, left for dead in Carolina, revived his career with the Vikings who still cut him, and now he's in the Super Bowl in his first year with Seattle. Unbelievable. Meanwhile, look at the Vikings right now. They're in freefall. Just listen to what Justin Jefferson had to say (or didn't say) about his QB. 

0:00 - It's still football season for a few more days. But for the Broncos, the offseason is already in swing. What moves do they need to make? What are their biggest needs and priorities? Who should they draft? What about free agency? Let's see what's on Leggy's offseason to-do list.19:45 - Take a random sample of NHL and NBA players. Would they rather win an NHL/NBA Championship or a gold medal? Which means more?33:40 - After spending a few days at Super Bowl Media Week, Vic has reached the conclusion that there are too many influencers. There's no way every single outlet here deserved a credential. No way. 

0:00 - The NBA trade deadline is hours away, and we've already seen some wild trades so far! Unfortunately, one player who Vic really wanted the Nuggets to acquire has gone to Minnesota. Who else is out there? Also, why does Washington want Anthony Davis?12:23 - All signs point to Maxx Crosby leaving the Raiders. He'd never end up in Denver. Zero percent chance to the Raiders letting him go elsewhere in the AFC West. But, let's play pretend. Would you take him here?Also, if the Nuggets don't make any trades before the deadline, are we okay with it? Is this roster, as currently constructed, a championship roster?34:29 - Broncos fans know about "The Fumble." The name speaks for itself and lives forever in Broncos and NFL playoff lore. At Super Bowl Media Week, Vic had the chance to meet the man behind the iconic play. The man who ruined Earnest Byner's life forever (unintentionally). A true Broncos legend. Jeremiah Castille.

0:00 - The Avalanche beat the Sharks last night and headed into the break on a high note! Meanwhile, the Nuggets lost to the Knicks in 2OT at the Garden. Peyton Watson tweaked his hamstring (still being evaluated), and Spencer Jones left with a concussion. Plus, Jokic looked like he was limping at some point. My goodness. The double diparoo giveth. And the double diparoo taketh away.16:20 - Vic's at Radio Row in San Francisco for the Super Bowl. And yet, he's having trouble getting excited about the matchup. There's no buzz around it, or at least that's how it seems. Are we crazy? Does anyone else feel this way?32:02 - Vic caught up with Ryan Leaf yesterday. He asked him about Bo Nix's success and how his season came to an unfortunate screeching hault. 

0:00 - It's tough to get into a rhythm right now, since Nuggets players are entering and exiting the lineup left an right. Joker and CB are finally back, but they're still shaking off the rust. Adelman is changing things on the fly and doing the best he can with who he has.14:27 - There's a Double Diparoo tonight, which necessitates a Double Keys-A-Roo! What are the keys to a Nuggets victory over the Knickerbockers, and an Avs victory over the Sharks?After that, Vic is in SF at Media Row and he met our hero. Our idol. Our friend(?) Mel Owens. The Golden Bachelor. Vic asked Mel if Moser would ever have a chance of becoming the Golden Bachelor. And let's just say...Mel is on Moser's "List" now. 31:32 - The NBA All-Star break is (mercifully) about 2 weeks away. What are our biggest concerns with the Nuggets right now?

0:00 - The Avalanche have ONE last game before the NHL's Olympic Break. How's Avs Head Coach Jared Bednar feeling about his squad as they head into some much-needed time off?19:26 - Garett Bolles was this year's recipient of the NFLPA's Alan Page Community Award for the service that he and his foundation do off the field. Vic caught up with him after he received the award, and asked him about the AFC Championship and how to fix the Broncos run game. If the OL is so highly graded, why does the run game continue to struggle?34:31 - Who knows more about being a Broncos RB than Terrell Davis? Vic chatted with him on Media Row and asked why Denver still can't run the rock consistently.

0:00 - Christian Braun came back to the lineup, but the Nuggets lost to the Pistons in Detriot. It's tough to find any consistency from the Nuggets because the lineup is constantly changing. Guys are getting healthy, other guys are getting hurt, etc. Coach Adelman is throwing stuff at the wall to see what sticks. 19:42 - Of all the celebrities Vic's met at Radio Row, he met the greatest of all of them last night. He ran into none other than Mel Owens. The Golden Bachelor. Vic asked him if our very own (happily married, by the way) Marc Moser could ever become a Golden Bachelor himself.36:22 - Supposedly, Davis Webb was a candidate for a bunch of different OC jobs around the league. He received some offers to coach elsewhere. So, why did he stay with Denver?

0:00 - Some texters accused us of making excuses for the Avs! We never faily criticize the players or the coaches. We're too soft. Is that the case? Are we not being hard enough on the Avs who are clearly sputtering right now? Or are they elsewhere mentally and in desperate need of the Olympic break?11:15 - Nuggets are in Detriot taking on the Pistons. What are the Keys to a Nugs victory?Which winter sports are we keeping? Which ones are we getting rid of? It's time for our time-honored Olympics tradition where Moser evaluates every sport one at a time. 33:32 - Vic is live at Radio Row for the Super Bowl Media Week, and he ended up sharing a table with some dude from Wichita. Does he have anything good to say? Let's put him on the mic. Why not?

0:00 - Ugh...losing to the Red Wings sucks. Getting shut out by them AT HOME is even worse. What went wrong last night? The Avs have been wishy washy recently, to say the least.12:51 - Yesterday, the news broke that Davis Webb is the new Broncos Offensive Coordinator. We haven't heard yet if he'll be calling plays. Should he? Would Sean Payton REALLY be willing and able to reliquish that? And if Davis Webb won't be calling plays, then why did he stick around?33:09 - Unsurprisingly, the NFL is trying to expand its slate of NFL games. Word on the street is - they want to make every team play 1 international game per yer. Broncos might be headed back to Mexico City since that falls under their "territorial rights."

0:00 - What a gross game by the Avs. They lost to Detriot 2-0 AT HOME. In Ball Arena. Sheesh. Get to the break already. These boys are completely and totally checked out.14:34 - Davis Webb has officially been promoted to Broncos Offensive Coordinator. But the announcement yesterday didn't include anything about the playcalling...Straw Poll: Do you want Sean Payton calling plays next year? Yes or No?36:41 - The NBA Trade Deadline is a few days away. What trades do you want to see the Nuggets make? Who cares?? Shoot for the moon! The Luka trade proved that anything is possible. Nothing is too ridiculous or too long of a shot. 

Erik Johnson has had ENOUGH of the spray tan accusations that Nathan MacKinnon started! He asked to join our show and put the rumors to bed once and for all. Since we had him on the line anyway, we decided to ask him some actual hockey questions about the Avalanche as well. God forbid we talk sports on this show!

Schefty reported there was an earthquake in SF, then hopped on our show. He breaks Geological news, then breaks NFL news. What doesn't this guy do?

0:00 - Schefty reported there was an earthquake in SF, then hopped on our show. He breaks Geological news, then breaks NFL news. What doesn't this guy do?14:21 - Aside from the possibility of Jokic winning MVP, which is more likely: Peyton Watson wins Most Improved Player, Tim Hardaway Jr wins 6th man of the year, or David Adelman is Coach of the Year?32:38 - This weekend, a boxer got punched so hard that his fake hair fell off. Yikes. And somehow, he won the fight by decision. Nope! If your toupee falls off mid-fight, that's an automatic L in our book. 

0:00 - Erik Johnson has had ENOUGH of the spray tan accusations! He asked to join our show and put the rumors to bed once and for all. Since we had him on the line anyway, we decided to ask him some actual hockey questions about the Avalanche as well. God forbid we talk sports on this show!14:03 - In last night's Nuggets vs Thunder game, Jaylen Williams wrapped up Jokic, square danced with him, twerked with him, and the refs didn't call a foul. This is Jokic's curse. The Thunder will always push the foul boundaries and get a beneficial whistle, so the Nuggets will have to figure out how to win in spite of it.33:38 - Happy Groundhog Day and Moser's birthday! We're celebrating by taking a show trip to Gobbler's Knob. Wait what?

0:00 - The Nuggets faced OKC for the first time this season, and lost 121-111 at Ball Arena. We can cry about the whistles all we want, and we probably will. But it doesn't change the fact that OKC is still the gold standard in the West. They're still the man, and to be the man ya gotta beat the man. Figure out how to beat them.16:19 - Nathan MacKinnon accused Erik Johnson on rocking a spray tan on Saturday during the Avs @ Red Wings broadcast. EJ is one of the only guys who can get Mack to act like a normal human instead of the stone cold hockey machine he usually is.35:30 - There have been a multiple goalie fights this season! What's in the water? We didn't have any goalie fights for years, and now there are multiple in the same season? Also, who don't goalies have to serve penalty minutes? Get in the box, buddy. Your team either plays with an empty net for 2 min, or the backup comes in for 2 min.
