Colorado State just served up the best college basketball game I’ve seen for a Colorado university. They embodied the best of college athletics! Thank you CSU Rams! 🏀

I’ll admit that over the last few months there have been times when everything has felt so jacked up that it occurs to me that the only thing we can count on as good and true and worthy are dogs🤔

🙏🏼 Prayers up for a truly good and holy man. In a time of retrograde politics and too many power hungry tyrants this kind and decent world leader has stood up for compassion and peace. Thank you Pope Francis🙏🏼

My roommate served for years as a pilot and doctor on USS John F. Kennedy (CV-67). She’s being scrapped in Texas. So long and thanks for 40 years of faithful service!

Honestly the Bills were outcoached and outplayed by the Chiefs. The Bills played scared and that’s a trap.
A thing I really like about Bo Nix is he really doesn’t have any scare in him. Nobody told him he can’t beat the best so he doesn’t believe it🤷🏼♂️ #GoBroncos👊🏼

Well this was the day for some skiing Coloradans that didn’t watch the Broncos. I think I made a bad choice…😬❄️😂

#Broncos getting beat in the trenches but go to half very much still in this game. The FG doink was a shame but we get the ball next. Let’s see if we make a few adjustments and get more aggressive in second half👊🏼

Covering the annual marathon #HigherEd hearings at Colorado’s Joint Budget Committee. JBC Chair Jeff Bridges calls it Colorado “Higheredpalooza” Our state has a diverse array of great colleges ready to serve any student at lower cost than you think! #COPolitics #COLeg

Doing a “dry January” as part of a health reset button for 2025. So far, so good. I recommend this odd drink as a substitute for a cocktail. It is nothing like any ginger beer I’ve had and the apple cider vinegar is jolting at first and later becomes wonderful👍🏼

A quick reminder of where the national experts had the #Broncos ranked back in August. “Oh ye of little faith!”
Congrats #BroncosCountry on this 10-7 playoff season!🧡💙🏈 #BeatTheBills

Don’t care if KC is running on less than full power, it’s still mighty fun to see the new and improved #Broncos beating up the champs in their snappy ‘77 retro gear!
Home team up 21-nil!🏈🧡💙
