The 2017 All-Colorado football team, as selected by The Denver Post staff based on statistical analysis, relative value to team success, postseason production and the old-fashioned eye test. QB Zach Cozzolino, Pueblo South, Sr., 6-foot, 190 pounds While throwing for 48 touchdowns, the second most in state history, and leading Class 4A with 3,442 yards, he quarterbacked his team to its first state championship. QB Ty Evans, Palmer Ridge, Jr., 6-3, 190 One of the nation’s most highly recruited quarterbacks in the Class of 2019, Evans led the state with 3,627 yards while also throwing for 42 touchdowns and leading the Bears to their first state title. QB Alex Padilla, Cherry Creek, Jr., 6-2, 190 As the frontman for the Bruins’ dynamic offense, he led Class 5A with 40 touchdowns passing while also throwing for 2,678 yards after seeing a promising sophomore season derailed by a broken thumb. RB Jeremy Hollingsworth, Skyline, Jr., 5-10, 191 Immediately became the Falcons’ most explosive weapon after transferring from Niwot in the offseason, pacing Skyline to its first playoff appearance since 1999 while rushing for 1,913 yards and a Class 4A-best 31 touchdowns. RB Max Borghi, Pomona, Sr., 5-10, 198 The Washington State commitment could create long touchdowns with a burst through the slightest of holes, and he ranked first in Class 5A with 27 rushing scores — not to mention his 1,690 yards rushing and array of big plays in the return game. RB Ben Frenette, Chatfield, Sr., 6-0, 212 The heart and soul of a Chatfield offense that was unstoppable throughout the regular season finished with 1,517 yards and 23 touchdowns by ground, while his leadership helped cement the Chargers among the Class 4A elite. RB Noah Roper, Erie, Jr., 6-0, 195 Paced all of Colorado in rushing yards (2,631) and touchdowns (36) while also playing a primary role in the secondary as his speed and field vision led Erie to its first state title game showing since 2008. WR Billy Pospisil, Pomona, Jr., 5-11, 190 The long-range atomic weapon in the vast Pomona arsenal, Pospisil built off a strong sophomore season by leading Colorado with 1,591 yards receiving this year, posting 18 total touchdowns, including three in the Panthers’ Class 5A title game win.

  • Former Broncos QB Teddy Bridgewater comes out of retirement to sign with Lions
    Denver Post, Thursday - 12/26/2024 - 02:07 PM

    ALLEN PARK, Mich. — The Detroit Lions are bringing back Teddy Bridgewater to give the team a veteran backup quarterback for their playoff run. Coach Dan Campbell said Thursday that the team signed Bridgewater as another backup with second-year player Hendon Hooker behind starter Jared Goff. The Lions have clinched a playoff spot and can earn the top seed in the NFC with two more wins. Bridgewater was the backup in Detroit for the 2023 season when he got on the field for three snaps at the end of a blowout win over Carolina. Bridgewater spent the fall coaching at his high school alma mater, leading Miami Northwestern High to the Florida Class 3A state title.

  • Avalanche Journal: Reasons for hope, concern as team remains hard to evaluate
    Denver Post, Thursday - 12/26/2024 - 12:24 PM

    The Colorado Avalanche rolled into the holiday break with its best run of results, but it remains a hard team to place in the NHL’s hierarchy. Colorado won seven of its final nine games before the break. A bold move to swap out both goaltenders has paid clear and immediate dividends. But, it’s hard to say the Avs have looked like a team that expects to win 16 playoff games in the spring very often this season, even during the recent run.

    Denver Post, Thursday - 12/26/2024 - 11:03 AM

    PHOENIX — Injuries keep loitering in the Nuggets’ locker room. They’re not decimating Denver’s season by any means, not demanding long-term absences from affected players. But they are overstaying their welcome, lingering and quietly looming over most games and unleashing inconvenient warning signs. Like the one Aaron Gordon received from his calf for Christmas.

  • US sex-abuse watchdog fires investigator after learning of his arrest for stealing drug money
    Denver Post, Thursday - 12/26/2024 - 10:10 AM

    By EDDIE PELLS DENVER (AP) — The U. S. Center for SafeSport abruptly fired one of its investigators last month after learning he’d been arrested for stealing money confiscated after a drug bust he was part of during his previous job as a police officer. Jason Krasley left his job with the Allentown Police Department in Pennsylvania in 2021 and was hired by the Denver-based SafeSport center to look into sensitive cases involving sex abuse and harassment. Among Krasley’s cases was one with Sean McDowell, who had filed a report to the center accusing a member of his Seattle-based recreational rugby club of stalking and harassment.

  • Michael Malone happy to continue playing DeAndre Jordan at backup center while Nuggets’ second unit thrives
    Denver Post, Thursday - 12/26/2024 - 07:45 AM

    On a Nuggets road trip packed with memorable moments and sequences, one that won’t be remembered is the start of the fourth quarter in Portland. Trailing 104-87 as Nikola Jokic went to the bench, Denver’s second unit suddenly supplied its best stint of the season — a 16-2 run fueled by reinvigorated defense and steady rebounding. The result rendered it void.
