Published 7:44 pm, Saturday, March 9, 2013 In doing so, new general manager John Dorsey and coach Andy Reid have put their fingerprints on a franchise that has had one winning season in the last six, hasn't won a playoff game since 1993, and hasn't been to the Super Bowl since winning it under Hank Stram in January 1970. "All along, I think from an organizational objective, we said we were going to create a plan, develop a plan, and these just happen to be the first details of the plan," said Dorsey, a longtime Packers executive hired in January to replace the fired Scott Pioli. In the past few years, the Chiefs have reached long-term deals with linebackers Tamba Hali and Derrick Johnson, running back Jamaal Charles, safety Eric Berry and cornerback Brandon Flowers. [...] the speed and conviction with which Dorsey and Reid retained Bowe, who signed a five-year, $56 million contract, and Colquitt, whose five-year, $18.75 million deal makes him the NFL's best-paid punter, sent a message that the Chiefs intend to be serious players in the market.

    Denver Post, Sunday - 09/22/2024 - 07:45 AM

    For evidence that Colorado is the epicenter of American women’s rugby, rewind to last weekend. Trailing on the final play in extra time of the national championship, the Colorado Gray Wolves banded together for a driving maul to win on a dramatic walk-off try for the club’s record fifth title. The score lifted the Gray Wolves to a 31-27 victory over the Berkeley All Blues to capture the Legacy Cup in North Carolina, where the sport bridged the gap between the long-running Women’s Premier League (an amateur, pay-to-pay circuit) and forthcoming Women’s Elite Rugby, the first professional women’s rugby league in the U.
