Kroenke Sports has two horses in Championship races

Date:

Since 2022, Kroenke Sports has won three championships in three years. The first was with the L.A. Rams in 2022 (Lombardi Trophy), that same year; the Colorado Avalanche won their third Stanley Cup and just last season the Denver Nuggets won their first ‘chip.’

While the NFL season hasn’t started and the despite the Rams losing the Wild Card Round to the Detroit Lions last season they still managed to end the season second in the NFC West. The Colorado Avalanche and the Denver Nuggets on the other hand, are not only fighting for the top seed in their conferences they both have players who are also atop of the MVP race in both the NBA and the NHL.

The Denver Nuggets have less than 10 games left on the schedule and a half game behind the Oklahoma City Thunder in the Western Conference. The Colorado Avalanche are also less than 10 games from the end of the regular season and despite an unlikely loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets on Monday night, the Avs are still poised to reach the conference leading Dallas Stars.

This week the Nuggets will host the Spurs (results of game not available at the time of this writing) before heading to L.A. to face the L.A. Clippers on Thursday. Denver returns home to face the Atlanta Hawks this weekend.

The Avalanche are on the road this week to face the Minnesota Wild and the Edmonton Oilers in what many are excited to see the number 1 and 2 MVP candidates battle it out in Canada. The Avs return home on Sunday to host the conference leading Dallas Stars at 8 p.m.

The Denver Broncos have added a couple of free agents to the roster with the signing of wide receiver Josh Reynolds and offensive lineman Calvin Throckmorton.

The Draft is less than a month away and most mock drafts have the Broncos trading up for a quarterback in the first round. The Broncos quarterback Jarrett Stidham appears to be Denver’s number one under center until draft day.

In other sports the Colorado Buffs announced on Monday that Lil Wayne will be performing at the CU Buffs spring game. Additionally, the Buffs hired NFL Hall of Famer Warren Sapp as a graduate assistant. Sapp has had some past legal issues that caused his firing from the NFL Network almost 10 years ago but is ready for a new start in Boulder.

Since the start of the MLB season last week the Colorado Rockies have won a single game, which came in game three of their four game series with the Arizona Diamondbacks late last week. The Rockies kicked off a three-game series with the Chicago Cubs on Monday where they lost 5-0. Colorado will wrap up their series with the Cubs on Wednesday before heading up to kick off their home opener against the Tamp Bay Rays. The Rays haven’t fared much better than the Rockies, which give the Rockies a chance to come out on top in that series.
