Around the AFC Best 1-2 game ever: Lamar Jackson against Patrick Mahomes is always must-see TV. The fact that each team is 1-2 hardly slows down the buzz around this matchup, but it comes with an interesting wrinkle: Somebody’s going to be 1-3. It’s the first time in NFL history that multiple-time MVPs have squared off in a game where each team has a losing record. Nonetheless, this should be a terrific game. Colts still rolling: Who could have seen this coming? Daniel Jones has the Indianapolis offense humming and off to a 3-0 start. Running back Jonathan Taylor, meanwhile,…

You can’t give lipstick service to a pig. Rockies CEO Dick Monfort, whose family fortune was built on meatpacking, should know that better than anybody. If it were up to Team Grading The Week (GTW), the Monforts would purge anything and everyone from the baseball side of the worst MLB team in Denver history and the second-worst National League team of the modern era. Do the Monforts feel shame? Do they feel … anything at all at this point? We’re about to find out. Because The Walker Era is upon us. And for Rockies fans who have might as well…

SAN FRANCISCO — It was a sad sight to a sad ending in a sad season. German Marquez, the Rockies’ proud right-hander, the longest-tendured member of the team, walked slowly off the mound in the fifth inning Friday night at Oracle Park. The crowd cheered wildly, but not because of anything Marquez had done. Giants third baseman Matt Chapman had just ripped off the 1,000th hit of his career. Marquez did not pitch well in what was almost certainly his final game in Rockies purple. When he departed, the Giants led 5-3. The Giants ultimately prevailed, winning 6-3 and sending…

It was about nine months ago that the Colorado Buffaloes arrived at the Alamodome with a star-studded roster and walked out with a humbling loss. On Saturday night, the Buffaloes will face BYU for the first time since that game on Dec. 28. This week’s game has been billed as a rematch of the Alamo Bowl, but head coach Deion Sanders and the Buffaloes have much bigger concerns than exacting revenge on the 25th-ranked Cougars. It’s been a bumpy start to the season for the Buffaloes, who are already 0-1 in the Big 12 and know they can’t afford an…

ATLANTA (AP) — Atlanta’s airport has forfeited at least $37.5 million because city leaders have refused to disavow diversity, equity and inclusion programs as mandated by President Donald Trump’s administration. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, the world’s busiest airport by passenger traffic, declined on July 29 to agree to terms set out by the Federal Aviation Administration. Those terms certify that the airport doesn’t “operate any programs promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives that violate any applicable Federal anti-discrimination laws.” That language mirrors a January executive order signed by Trump banning DEI programs operated by anyone…

A Pueblo father and his girlfriend will serve lengthy prison sentences for the deaths of his two children, whose remains were found encased in concrete in a storage facility and inside a suitcase in an abandoned vehicle, according to court records.

The second suspect in the case, 37-year-old Jesus “Sus” Dominguez, pleaded guilty to one count of second-degree murder. He was sentenced to 32 years in…

Southwest Airlines and a union representing flight attendants have reached an agreement that allows the airline employees to use their sick leave as approved under Colorado’s Healthy Families and Workplace Act. The agreement ends a dispute with the Dallas-based airline over the state policy. Southwest, the second-largest carrier at Denver International Airport, sued in 2022, saying it qualified for a statutory exemption because of its collective bargaining agreement with its employees. The union then sued Southwest Airlines and state officials after the state dramatically reduced a fine against the airline for violations of the state law and agreed not to…
