Some news:
I’m thrilled to have accepted a position in the Arizona Fall League as a Team Operations Coordinator for the Glendale Desert Dogs. Extremely grateful to MLB for this opportunity and I’m excited to be a part of this prestigious league.
I think it’s hilarious how Nuggets twitter decided, oh there’s no way Jokic wins a third MVP unless he averages a triple-double and Denver is the 1 seed.
…and that’s exactly what has happened
An announcement:
I’ve joined the team over at
@MileHighSports
I’ll be hosting two podcasts, one each for the Nuggets & the Rockies, in addition to some writing.
I’m extremely excited for this opportunity and I’m looking forward to producing solid content.

Going to look back in a couple of decades and marvel at how Denver had Nolan Arenado, Nikola Jokic, Nathan Mackinnon, and Von Miller/Peyton Manning in the same short span of time.
I’m blessed to say that I’ve been hired to my first job in the baseball industry!
I’ll be joining the team at Synergy Sports as Baseball Video Scout once I graduate in May, primarily working in SoCal. I’m super excited for this opportunity
The greatest sight in basketball is Nikola Jokic telling each of his teammates exactly where to stand while Jamal Murray dribbles behind him, waiting to initiate the play.

You’re telling me that the best shooting big man in the league shouldn’t be mad at JEFF TEAGUE passing up a wide open shot to drive into contested territory?

Chris Owings has a career wRC+ of 70 against left handed pitchers.
Sam Hilliard? 156!
(His wRC+ against lefties is higher than his wRC+ against righties)

He’s in shape.
He’s played more minutes than anyone in the league since January 15th. Carried an injury riddled team past many great teams.
Beat the Jazz with 6 teammates, (two of which were G Leaguers, and one was an 0-13 Gary Harris)

I’m very excited about this opportunity. I’m looking forward to bringing you all some high quality Nuggets content.
The NBA and ESPN are working on televising a H-O-R-S-E competition involving several high-profile players, sources say. Players would shoot in isolation – presumably in home gyms – and match shots against competitors. Details are still being finalized.
Time, score, moment: no one’s ever thrown a pass that good. Stockton threw it about 75 feet, over one of the greatest ballhawks in the history of the game, Michael Jordan, tailing the ball away from him, hitting a MOVING Karl Malone IN STRIDE. Don’t @ me.
