There’s a philosophical theory if you took all the money in the world and divided it up equally the same people who have all the money today would have all their money back in just a few years.
Wouldn’t you love to have a job where you vote yourself your own salary? What a gift. Recently one of the greatest lucky sperm club families in the history of Denver sports, the Bowlen’s sold your Broncos to an even greater lucky sperm club factory, the Waltons. No, it’s not John Boy; it’s not Walton’s Mountain. However, hide and watch.
The first thing on the agenda is Stan Kroenke, the founder of Kroenke Sports and Entertainment, which is the holding company of the LA Rams of the NFL, the Denver Nuggets of the NBA, the Colorado Avalanche of the NHL, the Colorado Rapids soccer team, the Mammoth lacrosse team, the Arsenal FC and Arsenal WFC, and the esports teams the LA Gladiators and LA Guerillas.
Now his wife is the lovely Ann Walton Kroenke. Ann is the daughter of Walmart co-founder Bud Walton. Now enter the dragon. You call him Rob Walton and he is Ann Walton Kroenke’s cousin. He now owns your Broncos who play at Empower Field, previously known as Broncos Stadium at Mile High, before that INVESCO Field at Mile High, aka Sports Authority Field at Mile High. Is it all starting to come together for you?
He bought your Denver Broncos for a record $4.65 billion. The real question that seems to be pending in the background is a new stadium.
Now remember you marks paid $400.9 million in 1999 to keep Pat Bowlen from skipping out of town with your Broncos back then. It appears your current owners, the Bentonville gang, are going to want a new stadium. They probably will move Elitch Gardens and redevelop that entire valley where the Platte River runs, possibly move the Ball Arena along with a new stadium. How much money do you think they’re gonna make? How much will the Broncos fans go into their pockets again?
But the better one is for all of us in the media to know that Stan Kroenke controls Altitude Sports. If you put together a sports package for every Colorado team but the CU Buffs and Colorado Rockies these guys are going to have some serious power. KOA has the radio rights to broadcast the Broncos games and every TV outlet claims to be the official Denver Broncos station.
The Broncos haven’t been that successful in recent years and people I know and respect tell me Russell Wilson is the quarterback that saved KOA Radio. With one family owning almost all of the teams and controlling almost all of the broadcast rights that’s a lot of political and economic clout. Kind of reminds me of DIA, light rail, the 16th Street Mall, and every other such project where you paid for it and someone else got rich off of it.
This is an early warning. Watch what happens and see if after these people paid all that money how long it will take for the Bentonville team to get all of their money back… from you. You get marked again. That’s called sports grifting. You got sports grifted again.

When I was a little boy and went to the movies, I saw Cecil B. DeMille’s The Ten Commandments with Charlton Heston in the role of Moses. Using that as my go-to, that clearly proves the existence of a historical character by the name of Moses. Well… I would defy anyone with at least room temperature IQ to seek out or show me any historical evidence of the existence of that character/man, Moses. This just in, there ain’t no Moses.
Moses is the equivalent of King Arthur, Paul Bunyon, and Babe the Blue Ox, or any other mythological creature that people use and need to prove their point. Substitute Dinesh D’Souza for Cecil B. DeMille. Here’s your proof the election was stolen for Donald Trump. By the way, Donald Trump is another mythological figure.
The premise is for 2000 fools. People will go through history, life, and religions seeking square pegs to fit into round holes and D’Souza has done it.
When I was a little boy raised in Irish culture, I truly believed Saint Patrick ran the snakes out of Ireland. You guys all know there’s no proof of that, and the other question is where did all the snakes go? And also, by the way, Patrick the mythological figure wasn’t even Irish.
So, we’re at this point where the cheerleaders tell me this film shows clear evidence and is the truth. Then why don’t all these media outfits and individuals who are being sued, and now working to payoff, not taking Dinesh into the courtroom with this so-called proof?
The answer is obvious. It’s a mock-umentary. I watched it, and the company that I still work for underwrote the cost of the operation and it really is third rate, endorsed by any number of people who are in the employment of Salem Broadcasting. Donald Trump is mad at Fox News and OAN and others who will not even begin to cover this film. I’ll give you the reason why they haven’t, they’ve had their rear ends sued off. They’re not going to make any further problems for their chief financial officers. This is the Shroud of Turin. This is Leni Riefenstahl’s Triumph Of The Will.
And for any of you who want to know where the snakes went when they left Ireland, many of them are here in Colorado in the Republican Party, and others are doing talk radio.
I thought it was interesting and it also reminded me of 1950 science fiction movies with horror movie music and what used to be called bad video or grainy video of these shadowy figures stuffing ballot boxes. This nefarious conspiracy of these so-called mules, a name Dinesh lifts from people who illegally bring narcotics into this country. These people submitted ballots in large amounts based on their surveillance video of drop boxes and cell phone data. In watching the trailer, they actually make the charge that it’s organized crime. I’m sure that was funny for John Gotti and Rudolph Giuliani. Nothing that was shown supports their charges. If there is any credible evidence it should be in the courtroom defending OAN or Fox News. And, by the way Dinesh, if it is criminal activity you don’t try to deliver it to the Secretary of State you take it to state or local prosecutors like the AG or District Attorney or the Justice Department.
From my reading the movie is based on research by Texas-based True the Vote which was founded in 2010 and has been a misinformation spreader that equals Black Lives Matter, the Proud Boys, Progress Now, and any number of organizations that exist in the country today all leading to a very bad place.

There was a time in very recent history when Denver was known as the Queen city of the Plains, with incredibly low crime rates, wonderful parks and open space, a thriving downtown, safe streets, no gangs, great schools, respected police, and most of us held the government in esteem. Sure, there were minor problems and sure people from time to time would speak out, but by and large whether they were Democrats or Republicans (and there used to be Republicans in Denver) people respected the city, the state, and the system.
Now let me tell you a joke.
On a Native American reservation, a fat cat blow hard U. S. Senator arrives to solve the problems of the native people. When speaking to their leader the senator asked what kind of help did he need from the federal government?
“First,” the man replied, “We need clean water.” The senator immediately went into a huddle with his aides and briefcase carriers and minions and started screaming into his cell phone that he needed water filtration systems and he needed it now.
He went back to the native man and said, “All of this is on the way. What’s your second problem?” The Indian man said, “Medical care.” Again, the senator retreated into the huddle with his little delegates from D.C., starts screaming into his cell phone and demands loudly medical care, and staff and his traveling companions from D.C. gazed on him with adoring eyes.
He returns to the chief and says, “By the end of the week there will be doctors and nurses here and next year at this time there will be a hospital. What’s your third issue?” And the chief responded, “Cell service.”
Now, can you find the elephants and the giraffes and butterflies in that picture? Of course. How many years now did Webb, Peña, Ritter, Hickenlooper, Owens, and Hancock tell you next week this time there’s going to be clean water, doctors, and all will be well. Are you starting to understand? Are you just so conditioned to being lied to by a combination of the media, Republicans and Democrats, bureaucrats, and law firms? Have you finally had enough?
There is a pending election but like most they will promise you fresh water, medical care and, of course, cell service.

He’s Going To Meet The Devil At 4 O’Clock
On Thursday, March 10, about 12 minutes after the hour of eight o’ clock, while I was hosting my award-winning radio show on 710 KNUS, I got a mouth full of marbles, brain full of mush, and I began speaking in tongues. Now normally none of you would have guessed. But I was experiencing what the medical profession calls a TIA, (a mini stroke).
I was awake through the whole thing, it lasted about 10 minutes, and I could read but the words that came out of my mouth came out backwards. I really never realized I could speak Arabic.
Thanks to Steffan Tubbs who was listening in his car, Ellen Graham and, of course, my show producer and friend Billy Thorpe. The train had gone off the tracks. I had just finished a segment with Brother Jeff who was blaming Donald Trump for Tina Peters, and about to talk to Jimmy Sengenberger about Tina Peters. Now I ask you, is it possible that Tina Peters cast a spell on me with eye of the newt, whisper of the cat, and the banshee cry of the Republican Party?
So, I took an ambulance ride, sitting backwards in the snowstorm, with a young paramedic saying, “Sir, we think you’ve had a stroke.”
I immediately said I don’t have strokes, I give them. I was taken to Aurora Medical Center. I can’t tell you how great my medical treatment was, the team that was led by neurologist Dr. Spencer, and Kaitlynn (first name only) that I promised ski lessons to.
I came through with flying colors. They told me after my trip through the MRI using the Michael Jackson drug because of my claustrophobia, and any number of heart stress tests, there seems to be zero sign of me having a stroke. But I had one.
So, they kept me overnight for observation and kicked me loose Friday afternoon. And I realized from the conversations with the doctors these things are caused by stress, stress, stress, blood pressure, and more blood pressure, and not really controlling my diabetes as I should.
And so, I’ve decided to step away from the 710 KNUS golden microphone and, you knew I’d say it, spend more time with my family. I will still be involved with the radio station at a very personal level. The men and women I work with, from Brian, Kelly, and Mel, I can’t thank all of you enough. It’s been a hell of a run.
One of my favorite fighters in boxing was Rocky Marciano. Rocky was 49-0 and took the gloves off and walked away. He died later in a plane crash but had no trauma to his head and body. On the other hand, Mohammed Ali, Joe Frazier, Sugar Ray Robinson, my childhood heroes stayed too long at the dance and paid for it. Even now with Tom Brady trotting back out on the field my fear is he’ll be hurt.
And so, I don’t know what more we all have to prove. I’ll be 79 in the fall. I played my first record at KAAT Radio and I think it was an Engelbert Humperdinck hit, and now I get to say take care of yourselves. The column will continue here at the Chronicle thanks to Chuck and Julie. I’ve got a great career at 710 KNUS that I can be behind-the-scenes, and for the first time in quite a while I feel relieved.
P.S.: I’ll do a gofundme for Tina Peters if she’ll release me from her evil grasp.

March 2022 Website I am no longer a fan of professional sports, with the one exception of pro wrestling, the only true sport left. I have triggered up tens of thousands of Broncos fans in my award-winning career as Denver’s most hated on-air radio guy.
How many times have you sat in a bar, listened to one of your relatives who’s been at the stadium, listened to sports talk radio, or heard your drunk Uncle Billy say, “My Denver Broncos” or ladies and gentlemen, your Denver Broncos? As I’ve said before and will say again, if you really think these are your Denver Broncos, try and go to the game for free. Or better yet, ask for a free hamburger, beer, or even to park for free, and find out how quickly this is not your team.
Now your Broncos are officially on sale. Most people that I respect believe they will carry the greatest price in North American sports history. The Bowlen trust, God, would I like to be a part of that, has valued the team, according to my close personal friends, right under $4 billion. The last huge sale that I could find was the New York Mets, which sold for $2.4 billion. However, they play more games. Checking on the internet, the Carolina Panthers sold for $2.2 billion in 2018. You know orange and blue is going to go for a hell of a lot more than that.
Let’s turn to the beloved Bowlen family, who cut each other’s throats and couldn’t get along, making the movie Knives look like a documentary. If you remember, Pat Bowlen bought the Denver Broncos from another lucky sperm club member, Edgar Kaiser. I’ve read he paid $74 million. And remember, Edgar tried to buy it back. And they chased him down the street like a red-headed stepson. Edgar passed away in 2012, Mr. Bowlen in 2019, so now, to the best of my knowledge, there are seven who have the golden ticket in the Willy Wonka bar.
Now remember you paid for their brand-new stadium. I remember once asking if people wanted to kick in and buy me a new radio station. I was turned back. So how much tax subsidy did you personally pay? How about sales tax? The Coors Field tax that was left over? The Metro Sports District? All of this now goes to the family. I’ve said this before, I can’t do math and I can’t do marriage but if you divide the magnificent seven into four billion it works out to $571 million each.
Now the obvious question is what about me? As I’ve heard many women say to me what about my needs? Should you and I get part of the action? Should we be getting a portion of the sale? I love the idea of supporting the blood of the city who screamed at the Glendale PD, “I know the mayor.”
I know the mayor, too. Both in Glendale and Denver. For what it’s worth, I watched one officiate the marriage of the other. So how does that entitle me to jack? Take care of yourselves.
Go Broncos.

The State Of Colorado Turns Its Lonely Eyes To You
When I first noticed Kim Kardashian away from reality television and Entertainment Tonight, I found her to be an influence in the social contacts of former President Donald Trump. And then, much to the chagrin of all of my attorney friends, I found out she’s studying to be a lawyer.
My response, when questioned why you didn’t go to law school, has always been, “Because my parents were married.”
So, Jared Polis, no man’s fool, the smartest elected politician in Colorado since Ben Nighthorse Campbell became a Republican, cops one of the greatest, smoothest moves in the history of political infighting in colorful Colorado.
Now mind you, recently convicted Rogel Aguilera-Mederos killed four people and ruined the lives of many more, rightfully was sentenced to 110 years. Remember that Uncle Jared has his eyes on the same offices Uncle Don was in when he first copped a deal with Kim Kardashian.
So, watching the Jefferson County District Attorney’s office doing cartwheels to avoid the plague of social injustice, Jeffco DA Alexis King asked for a hearing for the Judge to reconsider to the mandatory sentence for the 28-car crash driver for losing his brakes coming down I-70. And the Judge agreed.
Enter the dragon. Jared Polis jumped in first and reduced the sentence to 10 years because, although he won’t admit it, he was heavily influenced by none other than Kim Kardashian.
As an elderly straight old man I’m sure Kim Kardashian could influence me to do almost anything. But still, I don’t think I would have walked him out with what former DA and my colleague George Brauchler says could amount to just five years in prison. So, divide four lives taken and countless other lives ruined into five years and what’s he doing, about 28 minutes a life?
Kim called Polis a good person. Now Jared has the Hollywood left, the national social justice warriors, the mainstream media, every two-bit hack in the Democrat Party, and the future locked in.
My prediction is Uncle Jared gets a second term with his eyes on the prize and will be presidential timber in 2024. Kim Kardashian thanked Jared Polis after he reduced the sentence to 10 years from 110 and then Polis denied talking to her. Is this a great country or what?
Keep your eyes on the road ahead. Tap your brakes. And remember according to Kim Kardashian, Aguilera-Mederos will now have an opportunity to come home in five years and be with his son and wife. So much for the people that he killed and the people he burned.
