- 0:12Speaker 1: appo Watch.
- 0:20Speaker 2: Out the Field app Yeah, well he'll be fine. No updates.
- 0:25Speaker 3: Outside of the defense dominating yesterday for the second straight day.
- 0:29Speaker 3: The big news was in the first inside run drill,
- 0:33Speaker 3: the first nine on seven that we saw in a
- 0:35Speaker 3: padded practice Yessuary. We spent four hours saying that there
- 0:38Speaker 3: weren't gonna be in pads, and everyone showed up in
- 0:40Speaker 3: Guardian caps as we walk in into Moja Lombardy and
- 0:42Speaker 3: Kane Raj filling in for Kaner alongside Vic and Moje.
- 0:45Speaker 3: The story of the day yesterday, on the second play
- 0:48Speaker 3: on inside run, Nick Benino gets rolled up on. He
- 0:51Speaker 3: goes down onto the ground, stays down there for about
- 0:54Speaker 3: five minutes, and then hobbles off the field under his
- 0:57Speaker 3: own power, but being aided by team doctors and physicians.
- 1:02Speaker 3: He left practice. He did not return, but Sean Payton says.
- 1:05Speaker 2: Peyton Hill, He's fine, He's gonna be okay, But he
- 1:07Speaker 2: looked scared. He was on the ground. He was laying
- 1:09Speaker 2: on his back, for a good five to ten minutes.
- 1:12Speaker 2: I mean, he didn't move. He's sitting there, as you know,
- 1:15Speaker 2: when you're sitting there and you just uh, you're you're
- 1:18Speaker 2: in that mode like, oh god, I hope this isn't bad. Oh,
- 1:21Speaker 2: you're resigned to the fact that I just got hurt.
- 1:23Speaker 2: I hope it's not bad. And the trainers are around him.
- 1:26Speaker 2: And then he managed to limp off the field on
- 1:28Speaker 2: his own power, so it wasn't as bad as he
- 1:30Speaker 2: thought he was.
- 1:31Speaker 3: The good news is moj that so Vic saw it
- 1:34Speaker 3: from Were you sitting on the west side, underneath the
- 1:37Speaker 3: right behind it?
- 1:37Speaker 2: All right?
- 1:38Speaker 3: So I was sitting behind the defense next to coach Sandford.
- 1:42Speaker 3: I didn't see it happen, but what I did see
- 1:44Speaker 3: was that there was a crush of bodies. This injury,
- 1:48Speaker 3: whatever it was, was not no contact, right, This was
- 1:51Speaker 3: a contact injury.
- 1:52Speaker 2: It was the very first play of nine on seven,
- 1:55Speaker 2: the very first play, that's when it happened. And he
- 1:58Speaker 2: just got rolled up on that's it, as you just expressed,
- 2:01Speaker 2: and he's gonna be fine. I think we'd know by
- 2:04Speaker 2: now if there was something without a doubt. Yeah, I mean,
- 2:08Speaker 2: I I just it's a bad ankle and he's gonna
- 2:10Speaker 2: have to deal with it for the rest of the Campbell.
- 2:12Speaker 2: See if he's even out here today. If he's if
- 2:14Speaker 2: he's in practice, then it's nothing. If he's not practicing,
- 2:17Speaker 2: then it's something you have to work. You have to
- 2:19Speaker 2: get the work in, You've got to do the work,
- 2:21Speaker 2: You've got to practice these things.
- 2:23Speaker 4: But if you're an NFL head coach at this point, right,
- 2:26Speaker 4: and you see it all around the league, I've been talking.
- 2:28Speaker 2: I've been talking about it. Yeah, it's just I.
- 2:30Speaker 4: Think every day when you walk out here, you hold
- 2:33Speaker 4: your breath that something freak doesn't happen. Is anybody trying
- 2:37Speaker 4: to roll up on anybody? The answer is no, nobody's
- 2:39Speaker 4: trying to roll up on a teammate. And you know,
- 2:41Speaker 4: one of the best pass rushers in the league and
- 2:43Speaker 4: send him out for the year.
- 2:44Speaker 2: I've had you try to roll up on me other Yeah,
- 2:46Speaker 2: well you probably deserved it.
- 2:48Speaker 4: But the fact of the matter is is that this
- 2:49Speaker 4: is football, man, and that's going to happen. Rock You've
- 2:52Speaker 4: seen it a million times in hockey. You're you're skating
- 2:54Speaker 4: around a practice, right, guys collide You're like, how the
- 2:57Speaker 4: hell does that happen, you sort of hold your breath
- 2:59Speaker 4: and hope that everything's going to be okay. But the
- 3:02Speaker 4: fact that Peyton came out and said he'll be fine,
- 3:04Speaker 4: that means preliminarily, when they looked at it, they're like, yeah,
- 3:07Speaker 4: he's gonna be okay. He probably won't be out today.
- 3:10Speaker 4: Take some precautions going forward with Nick Benito. But man,
- 3:14Speaker 4: when you see a guy like that, as valuable as
- 3:17Speaker 4: he is to this team go down and lay down,
- 3:21Speaker 4: that is a hold your breath and just cross your
- 3:24Speaker 4: fingers type of moment.
- 3:25Speaker 3: Right he stayed down. That was a period of five minutes. Now,
- 3:28Speaker 3: the inside run drill did not stop, like they the
- 3:31Speaker 3: Broncos didn't miss you.
- 3:33Speaker 2: Yeah, you gotta do that.
- 3:34Speaker 3: They kept going, and Sean let the media know that,
- 3:36Speaker 3: you know, every single minute of practice is legislated weeks
- 3:40Speaker 3: if not months in advance, so like, if there's an injury,
- 3:43Speaker 3: we keep going. It doesn't matter if it's too uh,
- 3:45Speaker 3: you know, the the eighty seventh guy on the roster,
- 3:48Speaker 3: or if it's to Nick Benito, who's one of the
- 3:50Speaker 3: top five pass rushers in the game today, I don't
- 3:53Speaker 3: really expect to see him out here. So we saw
- 3:55Speaker 3: Luke Wattenberg jogging around yesterday, but the Lautenberg injury was
- 3:59Speaker 3: expected to be an upper body injury. If this is
- 4:02Speaker 3: an ankle, man like, I don't I don't need to
- 4:04Speaker 3: see Nick out here.
- 4:05Speaker 2: Right now, Na, Na, man, you dodged a bullet. Basically,
- 4:08Speaker 2: you got a lot of big bodies in the same spot. Right.
- 4:11Speaker 2: It's chaos on a football field. Nine on seven is
- 4:13Speaker 2: organized chaos. You're telling the defense that you're gonna run
- 4:16Speaker 2: the ball inside, and the defense is trying to get
- 4:19Speaker 2: to the interior, so you're gonna run over bodies. Chris Bianki,
- 4:22Speaker 2: by the way, just noted that we have tied two
- 4:25Speaker 2: records in the last thirty eight hours. The other day
- 4:29Speaker 2: at two thirty pm, we were here a Monday record
- 4:33Speaker 2: for this date in history in Colorado, one hundred and
- 4:35Speaker 2: two degrees in Denver. Right, and some thirty eight hours
- 4:38Speaker 2: later at four thirty am this morning, a tidy low
- 4:42Speaker 2: of forty eight degrees. That's a fifty four degree swing.
- 4:47Speaker 2: It was.
- 4:48Speaker 3: See, I felt like it was colder yesterday.
- 4:49Speaker 2: Well, because today you're prepared. I told you there's nothing
- 4:52Speaker 2: colder gonna yeah, unprepared cold.
- 4:55Speaker 4: Yeah, but well there's also there's no cloud cover and
- 4:58Speaker 4: there's no breeze blowing, which got exacerbated the situation.
- 5:01Speaker 2: But as you'll see, gentlemen, what did I do today?
- 5:04Speaker 4: You wore shoes? I wore shoes like a normal adult. Yes,
- 5:07Speaker 4: like an adult. Don't wear for the entire first.
- 5:11Speaker 3: You got your little piggies out for the last few
- 5:13Speaker 3: days of practice.
- 5:13Speaker 2: Dude.
- 5:14Speaker 4: I wear flip flops in the summertime every day of
- 5:16Speaker 4: my life. I love I love flip flops, love them.
- 5:20Speaker 3: I don't even I've ever seen someone else here at
- 5:23Speaker 3: camp working.
- 5:25Speaker 4: Camp, Jeff Jeff lake Walds worn flip flops.
- 5:28Speaker 3: There's other I've never seen you wearing flops.
- 5:30Speaker 2: There's other people. I'm sure he and I know those people,
- 5:33Speaker 2: the friends of mine. And if those people are listening,
- 5:34Speaker 2: I'm gonna say the same same thing to use I'm
- 5:36Speaker 2: saying emosher be a.
- 5:38Speaker 4: Professional, time out, you have time a professional? Why is
- 5:41Speaker 4: it okay for women to wear just listen? Listen SAMs flips? Okay,
- 5:46Speaker 4: be a professional journalist, I broadcast. Okay, are you gonna
- 5:52Speaker 4: wear flip flops? Head and navs game? Yes, of course not?
- 5:55Speaker 2: Okay?
- 5:55Speaker 4: Why Why because I'm becus? What because I'm more a
- 6:00Speaker 4: suit because you're a professional. Yeah, correct, thank you.
- 6:02Speaker 3: You just can't tell me that you've never worn sandals
- 6:06Speaker 3: with a suit.
- 6:06Speaker 2: You never, not one time. I don't know, but I
- 6:09Speaker 2: don't think I just answered the question. But I've thought
- 6:11Speaker 2: about this. It's so it's a sexual bias between men
- 6:14Speaker 2: and women.
- 6:15Speaker 4: Women can wear sandals, you know, with their toes hanging out,
- 6:19Speaker 4: and they can wear flips and blah blah blah blah
- 6:21Speaker 4: blah again. But a dude throws a pair of flips
- 6:23Speaker 4: on all of a sudden.
- 6:24Speaker 2: He's easy, clown. You have right, Yes, you're on professional.
- 6:29Speaker 2: Thank you, I said, estate man, I got see, I
- 6:33Speaker 2: got long John's underneath this. I am all. I am
- 6:36Speaker 2: set up all good today and it's going to be
- 6:37Speaker 2: a great day. Let's see if they get a bit
- 6:39Speaker 2: more physical today as expected. We't. We'll find out how
- 6:43Speaker 2: much more physical they'll be. I thought yesterday was yesterday?
- 6:46Speaker 2: During that nine on seven, did you hear some of
- 6:48Speaker 2: the popping had? Yeah? Wow, there's a lot of like
- 6:51Speaker 2: fireworks out of here.
- 6:52Speaker 3: It was so interesting that first nine on period coincided
- 6:56Speaker 3: with what we expected to be the first day of
- 6:59Speaker 3: one on ones with wide receivers and defensive backs. But
- 7:02Speaker 3: again we spent four hours talking about this thinking that
- 7:05Speaker 3: was gonna be either an unpadded practice where at the
- 7:08Speaker 3: very least just like spiders on shells on for the team. No,
- 7:12Speaker 3: they come out in back plates and guardian caps. And
- 7:16Speaker 3: then when the nine on seven period happens almost simultaneously
- 7:19Speaker 3: on the far side of the field from us, right
- 7:21Speaker 3: next to the fans, we get the first one on
- 7:23Speaker 3: one period where we see Jalen Wattle go against Patzertan
- 7:27Speaker 3: and he burns him twice.
- 7:29Speaker 2: And we saw our first scrap of camp yesterday. Yes,
- 7:32Speaker 2: and it's Girmish. You know, it's interesting, it's only it's
- 7:35Speaker 2: abound to happen. I noticed this yesterday. They were doing
- 7:38Speaker 2: blocking drills off to the side, and it's linemen blocking
- 7:42Speaker 2: fellow linemen and the guys getting blocked they're supposed to,
- 7:46Speaker 2: you know, just bat pedal a little bit, feel the effects.
- 7:48Speaker 2: But you could tell the frustration from some of the dudes.
- 7:51Speaker 2: They're like, dude, chill out, you know what, It's just
- 7:54Speaker 2: a drill. You could see it in their faces when
- 7:57Speaker 2: they're upset at their teammates that they're going too hard.
- 8:00Speaker 4: Well, here's part of the problem. When one side is
- 8:02Speaker 4: trying to do their drill but the other side is
- 8:04Speaker 4: instructed hey, don't don't resist too much. That the side
- 8:08Speaker 4: that's not resisting too much gets a little pissed and
- 8:11Speaker 4: you know, stop pushing me around because I'm not allowed
- 8:13Speaker 4: to push you back.
- 8:14Speaker 2: It's sort of unspoken. There's an unspoken ruler here, chill out.
- 8:17Speaker 2: Correct Who was the.
- 8:18Speaker 3: Dude that was running ahead of the offensive line two
- 8:23Speaker 3: days ago when they were doing I wouldn't say suicides,
- 8:25Speaker 3: but they were doing sidelines. At the end of practice
- 8:28Speaker 3: on Tuesday, there is one offensive lineman that Tyler was like,
- 8:31Speaker 3: you're gonna he gets fined tonight.
- 8:33Speaker 2: It used to be Tebow. Tebow during the Yeah, everybody's like,
- 8:38Speaker 2: all right, dude, let's chill it out. You know, let's
- 8:41Speaker 2: calm down a little bit. The rest of us just
- 8:43Speaker 2: want to have a nice day at practice.
- 8:45Speaker 3: You know, where you're making a team being first guy
- 8:47Speaker 3: in suicides high school, Yeah, I don't think you're making
- 8:49Speaker 3: the broncos if you're just beating everyone on side to
- 8:52Speaker 3: see if.
- 8:52Speaker 4: You're if you're on if you're on the scout team
- 8:54Speaker 4: and you're rudy and you're going against my third string running.
- 8:58Speaker 2: Back every single day something like that. Noo.
- 9:01Speaker 4: But the fact of the matter is is that this
- 9:03Speaker 4: is about the time. Look what's today, Today's Wednesday. They've been,
- 9:07Speaker 4: you know, running around each other, bashing each other just
- 9:09Speaker 4: a little bit for the past five days, and this
- 9:12Speaker 4: is about the time. Yeah, you get your first skirmish,
- 9:15Speaker 4: you get your first whatever it may be. Guys are
- 9:17Speaker 4: getting their dander up a little bit, and that's to
- 9:20Speaker 4: be expected. I mean again, when I look at Benito
- 9:22Speaker 4: getting rolled up on, I look at at you know,
- 9:25Speaker 4: the skirmish and in the one on this is about
- 9:28Speaker 4: the time of camp when those things start to happen.
- 9:30Speaker 4: It's a natural progression. It happens in every single training camp.
- 9:34Speaker 4: And Rash, I was listening to you in the appetizer
- 9:36Speaker 4: hour a little bit and you're like, You're like, this
- 9:40Speaker 4: camp is very professional, and it's very efficient, and it's
- 9:43Speaker 4: very this, and it's very that. And I'm thinking to myself,
- 9:46Speaker 4: you're right about that. But even if you go to
- 9:48Speaker 4: the worst team in the NFL, if let's say you
- 9:51Speaker 4: go to I mean, you can go to the Tennessee
- 9:52Speaker 4: Titans camp. The way camps work nowadays, there's no Lucy
- 9:58Speaker 4: Goosey anymore. I mean, everybody is. I mean, these teams
- 10:02Speaker 4: are because the time constrictions and with the CBA, teams
- 10:06Speaker 4: have to be efficient, they have to be crisp.
- 10:08Speaker 3: It didn't feel like that under Hackett, though. Didn't it
- 10:10Speaker 3: feel like it was a little bit of a summer
- 10:12Speaker 3: camp under Hacket? It doesn't feel the way that way
- 10:15Speaker 3: under Shan.
- 10:16Speaker 4: I think because Peyton has a certain aura of seriousness
- 10:20Speaker 4: about him when he's out there.
- 10:21Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I get that. I think it comes
- 10:23Speaker 2: from the coach.
- 10:23Speaker 4: But look all these teams, all these pro teams, even
- 10:26Speaker 4: the crappy ones, even the Jets, are trying to run crisp, clean, good.
- 10:31Speaker 2: Practices because you gotta get your work out.
- 10:33Speaker 3: I think what you were hearing during that segment. I
- 10:36Speaker 3: saw the video of Justin Herbert having a picnic essentially
- 10:39Speaker 3: on the ground of Chargers training camp with his fiance
- 10:43Speaker 3: or his wife, I don't know if they're married or not.
- 10:45Speaker 3: Madison Beer the pop star, and she's playing with his
- 10:48Speaker 3: hair big and they're looking longingly into each other's eyes.
- 10:51Speaker 3: And I get that that's nice to be young and
- 10:54Speaker 3: engaged and in love. But every time that I look
- 10:57Speaker 3: at Justin Herbert. Every year I see him on social
- 11:00Speaker 3: or on video, I can't help but think that's an
- 11:04Speaker 3: un serious quarterback.
- 11:06Speaker 2: Why why that is he unseerious?
- 11:09Speaker 3: It feels as though he is involved with things that
- 11:12Speaker 3: are off field, and when it comes down to the
- 11:15Speaker 3: nitty gritty, when it comes down to needing a play,
- 11:18Speaker 3: he's just never there with all that immense talent. Maybe
- 11:21Speaker 3: it's just the hatred of the Chargers, but I saw
- 11:23Speaker 3: that video and I went, I'm happy that we've got
- 11:26Speaker 3: bon Nicks here. The only thing that this guy thinks
- 11:28Speaker 3: about is football. The only thing that this guy thinks
- 11:30Speaker 3: about is finding a way to prove the people that
- 11:33Speaker 3: you know vote for him as the eighteenth best quarterback
- 11:35Speaker 3: in the league despite having twenty four wins over his
- 11:38Speaker 3: first couple of years. I'm happy we got.
- 11:41Speaker 2: That son of a football coach, the mentality of a
- 11:43Speaker 2: football fanatic, and you're exactly right about that. He lives
- 11:47Speaker 2: and dies this stuff. In fact, if you go back
- 11:50Speaker 2: and rank all Broncal quarterbacks in terms of who eight
- 11:55Speaker 2: and slept football more, Peyton Manning would probably be number one. Yeah,
- 12:00Speaker 2: that list tops. This guy might be number two. This
- 12:04Speaker 2: guy might be number two over John. Well, you guys
- 12:07Speaker 2: know the insides and outs of John. Yeah, I mean John,
- 12:09Speaker 2: John was a little different. John wasn't as corporate. Some
- 12:13Speaker 2: of these guys are more corporate. John was a dude.
- 12:16Speaker 2: John was a dude. He was a dude.
- 12:19Speaker 4: You're telling me this quarterback takes his job more seriously
- 12:24Speaker 4: than Paxton Lynch? Did I find that hard to believe?
- 12:27Speaker 2: Man? I find that no, kidding, But do you understand
- 12:30Speaker 2: the difference there? What I'm getting at, dude versus a
- 12:34Speaker 2: guy who's this football. Of course, John took football seriously,
- 12:40Speaker 2: but he also took fun seriously, you know, And I
- 12:43Speaker 2: think this guy is all football all the time.
- 12:46Speaker 3: I do think that's part of the era that Bo
- 12:49Speaker 3: has grown up in, the era that he goes into
- 12:52Speaker 3: the NFL, and which is the era of the the
- 12:55Speaker 3: pr regulated quarterback, right the face of the franchise being
- 13:00Speaker 3: the quarterback now right Like John certainly had that in
- 13:03Speaker 3: the mid nineties and late nineties when he got into
- 13:05Speaker 3: the latter stage of his career, but it drastically changed
- 13:08Speaker 3: with you know, ESPN and Sports Center being in your
- 13:12Speaker 3: face constantly, and obviously with social and all the media
- 13:17Speaker 3: appearances that you have to make as a quarterback, you
- 13:18Speaker 3: have to be a little bit more buttoned up.
- 13:20Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 13:21Speaker 4: Well look, bottom line is this, if you're married to
- 13:24Speaker 4: a pop star or engaged to a pop star and
- 13:28Speaker 4: she wants to play with your hair, you're probably gonna
- 13:29Speaker 4: let her play with your hair, right. I mean, I
- 13:32Speaker 4: remember Russ when he was in Seattle, takes big contract.
- 13:35Speaker 4: When did his life He's in bed with with his
- 13:38Speaker 4: you know, wivest we got the deal done and all
- 13:41Speaker 4: that kind of thing. I guess his life changed when
- 13:43Speaker 4: he's when he started dating her and married her.
- 13:45Speaker 3: I guess hindsight is twenty twenty. But I remember these
- 13:49Speaker 3: training camps a handful of years ago when the the
- 13:52Speaker 3: highlight of the morning was Vic singing at Sierra, which
- 13:56Speaker 3: she walked across.
- 13:56Speaker 2: Very embarrassing on my part, very embarrassing. He was trying
- 14:01Speaker 2: to be fun. But the funny thing about that whole
- 14:03Speaker 2: episode was every single day she came with an ensemble
- 14:06Speaker 2: of security.
- 14:08Speaker 4: They're like four security guards, do you remember that? And
- 14:10Speaker 4: they had one dude carrying all the kid's toys. Remember that.
- 14:13Speaker 2: It was just it was it was a big wheelway. Yeah,
- 14:16Speaker 2: what I'm saying yeah, it was.
- 14:17Speaker 3: It was a serious quarterback at that point in his career.
- 14:20Speaker 2: Quarterback.
- 14:21Speaker 4: As we go on here too, you're talking about Jaylen
- 14:23Speaker 4: Wattle and Pats or Tan going at it and all
- 14:25Speaker 4: that kind of thing. I loved what Waddle had to
- 14:28Speaker 4: say about Marvin Mims when he said, Marv, I'm a
- 14:31Speaker 4: big fan of Marvin Mims. I'm not going to lie.
- 14:33Speaker 4: Is very explosive. I love watching him work, love being
- 14:35Speaker 4: in meetings with him picking his brain. Marvin's a big play,
- 14:38Speaker 4: always ready to happen. You've got to respect that kind
- 14:41Speaker 4: of speed. Look, man, receivers know, right, they know when
- 14:45Speaker 4: a guy's got something. I'm really hoping, gentlemen, that Marvin Mims,
- 14:50Speaker 4: like we've been speculating, well what does this mean for him?
- 14:53Speaker 4: You know, are they gonna utilize him? Should he move on?
- 14:55Speaker 4: Will he want to move on? And so on?
- 14:57Speaker 2: He's having a good camp. I hope that this.
- 15:00Speaker 4: I hope this is the start of something where he
- 15:03Speaker 4: becomes this weapon inside this offense that is something that
- 15:06Speaker 4: you can count on and something that you count on
- 15:08Speaker 4: them putting him out on the field.
- 15:10Speaker 2: When we come back. I did some digging on this yesterday.
- 15:14Speaker 2: The Broncos revealed their plans for the stadium district. All right,
- 15:18Speaker 2: we didn't see any renderings of the stadium, but we
- 15:20Speaker 2: saw plenty of the district itself. What's the hold up?
- 15:24Speaker 2: What was Demandi Leech referring to about, you know, things
- 15:28Speaker 2: taking time? What is the hold up? I did a
- 15:30Speaker 2: little digging on what that hold up is.

- 16:04Speaker 4: I love when Vic has this. I've got intel. I've
- 16:07Speaker 4: been doing some digging. All right, Rockford Files, what do
- 16:09Speaker 4: you got? Okay, well, what do you mean you love it? Okay, Well,
- 16:13Speaker 4: I mean I love it because you do your your
- 16:15Speaker 4: due diligence. Now we're talking about Burnham Yard, which I
- 16:18Speaker 4: was right by yesterday. I'm trying so I don't know
- 16:20Speaker 4: about you, but every time I drive by, I start
- 16:23Speaker 4: like at sixth Avenue and then I try to envision
- 16:26Speaker 4: all the way to thirteenth Avenue what it's going to
- 16:28Speaker 4: look like.
- 16:29Speaker 2: Do you do that at all? Do you guys?
- 16:30Speaker 4: I mean, do you guys drive by and try to envision. Okay,
- 16:33Speaker 4: that'll be this the south end, and this will be
- 16:36Speaker 4: the stadium, and this will be this little parking lot,
- 16:38Speaker 4: and this will be the north end.
- 16:39Speaker 2: And at some point.
- 16:40Speaker 3: It's dangerous, like I feel like I've almost gotten a car.
- 16:42Speaker 4: Maybe, yeah, especially by the way rush hour in Denver.
- 16:46Speaker 4: Dude is there. I don't know, man, It's just I
- 16:49Speaker 4: deal with it in the wintertime obviously, well during hockey season,
- 16:52Speaker 4: every day of my life. But it's it's a pain
- 16:54Speaker 4: of the boat. Okay, Yeah, don't be staring at Burnham Yard. Here.
- 16:57Speaker 2: Here's what I've come to yesterday. It was not it
- 17:01Speaker 2: wasn't a coincidence that the Broncos released all these renderings
- 17:06Speaker 2: and all these ideas and all these displays and drawings
- 17:10Speaker 2: of what the district is going to look like. It
- 17:13Speaker 2: is an effort in my opinion. First of all, they're working.
- 17:16Speaker 2: Let's get this thing moving. Let's get this thing going.
- 17:20Speaker 2: If we're going to get it built and ready to
- 17:22Speaker 2: go by twenty thirty one, we have to remove all
- 17:26Speaker 2: obstacles in the way. What are those obstacles, Well, most
- 17:29Speaker 2: of them the Broncos have already covered most of them
- 17:32Speaker 2: are you know, the effects inside the Burnham Yard area
- 17:36Speaker 2: that they needed to buy up and take care of.
- 17:40Speaker 2: But there remains one obstacle that they're dealing with right
- 17:43Speaker 2: now that frankly, I don't know the answer to it,
- 17:46Speaker 2: and that is the community advocates who are demanding certain things.
- 17:51Speaker 2: You can call them community advocates. Some might refer to
- 17:54Speaker 2: them as community extortionists. You could say, whatever you want,
- 17:57Speaker 2: what do they want? I don't know what they want.
- 18:00Speaker 2: The Broncos really don't know what they want because they
- 18:02Speaker 2: don't speak for themselves. They've hired consultants to do the
- 18:04Speaker 2: speaking for them. And I'm not sure why you would
- 18:07Speaker 2: need a consultant. And I speak here from the way someone.
- 18:10Speaker 4: Saying the community people, because there are people who want
- 18:13Speaker 4: to keep Burnham Yard the way it is? Right they
- 18:16Speaker 4: what do they want to do? The hell would want
- 18:17Speaker 4: to keep it the way it is? I have no idea,
- 18:19Speaker 4: but you're telling what reason. You're telling me that this
- 18:20Speaker 4: group has hired consultants to speak for them about wanting
- 18:24Speaker 4: to keep Okay, the broken concrete and crack.
- 18:26Speaker 2: I want you to take a look at this, and
- 18:28Speaker 2: you're looking at it right now, Rose, You're looking at
- 18:29Speaker 2: this area right here. Everything inside that area that's colored
- 18:32Speaker 2: in it's all industrial, right. There are no homes that
- 18:35Speaker 2: are going to be raised here. No, there are no
- 18:37Speaker 2: all industrial, no neighborhoods destroyed here. Correct. No one's going
- 18:40Speaker 2: to lose their home that they've lived in for fifty years.
- 18:43Speaker 2: That's not happening here, So take that off the list.
- 18:46Speaker 2: There's there's no worries, no issues there. That is entirely
- 18:49Speaker 2: industrial stuff. What's been there. There's been companies that run
- 18:54Speaker 2: anonymously that you would never know are there. There's been
- 18:57Speaker 2: a lot of just open space there. There's been a
- 19:00Speaker 2: lot of rail yards waste there that there's been stuff
- 19:02Speaker 2: that no one's ever dealt with. You're not ruining anybody's home, correct,
- 19:09Speaker 2: You're actually the traffic issues. The people that wondered how
- 19:14Speaker 2: would this affect traffic, they've showed you the rendering to
- 19:17Speaker 2: how they're going to re route streets. The eighth Avenue
- 19:19Speaker 2: Viaduct is coming down. They're gonna actually it's gonna help traffic.
- 19:23Speaker 2: Frankly to the point where I'm not sure how that's
- 19:25Speaker 2: going to operate without cars because they're eliminating a lot
- 19:28Speaker 2: of parking lots and stuff. So I'm not sure how
- 19:31Speaker 2: you're gonna run this without vehicles being able to go.
- 19:33Speaker 3: I mean, there's hardly any parking lots. Yeah, is this
- 19:36Speaker 3: one parking lot on the south side of it.
- 19:38Speaker 2: They've got parking lots nearby, and they've got they've got
- 19:41Speaker 2: underground parking lots inside there too that you cannot see. Uh.
- 19:44Speaker 2: The other thing that they're doing is that they're adding
- 19:47Speaker 2: parks and trails. You see all the open space there.
- 19:49Speaker 2: They're being very creative, so they're they're being amenable there.
- 19:52Speaker 2: They're they're doing low income housing, which comes with it.
- 19:55Speaker 2: Anytime you work with the city at Denver, anytime you
- 19:57Speaker 2: work with any cities, you you better provide that. So
- 20:00Speaker 2: They've got a lot of low income housing that's going
- 20:02Speaker 2: in there in addition to some of the commercial properties.
- 20:05Speaker 2: So what's the problem then, So they've addressed the traffic.
- 20:08Speaker 2: They they've actually helped with the traffic. They've addressed the
- 20:11Speaker 2: people that live there, and the history people too. There's
- 20:15Speaker 2: and don't even get me going on this preserving history.
- 20:18Speaker 2: What history? What? What history? Jesse? You're born Jesse, you're
- 20:24Speaker 2: like me, You're born and raised in Denver, right where
- 20:26Speaker 2: Denver is? What history? My dad worked for the railroad
- 20:31Speaker 2: for twenty six years. He worked there, He worked there.
- 20:34Speaker 2: If anybody knows the history what history is? I don't know.
- 20:40Speaker 4: I can tell you this having been there on multiple occasions.
- 20:44Speaker 4: The amount of waste, and you know, the amount of
- 20:48Speaker 4: rag what I'm talking about is like industrial waste that's
- 20:51Speaker 4: in the soil there at Burnham Yard. The amount I
- 20:55Speaker 4: don't know how. I don't know how deep they have
- 20:57Speaker 4: to go, how the top how deep the top layer
- 20:59Speaker 4: has to go to be taken off. But there's a
- 21:02Speaker 4: lot of crap in the ground there, and the Broncos
- 21:04Speaker 4: are willing to take care of it and do it themselves,
- 21:07Speaker 4: so they're paying for all of it.
- 21:08Speaker 2: Don't.
- 21:09Speaker 4: I don't for the life of me, vic I can't
- 21:12Speaker 4: understand why somebody would be against this.
- 21:16Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 21:18Speaker 4: I mean, how could you get a collective group of
- 21:20Speaker 4: people against this?
- 21:21Speaker 2: And what is their point? What do they want? Well?
- 21:24Speaker 2: I know several community members in that area who cannot
- 21:27Speaker 2: wait for the project to get going because it's going
- 21:30Speaker 2: to actually help the properties that they own in and
- 21:33Speaker 2: around there. And then there are those again who I
- 21:35Speaker 2: would call not community community advocates, community extortionists because they're
- 21:41Speaker 2: just basically waiting for something. They're waiting and what is
- 21:44Speaker 2: that stuffing? These guys don't know what they want. When
- 21:47Speaker 2: I say these guys, I'm pointing to the Broncos, right,
- 21:49Speaker 2: what do you want? What do you think they want?
- 21:53Speaker 2: What do you think they want? They answered every question
- 21:55Speaker 2: they give you to the parks and trails, they've given you,
- 21:58Speaker 2: the low income they they've helped you with the traffic,
- 22:02Speaker 2: they've designed it to a point where it's gonna mix
- 22:04Speaker 2: with the city. So what do you think they want?
- 22:08Speaker 2: What's left? I have no idea. Does anybody answer to somebody?
- 22:15Speaker 2: Anybody answer that question? Here's why I know they answer.
- 22:17Speaker 4: Someone says there are historical buildings in the Denver Water property?
- 22:21Speaker 2: What what historical buildings?
- 22:23Speaker 4: What?
- 22:24Speaker 2: Somebody help me with?
- 22:25Speaker 3: What?
- 22:25Speaker 2: Guys, what are you talking about? I would I know
- 22:28Speaker 2: every inch of Denver. There's no historical buildings in Burnham Yard.
- 22:33Speaker 2: And if there are, they're gonna work with them. And
- 22:35Speaker 2: look at the renderings. They're taking that little circle thing?
- 22:38Speaker 2: What is that? You use? The turntable? And every has
- 22:42Speaker 2: anybody listening to this radio show? And they're making it
- 22:45Speaker 2: a park. There's a thing called a turn.
- 22:46Speaker 3: It still looks like a turntable.
- 22:48Speaker 2: Has anybody in Denver ever heard or seen the Burnham
- 22:52Speaker 2: Yard turntable? Anyone? I call upon all Denver natives, anybody
- 22:58Speaker 2: who lives in that area. Does anybody know what the
- 22:59Speaker 2: hell are referring to? So that's I almost curse there.
- 23:02Speaker 2: What bunch of bs? It's bs is what that is?
- 23:06Speaker 2: So again, what do you want? I'm calling out this?
- 23:11Speaker 2: These are extortionists. They're professional extortionists that do this everywhere.
- 23:15Speaker 2: It's not like.
- 23:18Speaker 3: You're mowing down Union Station, right.
- 23:21Speaker 4: I mean, for God's sake, no, you're you're exactly right
- 23:24Speaker 4: about that. I don't I I just don't know. Uh,
- 23:29Speaker 4: Denver Preservation iss say demolition of historic Burnham Yards buildings
- 23:33Speaker 4: was deeply immoral. This is back some time ago. I
- 23:37Speaker 4: don't I don't know people the god. I'm all for
- 23:42Speaker 4: preserving history, I am do you have to realize what
- 23:46Speaker 4: this property is. I would encourage anybody to go there.
- 23:49Speaker 4: If you really are questioning what we're talking about, drive
- 23:53Speaker 4: your ass down there, park at the Buck Corner, by
- 23:55Speaker 4: the Buck Corner, walk your ass in there, and then
- 23:57Speaker 4: go see exactly what I'm talking about.
- 23:59Speaker 2: You're gonna go. This is a scrap yard. This is crap.
- 24:02Speaker 2: It's crap, it's crap. Again, there's there's a locomotive building
- 24:06Speaker 2: that is useless. It's it's all weeds, it's drug addicts,
- 24:09Speaker 2: it's drugs. And they're actually gonna turn it into a museum.
- 24:14Speaker 2: So that's part of the project. So they're actually uplifting
- 24:17Speaker 2: the area. What's the problem, what what's the issue here?
- 24:22Speaker 4: This?
- 24:22Speaker 2: Okay?
- 24:22Speaker 4: Well, and again if you're talking about okay, this building
- 24:25Speaker 4: was built in nineteen twenty seven. Well, if it's condemned,
- 24:28Speaker 4: it's condemned, and it's full of graffiti and and and
- 24:31Speaker 4: drug paraphernalia, knock it down. I don't care if it
- 24:34Speaker 4: was built in twenty seven. If it's a little, if
- 24:36Speaker 4: it's a little crab shack that should be condemned and
- 24:39Speaker 4: is falling apart, then knock it down. We're not talking
- 24:41Speaker 4: about the friggin capital or the Molly Brown House. Okay,
- 24:44Speaker 4: we're not. We're not talking about that. Oh now you
- 24:46Speaker 4: got me fired up about it.
- 24:47Speaker 2: Now I'm probably gonna turned down my sorry input, because
- 24:50Speaker 2: you're so loud, well, because I'm mad too. Well again,
- 24:53Speaker 2: I'm going to make my plea to anyone out there
- 24:56Speaker 2: please answer the question, because I really, if there's something
- 24:59Speaker 2: to be concerned over, I'd love to talk about it.
- 25:02Speaker 2: Tell me what these people want. What have they not
- 25:07Speaker 2: addressed in this whole thing that's causing these delays. And
- 25:11Speaker 2: it doesn't bother me from a delay standpoint, because it's
- 25:14Speaker 2: gonna get done. It just bothers me from a principle.
- 25:16Speaker 3: Oh it would bother me from a delay standpoint principles
- 25:19Speaker 3: if it gets delayed. Right, this is already and I
- 25:22Speaker 3: believe this is the quote from Demani Leitch an ambitious timeline.
- 25:25Speaker 3: A delay would be an issue because then you have
- 25:27Speaker 3: to extend it mile or rather in power field.
- 25:29Speaker 4: I want I want everybody that it runs out in
- 25:31Speaker 4: twenty thirty, right, I want everybody to answer this question. Okay,
- 25:34Speaker 4: please answer this question. Did anybody in Denver? Did anybody
- 25:40Speaker 4: on this planet outside the companies that had their little
- 25:46Speaker 4: you know, green growing weed or whatever it is they
- 25:48Speaker 4: did in bird Have you ever heard anybody mentioned discuss
- 25:53Speaker 4: even lift a fingertoo quote preserve the store, no nature?
- 25:57Speaker 4: Because again, let me let me read this. It blows
- 26:01Speaker 4: my mind, dude.
- 26:02Speaker 2: And when I read these texts, I don't want to listen.
- 26:05Speaker 2: There's been a lot of gentrification in Denver. Hell, it's
- 26:09Speaker 2: happened in my old neighborhood, and I've seen it happen
- 26:11Speaker 2: over the last fifteen years. And gentrification is hard. It
- 26:15Speaker 2: hurts some people and it helps others. I get it.
- 26:18Speaker 2: This isn't about gentrification. This is about taking an area
- 26:22Speaker 2: that has not only been blighted, but an area that's
- 26:25Speaker 2: been wholly unused and turning it into something useful. It's
- 26:30Speaker 2: different than gentrification. Let me read this text, plain and simple.
- 26:34Speaker 2: This person, right, the people who have lived in that
- 26:36Speaker 2: neighborhood their whole lives, do not want to be taken
- 26:38Speaker 2: advantage of. They want to make sure they get taken
- 26:40Speaker 2: care of and not taken advantage of.
- 26:42Speaker 3: No one lives there.
- 26:43Speaker 2: What are they being taken advantage of? Exactly? How are
- 26:47Speaker 2: they being taken advantage of by having a new district
- 26:50Speaker 2: that's actually going to improve the area, improve their property values,
- 26:55Speaker 2: improve their outlook, improve what they have around them? How
- 26:58Speaker 2: is that being taken advantage of? Exactly? This is what
- 27:03Speaker 2: Here's what I.
- 27:04Speaker 4: Don't want people to think the government can come in
- 27:07Speaker 4: using eminent domain and take over your property, right. I mean,
- 27:10Speaker 4: they come in if they offer you a fair price
- 27:13Speaker 4: eminent domain. I mean, that's how you that's how you
- 27:15Speaker 4: build a four seventy all the way through on farmland
- 27:18Speaker 4: eminent domain. But they've got to give you a fair
- 27:20Speaker 4: price for the land. But they can go and take
- 27:23Speaker 4: your property. That's not what's happening here. Nobody has their
- 27:26Speaker 4: property taken. In fact, the Broncos are buying, bought everything
- 27:30Speaker 4: for crying out loud. The only issue is Denver water
- 27:32Speaker 4: and they're going to move. They've worked that out. I
- 27:35Speaker 4: just I don't I don't understand what the what the
- 27:39Speaker 4: problem here is vic I don't. I mean, if these
- 27:42Speaker 4: people really have they're holding it up for whatever reason.
- 27:44Speaker 4: What are they go at court or something or they
- 27:46Speaker 4: somebody gets what are they? What are they looking for?
- 27:48Speaker 2: I know for a fact some of the people that
- 27:50Speaker 2: are most vocal about this don't even live there. They
- 27:52Speaker 2: just represent some of the community members that live there.
- 27:54Speaker 2: And I've seen some texts here. Why don't you guys
- 27:56Speaker 2: get somebody out from the city. This isn't the city.
- 27:58Speaker 2: The city's working with Bronco, right, this city are fine.
- 28:04Speaker 2: This isn't city. It's it's community advocates what they call themselves,
- 28:10Speaker 2: who are now hiring consultants. It's it's community extortionists. It's
- 28:14Speaker 2: people that want something. And what that's something is I
- 28:16Speaker 2: don't know what it is. VIC.
- 28:17Speaker 3: It's the people that when you're watching a Broncos game
- 28:20Speaker 3: on Sunday, that are walking around outside, not in front
- 28:24Speaker 3: of their television dialed into a Broncos game. They're the
- 28:27Speaker 3: people that you can't stand on Sundays. That's who it is.
- 28:29Speaker 2: Well more and more prevalent than Denver these days. For sure,
- 28:33Speaker 2: we've become a transplant town. But that's fine. You know,
- 28:35Speaker 2: there's still plenty of Bronco fans that will go to
- 28:37Speaker 2: the games and watch the games. But in that area
- 28:40Speaker 2: to be able to clean up that area. And when
- 28:42Speaker 2: I say clean up an area that has been unused,
- 28:45Speaker 2: nobody lives there. Nobody lives in these rail yards. Nobody
- 28:49Speaker 2: lives on that turntable. Nobody's going to the locomotive UH
- 28:54Speaker 2: warehouse to check out the old locomotive. Nobody does anything there.
- 28:59Speaker 2: Calm the hell down and fix it, That's all I'm saying.
- 29:03Speaker 4: I mean, it's you've got a private entity that wants
- 29:07Speaker 4: to clean and wants to build and wants to make things,
- 29:10Speaker 4: and wants to make it more beautiful and more useful
- 29:12Speaker 4: and more everything. All right, Why wouldn't everybody be in
- 29:15Speaker 4: favor of Let me differentiate there because some of the textures.
- 29:18Speaker 4: One texture says you keep saying people don't live there,
- 29:21Speaker 4: but then you say people do. People live around around
- 29:23Speaker 4: the Burnham Yard.
- 29:24Speaker 2: They you know, there's a there's a little area around
- 29:27Speaker 2: Burnham Yard. Plenty of people live there. None of those homes,
- 29:30Speaker 2: none of those neighborhoods will be removed. There's no plans
- 29:34Speaker 2: for any of that. Those homes remain. Again, I have
- 29:39Speaker 2: relatives who live in that area. Their property value is
- 29:42Speaker 2: going to skyrocket. It's a good thing for those people.
- 29:46Speaker 2: I don't.
- 29:46Speaker 4: I don't get it. Nobody lives. There's not one, well
- 29:50Speaker 4: legally anyway, there may be. There may be crackheads who
- 29:53Speaker 4: are shooting up inside Burnam yard. Well you know what
- 29:56Speaker 4: I mean. But no, there's no homes inside the Broncos
- 29:59Speaker 4: proposed Roger your little rendering here, there's not one home
- 30:03Speaker 4: in that entire area.
- 30:05Speaker 2: Nothing.
- 30:06Speaker 3: I don't want to be like the negative Nelly here.
- 30:08Speaker 3: Do you think they released all of these renderings and right,
- 30:11Speaker 3: they're gorgeous, like if that actually happens, and it looks
- 30:13Speaker 3: like the.
- 30:13Speaker 2: Right and it may not even be that night. Most
- 30:16Speaker 2: of the time, it isn't.
- 30:16Speaker 3: When you see the renderings, it's you know, take twenty
- 30:19Speaker 3: five percent off.
- 30:19Speaker 4: Hey, jack Wagon, I'm looking at this joint over here
- 30:22Speaker 4: to your left, great point.
- 30:23Speaker 2: I'm looking at this.
- 30:24Speaker 4: New facility here, and I'm like, it's probably gonna be
- 30:26Speaker 4: nicer than we think it is. It's probably gonna be
- 30:28Speaker 4: better than we think it is. That's my guess. That's
- 30:30Speaker 4: a good point.
- 30:31Speaker 3: I should take a look at what the renderings were
- 30:34Speaker 3: for this facility and then compare contrasted with what we've
- 30:37Speaker 3: walked through.
- 30:38Speaker 2: See, this is largely different than your normal gentrification of
- 30:42Speaker 2: a city. And I'm gonna tell you the difference between
- 30:44Speaker 2: the two again, and I'm only gonna refer to where
- 30:47Speaker 2: I grew up in Denver, gentrification is you could see
- 30:50Speaker 2: it everywhere. There are old homes that are being removed
- 30:53Speaker 2: and on top of them new homes, these double stacks,
- 30:57Speaker 2: these ADUs, all this stuff that's being built people can't
- 31:00Speaker 2: afford unless you make a lot of money. That's gentrificing.
- 31:03Speaker 2: There is nothing in Burnham Yard right now. Nothing there.
- 31:06Speaker 3: There hasn't been the entire I've lived here since I
- 31:09Speaker 3: was what two years old, my entire life, there's ever
- 31:12Speaker 3: been anything there. Moj You say that you're looking at
- 31:15Speaker 3: the facility to your west right now, Yeah, it looks
- 31:19Speaker 3: better than the renderings.
- 31:20Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah it does.
- 31:22Speaker 3: That's exactly, if not slightly worse than what we're looking at.
- 31:26Speaker 2: I agree. Now, I'm sure it's going to be.
- 31:28Speaker 3: Look, I don't even know if you need to take
- 31:30Speaker 3: twenty five percent off of the renderings.
- 31:32Speaker 4: I'm just gonna say one last thing. I don't care
- 31:34Speaker 4: what you think about the Walton Penner group and so
- 31:36Speaker 4: on and so forth. Here's what I do know. These
- 31:39Speaker 4: people put their money where their mouth is and they
- 31:42Speaker 4: get stuff done. And I can guarantee you that they're
- 31:46Speaker 4: taking this obviously very seriously.
- 31:48Speaker 2: This is a multi multi billion dollar project.
- 31:51Speaker 4: But they're gonna do it right, and they're gonna do
- 31:53Speaker 4: it good, and the entire city is going to benefit
- 31:56Speaker 4: from it, not just with the Denver Broncos, but everything
- 31:59Speaker 4: that comes with the development like this, and same with
- 32:02Speaker 4: Ball Arena and the new development that's gonna go on there.
- 32:04Speaker 4: It's only good for your city and this place.
- 32:07Speaker 2: I don't. I well, not everything is good, not, you know,
- 32:10Speaker 2: And that's where what's not good. Not everything is good.
- 32:13Speaker 2: I'm talking about the extortionists looking for handouts. That's not good.
- 32:16Speaker 2: I hate no. I he're right, that's not good. Just
- 32:19Speaker 2: because this is there, it doesn't make everything good. I
- 32:21Speaker 2: have a major concern, and I said this yesterday, with
- 32:24Speaker 2: how they're gonna handle transportation in and out of that area,
- 32:27Speaker 2: because this whole, this whole approach to no cars anywhere else.
- 32:32Speaker 2: Good luck with that, good luck, good luck. You don't
- 32:35Speaker 2: live in Amsterdam here, all right, this is an Amsterdam.
- 32:38Speaker 2: No good luck.
- 32:39Speaker 3: Try telling that to DMAC again.
- 32:40Speaker 2: Good luck with game day when you have seventy eight
- 32:43Speaker 2: thousand people and you you're gonna rely on a rail stop?
- 32:48Speaker 2: Are two rail stops to bring seventy eight thousand people
- 32:50Speaker 2: in and out of there? Well, don't get me you're
- 32:52Speaker 2: right half with that. Don't get me started on that.
- 32:54Speaker 2: So that's the part that I'm like, all right, I mean,
- 32:59Speaker 2: if that's where you want to go, I don't know
- 33:00Speaker 2: how that's gonna work. Then again, you know, how does
- 33:04Speaker 2: Wrigley Field get filled up? There's no parking around there.
- 33:08Speaker 2: Have you ever been? Yeah, I've been there many times. Okay,
- 33:10Speaker 2: so where do you park? Uh? Down the street?
- 33:14Speaker 3: I mean it's a little bit of park in front
- 33:15Speaker 3: of someone's home and then you walk through the neighborhood.
- 33:18Speaker 4: They do have we do have lots there, but yeah,
- 33:22Speaker 4: I'd find a place on the street and find a
- 33:24Speaker 4: place around the corner, you know, down with four blocks
- 33:26Speaker 4: around the corner. I try to get their early bottom
- 33:28Speaker 4: line is this though, And I almost cursed, like you did, Vic.
- 33:31Speaker 4: The place right now is in I don't people, if
- 33:34Speaker 4: you really want to know, just drive over there, park
- 33:36Speaker 4: the go to the Buckhorn, have a great meal.
- 33:38Speaker 2: Look at the place. It's it's a crap hole.
- 33:41Speaker 4: Okay, And anybody who would oppose cleaning up and beautifying
- 33:46Speaker 4: a crap hole is beyond me.
- 33:49Speaker 2: And I'll leave it at that.
- 33:49Speaker 3: We'll get back into the conversation around the Broncos new
- 33:52Speaker 3: Stadium district later on in the show.
- 33:54Speaker 2: We have to I'm kind of sick of this man.
- 33:56Speaker 2: These people make me mad.
- 33:58Speaker 3: Oh, by the way, coming up at eight forty five,
- 34:00Speaker 3: I've setting up for a long day out here at
- 34:03Speaker 3: Dove Valley, expected to have a two and a half
- 34:05Speaker 3: hour practice with pads. Yet again, it's gonna be gorgeous.
- 34:08Speaker 3: If you have tickets, do not be late, get here early.
- 34:11Speaker 3: You're gonna see a heck of a practice. Vic Lombardi,
- 34:14Speaker 3: Mark Moser, Homrage filling in for Kaner on Mosa, Lombardi
- 34:17Speaker 3: and Kane. It's Altitude Sports Radio ninety two to five
- 34:20Speaker 3: Training Camp twenty twenty six, presented by Ramos law Here
- 34:23Speaker 3: on Altitude Sports Radio ninety two to five Raj alongside
- 34:27Speaker 3: Vic and Moje hanging out with you guys until ten
- 34:29Speaker 3: and then the Altitude Training Camp Show from ten to
- 34:31Speaker 3: two with d Max, Scottie Hastings, Tyler Columbus and Coach Sanford.
- 34:36Speaker 4: Yes, Moosh, we got a text her last thought on this.
- 34:39Speaker 4: You know what, I don't really want to get back
- 34:40Speaker 4: into it, but hey, from the ninety nine one, there's
- 34:42Speaker 4: nothing on you brother, quote, there's nothing wrong with in
- 34:45Speaker 4: power field. We're tearing it down. Some billionaires can just
- 34:48Speaker 4: own everything. One thing you have to understand about billionaires,
- 34:51Speaker 4: and Brett makes this point all the time. They don't rent.
- 34:54Speaker 4: They own number one, number two the least is going
- 34:59Speaker 4: to expire with the city coming up here in what
- 35:01Speaker 4: how many years? Twenty thirty, twenty thirty. Okay, it's well
- 35:05Speaker 4: within their right to build their own place without one
- 35:09Speaker 4: dime of tax payer dollars. Besides, what do you think
- 35:13Speaker 4: is going to become of the of the empower field site.
- 35:17Speaker 4: What's the city going to do with that site? There's
- 35:19Speaker 4: gonna be housing there. There will be an apartment belongs
- 35:21Speaker 4: to the buildings.
- 35:22Speaker 2: Yeah, so what used to be owned by the Metro
- 35:24Speaker 2: District will return to the city at Denver.
- 35:26Speaker 4: And the city is going to be the city despite
- 35:28Speaker 4: the stadium being torn down. The developers that come in
- 35:31Speaker 4: are going to pay the city to make that place
- 35:33Speaker 4: beautiful too. Just there's there's absolutely nothing you could explain
- 35:40Speaker 4: to me why they shouldn't proceed today.
- 35:43Speaker 3: Nothing is wrong with Empower Field at all. I think
- 35:46Speaker 3: it's a wonderful stadium to go see a game at
- 35:49Speaker 3: it is.
- 35:50Speaker 2: I don't think it's outdated.
- 35:51Speaker 3: It's not. And they poured a bunch of but they've
- 35:53Speaker 3: poured millions of dollars.
- 35:55Speaker 2: I like it. I like Empower.
- 35:57Speaker 3: I think it's the same thing that I look at
- 35:58Speaker 3: Paul Arena and I go there is nothing wrong with
- 36:00Speaker 3: ball Arena. The ownership group has poured millions of dollars
- 36:03Speaker 3: into upkeep in updating that stadium. But when I see
- 36:08Speaker 3: a place like Rogers Place in Canada, I go, oh,
- 36:12Speaker 3: I would like to have a stadium in an ice
- 36:14Speaker 3: rink that looks like that.
- 36:15Speaker 2: You just just answered the eternal question, the difference between
- 36:18Speaker 2: need and want.
- 36:20Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a want.
- 36:21Speaker 2: Yeah, there's no need for anything new here. There's no need.
- 36:24Speaker 2: You can make do for the next twenty years in
- 36:26Speaker 2: that stadium.
- 36:26Speaker 4: Hey, when you had Mile High though old Miles HIGHVIC,
- 36:28Speaker 4: there was a need, Yes, yes there was.
- 36:30Speaker 2: But the w here's the want. The want is a
- 36:34Speaker 2: Shindy U stadium. The want is a possible Super Bowl.
- 36:37Speaker 2: The want is some final fours. The want is a
- 36:40Speaker 2: retractable roof to go along with what a lot of
- 36:42Speaker 2: other stadiums are doing. And that want is why it's happening,
- 36:46Speaker 2: not the need, the want.
- 36:47Speaker 3: Will we ever have the want to replace Corsfield because
- 36:52Speaker 3: that feels like that feels like a timeless No, it's
- 36:54Speaker 3: it's a cathedral.
- 36:55Speaker 2: It's gonna be that.
- 36:57Speaker 4: That's that exact stadium is going to be around for
- 36:59Speaker 4: an off long time. It's gorgeous, it's the functionality is awesome.
- 37:04Speaker 4: Where it's built is great, and it's it's it's kept
- 37:08Speaker 4: very nice, very very very very well.
- 37:11Speaker 2: You know. Well, if there's one thing that you've got
- 37:15Speaker 2: to credit the Montforts for keeping up that stadium, it's
- 37:19Speaker 2: been beautifully done.
- 37:21Speaker 4: A last thing on this rush, I've traveled to every
- 37:24Speaker 4: arena in the National Hockey League all around obviously, and
- 37:28Speaker 4: I've been in the bowels and around of every single arena.
- 37:31Speaker 4: I can tell you all the arenas built within let's
- 37:35Speaker 4: say two three five years of ball arena.
- 37:39Speaker 3: That nineteen ninety seven to two thousand and two range.
- 37:43Speaker 2: I can tell you some of them. Some of them
- 37:45Speaker 2: are crap holes.
- 37:46Speaker 4: You can't believe the lack of upkeep in some of
- 37:50Speaker 4: these buildings where people can't see it right Ball Arena, Dude,
- 37:55Speaker 4: they work hard, they pour money into the upkeep of
- 37:58Speaker 4: that building and it shows. I can tell you right now,
- 38:01Speaker 4: we have a It's probably smaller than everybody would like,
- 38:05Speaker 4: but it's a really nice place.
- 38:07Speaker 3: Can I interest you in USA Today's twenty twenty six
- 38:10Speaker 3: NFL record projections?
- 38:12Speaker 2: Please? USA Today projecting the NFL record? Yes? Okay?
- 38:18Speaker 3: Would you like me to start with the AFC West.
- 38:20Speaker 2: Yes.
- 38:21Speaker 3: At the bottom of the AFC West projected to go
- 38:23Speaker 3: three and fourteen, The Las Vegas Raiders projected at nine
- 38:29Speaker 3: and eight, the LA Chargers, a team that likely would
- 38:32Speaker 3: miss the playoffs at nine and eight, with Justin Herbert
- 38:35Speaker 3: and him looking lovingly into his fonce Mexan peer's eyes.
- 38:39Speaker 4: They're saying nine and eight for the Chargers who won
- 38:42Speaker 4: eleven games last year and went to the postseason.
- 38:44Speaker 2: That is correct, Okay.
- 38:46Speaker 3: At eleven and six, a wild card team this year.
- 38:50Speaker 3: Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs with the arrival
- 38:53Speaker 3: of Kenneth Walker Super Bowl MVP, and at twelve and five,
- 38:57Speaker 3: which is the record that I have for the Broncos
- 38:59Speaker 3: when they came out the schedule, Denver is the number
- 39:02Speaker 3: two seed in the age.
- 39:03Speaker 2: If I gave you twelve and five today, would you
- 39:06Speaker 2: take it?
- 39:06Speaker 4: Thou streak down the field at twelve and five last
- 39:10Speaker 4: year they won fourteen, so too fewer wins and you
- 39:13Speaker 4: take it and say, thank.
- 39:14Speaker 2: God, roj, I don't do the betting. So can you
- 39:17Speaker 2: get on a betting site again?
- 39:18Speaker 4: And this very day, at seven fifty in the morning
- 39:22Speaker 4: on August fifth, tell me what the over underwind total
- 39:24Speaker 4: is for the Denver Broncos because it was nine and
- 39:26Speaker 4: a half.
- 39:26Speaker 3: It's either nine and a half or ten and a half.
- 39:28Speaker 2: And I like the over on that all day and
- 39:30Speaker 2: all night. Nine and a half.
- 39:32Speaker 4: Okay, so the over under right now for the betting public, bic,
- 39:35Speaker 4: this is the betting public is nine and a half
- 39:37Speaker 4: wins and USA today has them at twelve.
- 39:40Speaker 2: Now we have bone knicks walking the field barefoot while
- 39:43Speaker 2: snacking on something, snacking walking, eating, walking, walking, eating, snacking walking.
- 39:53Speaker 3: I want to put that to a beat, Nelly, Yeah,
- 39:56Speaker 3: drop a beat. Now, you gotta find a way to
- 39:58Speaker 3: put that to a beat. Clip that in the break.
- 40:01Speaker 3: Put it to a beat, because I'm I'm gonna bug
- 40:03Speaker 3: you to it at some point I think twelve and
- 40:06Speaker 3: five is very doable. If you get through the first
- 40:08Speaker 3: six weeks at three and three, If if you get
- 40:10Speaker 3: through at four and two, I think you're staring down
- 40:12Speaker 3: a number one seed. Twelve and five might be the
- 40:15Speaker 3: one seed in the AFC.
- 40:16Speaker 2: Could be in amazing How perspective matters. I mean last
- 40:21Speaker 2: year you go fourteen to three and you think, wow,
- 40:25Speaker 2: how did we get here? How did how did they
- 40:27Speaker 2: host throughout the entire playoff run? You can have a
- 40:31Speaker 2: worse record, you can have a worse seed, and yet
- 40:34Speaker 2: you could be a better team.
- 40:35Speaker 3: Well, we've we've talked about on the more some sort
- 40:37Speaker 3: of regression, and the Broncos in terms of record, will
- 40:40Speaker 3: all have some sort of regression. The Abs aren't gonna
- 40:42Speaker 3: have one hundred and twenty one point season. I think
- 40:44Speaker 3: the Nuggets are going to struggle a little bit more
- 40:47Speaker 3: than they did last year. I don't think it's a
- 40:49Speaker 3: cliff is coming for any one of these teams, But
- 40:53Speaker 3: in terms of their win loss records, I don't think
- 40:56Speaker 3: any one of these three teams exceed what they did
- 40:58Speaker 3: last year.
- 40:59Speaker 4: Okay, I mean it's gonna be hard for the Avs
- 41:01Speaker 4: because they had the best regular season they've ever had.
- 41:03Speaker 3: They're not gonna have one hundred and twenty one points.
- 41:05Speaker 4: That's exactly right. But I'm looking at the AFC last year.
- 41:08Speaker 4: You had one, two, three, four five. You had five
- 41:13Speaker 4: teams with twelve or more win, Jags with thirteen and four. Yes,
- 41:17Speaker 4: you had five teams with with twelve or more wins,
- 41:21Speaker 4: including your Broncos and the Patriots both at fourteen and three.
- 41:24Speaker 4: So I guess my question is, is the AFC gonna
- 41:27Speaker 4: get that much more difficult? Is that what we're talking about?
- 41:30Speaker 4: Is it gonna be an absolute nightmare of a of
- 41:33Speaker 4: a conference this year? I think it's already pretty damn tough,
- 41:36Speaker 4: But you know, I mean Houston went twelve and five,
- 41:39Speaker 4: Jags went thirteen and four, Buffalo was twelve and five,
- 41:42Speaker 4: Patriots fourteen and three, obviously, the Broncos fourteen and three,
- 41:44Speaker 4: and then the Chargers there if you want to throw
- 41:46Speaker 4: them in. That's an eleven win football team, which is
- 41:48Speaker 4: which is a good season, and they made the postseason.
- 41:51Speaker 3: I'm convinced the AFC South is not one with thirteen games.
- 41:55Speaker 3: I think it's one with eleven or twelve, because if
- 41:57Speaker 3: you get a full season out of Daniel Jones with
- 42:00Speaker 3: the Colts. That is a better team than eight and nine,
- 42:03Speaker 3: especially with how good their rushing attack is. I think
- 42:05Speaker 3: the one seed in the AFC comes out of the
- 42:08Speaker 3: East simply because of how terrible the bottom of that
- 42:11Speaker 3: division is with Miami in New York. Whoever wins that
- 42:14Speaker 3: battle between Buffalo in New England, I think that's your
- 42:18Speaker 3: buye in the AFC.
- 42:19Speaker 2: Okay, I watch Bonnicks continue to walk now, striding now,
- 42:23Speaker 2: long strides, now, arms at the hips, striding along the field.
- 42:28Speaker 2: Here walking the width of the field, not the length
- 42:31Speaker 2: of the field. As I watch him walk, I reference
- 42:35Speaker 2: a set of stats by Warren Sharp. Okay, quarterback record
- 42:40Speaker 2: when trailing entering the fourth quarter last season. Who had
- 42:44Speaker 2: the best record in the NFL ling while entering the
- 42:48Speaker 2: fourth quarter bonickx Bonnicks was four and one, No one
- 42:52Speaker 2: even as close. The next closest was Daniel Jones who
- 42:55Speaker 2: was three and three. Caleb Williams was four and five,
- 42:59Speaker 2: Jordan two and three. You can go on and on.
- 43:02Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers is one in four when trailing going into
- 43:05Speaker 2: the fourth quarter last year. Baker Mayfield was zero to seven. Wow,
- 43:09Speaker 2: So is that a what is that Patrick Mahomes, by
- 43:14Speaker 2: the way, was one in six when trailing going into
- 43:17Speaker 2: the fourth quarter. Is that an offshoot? Is that a trend?
- 43:21Speaker 2: What is that?
- 43:23Speaker 4: How do you well, we've talked about the Broncos season
- 43:26Speaker 4: last year and all the one score wins and so on.
- 43:29Speaker 2: In the comeback boy Justin Herbert was one in five. Yeah,
- 43:32Speaker 2: when training going to the fourth quarter. Uh. The fact
- 43:35Speaker 2: of the matter is there's a talent. There's an act
- 43:37Speaker 2: to that Dick. There is.
- 43:38Speaker 4: What we're going to find out this year and we're
- 43:41Speaker 4: gonna find out in the future is whether or not
- 43:42Speaker 4: that was an anomaly, Whether it was an anomaly, or
- 43:46Speaker 4: whether this is what this guy's makeup truly is because
- 43:50Speaker 4: they got a little bit fortunate. Again, how do you
- 43:54Speaker 4: explain the Philadelphia Eagles with that lead and they won't
- 43:58Speaker 4: give the football to say, quad, refuse to put the
- 44:01Speaker 4: ball in his hands, refuse to run the ball. It's
- 44:04Speaker 4: hurts trying to force the ball downfield to allow the
- 44:06Speaker 4: Broncos back into the game.
- 44:08Speaker 2: Now, is that on bon Nicks?
- 44:09Speaker 4: I guess it is, because when he got the football
- 44:11Speaker 4: in his hand, he led him The scores that the
- 44:13Speaker 4: New York Giants pick have a nineteen point lead, right,
- 44:17Speaker 4: and and in the Broncos put up thirty three points
- 44:22Speaker 4: in the fourth quarter because the Giants screwed a lot
- 44:25Speaker 4: of stuff up, all right, So I'm just saying that
- 44:27Speaker 4: there are mitigating circumstances, but there's also a knack as
- 44:30Speaker 4: skill and a will.
- 44:32Speaker 2: To all of that. Top of your head, what are
- 44:34Speaker 2: the games He's four and one when trailing going into
- 44:36Speaker 2: the fourth? Obviously that game, the Giants game. The Philly
- 44:39Speaker 2: game was another one.
- 44:41Speaker 3: What about the the Getans game, the Jets game?
- 44:43Speaker 2: The Jets.
- 44:45Speaker 4: I'd have to look at that, but I that was, yeah,
- 44:47Speaker 4: I think they were I was super ugly.
- 44:49Speaker 2: Have to look at it.
- 44:50Speaker 3: Were they trailing going into the fourth against the Commanders?
- 44:54Speaker 2: I can't remember. I can't remember that was it?
- 44:57Speaker 3: That was a bad bow game in the first half, right,
- 45:00Speaker 3: they may have been trailing going into the fourth quarter
- 45:02Speaker 3: in that game.
- 45:03Speaker 2: We've got three of them for sure. There was one
- 45:05Speaker 2: more in there that your trailing going into the fourth.
- 45:10Speaker 3: And Denver was leading the fourth in the Washington game,
- 45:16Speaker 3: what how.
- 45:16Speaker 2: Their game was? Then? What about Philly? The Jets? What
- 45:19Speaker 2: about the Green Bay game? The Giants Philly? There's three
- 45:21Speaker 2: in a row. There Philly Jets, Giants. Check that Jets.
- 45:24Speaker 2: Now they had to lead in that one to twenty
- 45:26Speaker 2: seven to twenty three.
- 45:27Speaker 3: You want mean, checked the Jets game where they won thirteen.
- 45:29Speaker 2: To trying to make sure that that game that they were.
- 45:33Speaker 3: Denver was trailing by one point going into the third.
- 45:36Speaker 3: They won that game thirteen they were trailing against the Jets.
- 45:40Speaker 2: Remember that game. That game was just deadly. That game
- 45:42Speaker 2: was eleven to ten.
- 45:43Speaker 4: It was eleven to ten Jets, eleven to ten Jets
- 45:45Speaker 4: going into the fourth. What a horrible football game. I
- 45:48Speaker 4: can't believe. I can't believe that we inflicted that on
- 45:51Speaker 4: the people of England. I mean not that they don't
- 45:54Speaker 4: deserve it. I'm just saying that, God, if you want
- 45:56Speaker 4: to mess up a country, send that send that football
- 45:59Speaker 4: game to their to their shores, and let and have
- 46:01Speaker 4: them pay big money at Wembley to watch that game, talk.
- 46:04Speaker 2: About them or wherever the hell they were at.
- 46:06Speaker 3: In atrocious performance from the offense that day, Bo was
- 46:10Speaker 3: nineteen of thirty for one hundred and seventy one yards.
- 46:12Speaker 3: Now did not throw any interceptions in that game and
