Denverse Stories: Between Eagle and Basketball

Derek Kessinger and Quinn Marchman — Mon, 10 Feb 2020 14:00:00 -0700

We recorded this episode a couple of days after Kobe Bryant's passing. I'm editing this now a couple of weeks later, having listened to it again for the first time. I have a lot of apprehension about releasing this episode because it is such a hard topic to cover. There are so many different angles and people have such strong emotions, both positively and negatively, about Kobe Bryant. That's also why I thought it was important to release this episode. When we decided to do the Denverse podcast, I thought it wanted to start having conversations in different ways. I feel like this episode brings up a lot of complicated angles to Kobe Bryant's legacy. Our attempt may be imperfect. It may not say everything that I would like for it to say, but it is a raw, conversation done with the best of intentions. Thank you for listening to the Denverse. —Derek

Don't Stop Lock Now, We're Having Such a Good Time (12-5-19)

Derek Kessinger and Quinn Marchman — Thu, 05 Dec 2019 03:00:00 -0700

The Denver Nuggets loss to the Los Angeles Lakers highlighted the problem areas for Denver right now. Rookie Drew Lock started for the Broncos—should we worry about his self-proclaimed arrogance? College football ends for CU and CSU. The Avalanche cannot be stopped.

Not Good for My Sleep or Health in General (11-14-19)

Derek Kessinger and Quinn Marchman — Thu, 14 Nov 2019 04:00:00 -0700

The Colorado Avalanche seem to have made a pact that traded injuries for wins. Would adding Chauncey Billups have helped the Altitude negotiations? The reason Tad Boyle might eventually leave Colorado. The Broncos have QB Drew Lock back at practice but are not locked into playing him. Overhyped man Jeremy Grant is not yet ready to start for the Nuggets. It turns out none of the reserves are ready to start for the Nuggets. Really, there’s a lot in this episode about the Nuggets and not being that impressed with them. Also, Derek is sad about Ralphie V retiring because she’s too fast.

Denverse Stories: An Avalanche of Memories in the Rafters

Derek Kessinger and Quinn Marchman — Tue, 12 Nov 2019 04:00:00 -0700

The history of the Colorado Avalanche owes so much to the six players whose numbers the Avs have retired. Joe Sakic, Peter Forsberg, Milan Hejduk, Patrick Roy and Ray Bourque are the story of the franchise since the team moved from Quebec in 1995. This brief history looks at each member's contribution to the team. This is a great introduction or trip down memory lane for all Avs fans.

Note: A correction on player’s draft years. Matt Duchene was drafted (not signed) in 2009, Gabe Landeskog in 2011 and Nathan MacKinnon in 2013.

Our Only Culture Used to be John Elway (11-7-19)

Derek Kessinger and Quinn Marchman — Thu, 07 Nov 2019 04:00:00 -0700

The only podcast that has both a John Elway tribute and also seriously questions John Elway.

The 7 Minute recap of the week in Denver Sports (1:56). It ended up being a 15-minute recap. The Broncos won! But was it good for the team's long-term outlook(15:45)? Finally seeing the real Denver Nuggets (24:55). The Avalanche are in a deep slide without signs of turning things around (30:10).

Lock is Twiddling His Now Healthy Thumbs (10-31-19)

Derek Kessinger and Quinn Marchman — Thu, 31 Oct 2019 04:00:00 -0600

After a few weeks off, the podcast returns to rejoin the Denverse. There is a vast gap between the best teams (Nuggets and Avs) and the worst teams (Buffs, Rockies and Broncos).

The Nuggets are 3-1, but we all need to temper our early season enthusiasm. The Avalanche readjust after losing Landeskog (11:50). The Rockies lose some longtime players (20:45)/ The Broncos are in free fall (24:45). Special appearance by Cricket the dog (26:50).

Hey Avs, the Broncos and Rockies Make Me Sad (10-3-19)

Derek Kessinger — Thu, 03 Oct 2019 05:00:00 -0600

The Broncos are as bad as their record. The Colorado Buffaloes take on the Arizona Wildcats (5:30) Colorado Rockies had a disastrous press conference (6:30) that included talk of their strange new TV deal (7:30) and General Manager Jeff Bridich can't define the term rebuilding and admits to the “Bridich opt-out” in Nolan Arenado’s contract (9:00). The Nuggets started training and Michael Malone tortured everyone (12:50). And an Avalanche season preview (13:40).

I’m ready for the Winter (9/26/19)

Derek Kessinger and Quinn Marchman — Thu, 26 Sep 2019 05:00:00 -0600

Derek breaks down the Broncos loss to the Green Bay Packers (1:00), the next three “winnable” games and the major issues with the Broncos through three weeks (4:40). CU with a rare road win over a ranked opponent (10:40). The Mikko Rantanen situation with the Colorado Avalanche (12:30). Aaron joins Derek to talk about the Rockies (15:30). Where should the Rockies go? (22:00) What about the baseballs? (30:00).

Right Now There is No Culture (9-19-19)

Derek Kessinger and Quinn Marchman — Thu, 19 Sep 2019 04:00:00 -0600

Derek and Quinn work backward to try to figure out how the Broncos lost again. Can the Broncos now move forward? The problem isn’t Joe Flacco and it’s not Emmanuel Sanders. The Colorado Buffaloes fell to the Air Force Falcons (17:00). Air Force is the best team in Colorado. Basketball’s “world supremacy” ends (19:00). And finally, some optimism—in Colorado Avalanche training camp.

Win in the Weight Room (9/12/19)

Derek Kessinger and Quinn Marchman — Thu, 12 Sep 2019 04:00:00 -0600

The Denver Broncos lost to Oakland for their Monday Night Opener. Between the players and the coaches, Quinn and Derek try to find some optimism. The epic tale of the Buffs overcoming a deficit against Nebraska (15:00). The Rockies are no fun—they used to be though (21:30). The FIBA World Cup is feeble except for Juancho Hernangomez (26:00) and a brief discussion of 9/11 and why we do this podcast (33:06).

The Realistic (But Not Optimistic) Broncos Season Preview

Derek Kessinger and Quinn Marchman — Sun, 08 Sep 2019 13:20:00 -0600

Quinn and Derek breakdown new coach Vic Fangio, Joe Flacco, the roster depth problem and the difficult schedule.

The episode ends with a twist on the season predictions:

The Broncos are 4-12 if...

The Broncos are 8-8 if...

The Broncos are a playoff team if...

As Quinn says, "the Broncos don't need x-factors they just need factors."

Empower Field at the Denverse

Derek Kessinger and Quinn Marchman — Thu, 05 Sep 2019 05:00:00 -0600

I went to the last Rocky Mountain showdown, which was a success for the Colorado Buffaloes (1:00) Next up, CU will try to upset Nebraska. The Colorado Rockies are still on the hunt for their four wins in September to avoid 100 losses. Ian Desmond pitched a scoreless inning and then hit a home run against the Dodgers (8:00) A quick update on the FIBA World Cup, featuring Nikola Jokic (10:00). Bol Bol has signed a two-way contract with the Nuggets (13:30).

Avalanche rookie camp starts this weekend (16:15). Hockey season is almost here! The Broncos finalized their roster. Who is the Broncos backup quarterback? (17:30). Also, Empower Field at Mile High Stadium, it’s new Denver (21:00).

Altitude TV is off the air…forever? (24:15). I forgot to mention that Fox Sports is also a player in regional sports networks. Finally, we’re sad to see Adam Mares and Brendan Vogt leave Denver Stiffs. We can’t wait to see what’s next for the pair.

Check out our Broncos preview episode coming out on Sunday!

Rockies Slide Before Training Camp

Derek Kessinger and Quinn Marchman — Wed, 17 Jul 2019 14:30:00 -0600

The Colorado Rockies are falling out of the Wild Card picture. Chicago correspondent Aaron Davidson calls in to talk about the Rockies struggles, Broncos training camp and the Nuggets.

After a heartbreaking homestand for the Colorado Rockies, where do they go from here? Derek and Aaron discuss Coors Field, the Rockies pitching and longterm plans for the Rockies. Plus, Derek explains his Daniel Murphy nickname.

Then Aaron and Derek discuss the sliding interest in the Denver Broncos and the Nuggets very good summer.

Summer League in a Loser’s Town

Derek Kessinger and Quinn Marchman — Sat, 13 Jul 2019 10:30:00 -0600

Derek and Quinn traveled to watch the Nuggets play in Vegas. The 36-hour trip to see the summer league roster was full of interesting stories, but the basketball was lacking.

Then they turned their attention to the Nuggets acquisition of Jerami Grant from the Oklahoma City Thunder and the tectonic shifts in the NBA’s Western Conference (13:00).
