Many players and staffers don't feel safe. They have no say in safety. Is trying to play college football this season anything other than a money grab? coloradoan.com/story/sports/…

Absolutely speechless. An insane March Madness game. The play design to get Lake open was incredible and ONIONS to hit it.
Derik Queen (yes, it's a travel, but that's never getting called there) with a fabulous finish. Game of the tournament.
Heartbreak for CSU. What a run

Isaiah Stevens is the best-ever for the Colorado State men's basketball team. Because of what he did on the court. Because of what he did off it. Because of the standard he set. Because he stayed. No. 4 in the rafters must be next.

Really cool thing coming to Canvas Stadium this fall. There will be a doubleheader of city high school football matchups on Sept. 30. Poudre vs. Rocky Mountain first, Fossil Ridge vs. Fort Collins nightcap. Kudos to PSD/CSU/Canvas for making this happen. Should be awesome event.

Poudre lost Friday's @CHSAA playoff opener, but that didn't matter. Friday was for junior Josh Cortez, who died in a car crash less than 24 hours before the game. “He loved being out here with us. He’s a cheerful, happy guy."
