What do you think about Carmelo Anthony's arrest on suspicion of DUI?

Does it matter any more or any less than when anyone else gets arrested for the same thing? He apologized to the fans and the Nuggets organization just hours after he was pulled over.

Carmelo Anthony's blood test results won't be back for several days. He has been released and ordered to appear in court in the middle of May.

What is your opinion about this. What should happen?

The Colorado Rockies are back in Denver for their home opener. They'll get to play this season with the National League Championship Pennant waving in the wind at Coors Field.

Here's your chance to send the team or your favorite players a message of good luck... or start some some trash talk with fans of other teams. How do you think the Rockies will do this year?

The Denver Broncos have laid off eight front office employees, and they have not replaced a fired general manager and two departed assistant coaches.

Why? Team owners say it's because of the current labor deal the NFL has with the players and the sagging economy.

NFL Films has laid off 21 employees. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell says more teams will face layoffs, just like the Broncos.

Broncos owner Pat Bowlen told the Rocky Mountain News, "The problem really is the players are getting too big a slice of the pie, so we're having to cut back in some other areas." He also said not all of the staff decisions were made for economic reasons.

What do you think... do you agree or disagree with Bowlen? Do professional athletes make too much money?

The NCAA Basketball Tournament begins this week in Denver and other places around the country.

That means it's time for the March Madness office pools.

Some employers have expressed concern about lost productivity because of workers trying to watch the games and participating in pools to try to make money.

Technically, office pools are illegal if they involve the exchange of money because it is gambling. Should they be illegal? Are office pools a big problem for employers?

Wednesday is showdown day on Capitol Hill as Congress turns its attention to steroids in baseball. Roger Clemens is due to square off against his former personal trainer, Brian McNamee, who has told federal prosecutors that he injected Clemens with steroids and human growth hormone.

Just ahead of today's congressional showdown, it leaked out that former New York Yankee teammate Andy Pettitte has told Congress in a sworn affidavit that Roger Clemens talked in

1999 or 2000 about using human growth hormone. In Clemens' defense, former major leaguer Jose Canseco told Congress in a sworn affidavit that he has never seen Clemens "use, possess or ask for steroids or human growth hormone."

What do you think about this? Should Congress be involved? What will the results of these baseball steroids hearings be in your opinion?

A church in Washington, D.C. is not allowed to have their annual Super Bowl party because the NFL pulled the plug.

The NFL says that airing games at churches on large screen TV's violates the NFL copyright on the game.

The same policy affects movie theaters, large halls and other venues with big screen TV's.

Bars that normally have big screens in place year-round are exempt from the rule.

What do you think? Should the NFL make an exception to the rule so that organizations such as churches can have Super Bowl gatherings?

The Mitchell steroid report names dozens of current and former players who are accused of using steroids and other performance enhancing drugs.

The players include 7 MVPs, 31 All-Stars, and 12 players with ties to the Colorado Rockies.

Do you think the Mitchell report will change steroid and performance enhancing drug use in baseball and other sports?

NEW YORK (AP) -- Jimmy Rollins won the National League MVP award
in a close race over the Colorado Rockies' Matt Holliday today,
boosted by speed and steady all-around play that drove the
Philadelphia Phillies to their first playoff berth in 14 years.
The Gold Glove shortstop received 16 of 32 first-place votes and
finished with 353 points in balloting by the Baseball Writers'
Association of America.
Holliday, who led Colorado's surprising charge to the World
Series, was the runner-up with 11 first-place votes and 336 points.
Milwaukee slugger Prince Fielder came in third, with five
first-place votes and 284 points.
Holliday, the NL championship series MVP, hit .340 with 137
RBIs.
He's the third player since 1967 to lead a league in both
categories.

-----------

DO YOU THINK HOLLIDAY SHOULD HAVE WON?

Denver Broncos wide receiver Rod Smith's hip isn't recovering fast enough and he won't
be activated this season. 

Smith returned to practice last week for the first time since having surgery on his hip in the offseason. The Broncos had until Nov. 14 to either place Smith on the 53-man roster or put him on the reserve/physically unable to perform list, ending his season. 

 

DO YOU THINK HE SHOULD RETIRE?

The World Series didn't work out the way the Colorado Rockies and the team's fans hoped it would.

Colorado pulled off an incredible run to get to the World Series that will be hard for any pro sports team to match.

WHAT MESSAGE DO YOU HAVE FOR THE ROCKIES AND BASEBALL FANS ABOUT THIS EXPERIENCE?

A number of explanations and theories are out there about what happened that made it so that the Colorado Rockies ticket sales computer system failed to work Monday.

The Rockies say the system was the target of a "malicious external attack."

WHO DO YOU BLAME FOR THE FIASCO?

The team will restart online-only World Series ticket sales at noon Tuesday.
