Hey boys! Long time no comment. Stoked to hear about the new DNVR home. Planning on a trip out there this year. Quick question, my friends and I are trying to have a little fun and start a podcast. What equipment do you use or recommend for a beginner?
On a broncos note GO BRONCOS

Guys, hate to break it to you, but Rocky Mountain Oysters (my menu suggestion for the DNVR bar) has nothing to do with Oysters! Check it out! Cannot wait to hear your reactions…
Love from Germany

Hey friends. You 3 working @ a sports bar just doesn’t sound like a good plan, good luck children with that! As an NFL fan, I would love to know that there will be 11 years of labor peace and football/Broncos!!! At the end of that, I’ll be 78 years old, so by then I might not need another CBA to enjoy my luv of the NFL? 🙂 GO DENVER/DNVR BAR/DALTON/DREW

RK, happy belated birthday my friend. I wish you many many more. Perhaps even 75 more!
Congrats fellas on the DNVRBAR! So stoked for you and for the listeners of DNVR. I’ve made a trip out to a Broncos game the last 3 years and this coming year I’ll be able to go to DNVRBAR rather than sports column or BST. I can already tell it’s going to feel like home. Hell, rather than going to Sams no.3 for breakfast I might go have a brew for breakfast. Love y’all!

Convincing my girlfriend to go on a trip to Denver was much easier than expected. Who knows you may even get a visit from the original bromance! Speaking of love. Y’all mentioned watch parties any chance we can get some bachelor ones?!
You all are taking over the city. Next comes the state. The nation will soon know where to get there denver sports info. Keep up that incredible work boys you inspire me everyday!

I have an amazing talent of missing the cut off by one from the previous day… well, not today!
The Coronavirus is a massive economic killer right now. I live in the Coachella Valley (greater Palm Springs, CA area) we are the home of the BNP Paribas tennis tournament that was recently canceled, The ANA Inspiration (in talks to be canceled or moved), Home of The Coachella Music and Arts Festival aka CoachellaFest and Stagecoach, both of which are being postponed half a year until October. That’s estimated at roughly ~$500 Million worth of income that is just gone. Several small businesses depend on that money and are in panic mode right now. I wish locals would flock to them that rather than the water and tolitpaper that THEY DON’T NEED.
Okay Rant over.
On another note I am so F****** proud of DNVR. Congrats on the DNVR Bar! I have stated on previous pods I am a former radio broadcaster but never mentioned I was politiced out of a job (isn’t that how it always goes?), however I’ve been with this podcast through the early BSN incarnations. When you win, I feel like we all win and with everything that I’ve mentioned earlier, we all really need a win right now.
Congrats to everyone in BSN/DNVR history!

Hey guys,
What do you think is the worst case scenario for the Broncos in this draft? I’d argue that it would be hard for us to screw up our first pick especially since we’re destined to have at least one elite player to fall to us. Although with our second there’s a few possibilities for failure. I mean any player couldn’t work out, but what would be an off the wall pick while other players/needs still might be on the board?

Hey Guys,
Congrats on the DNVR bar! What an amazing idea! I’m sure you will be wildly successful. I will be a newlywed this year on my visit to Denver and I most certainly want to grab a strawberry sky with you all as I’m sure my new wife will be excited as well as she listens too. Please consider adding 805 and DBA to your tap so we can share our native beers with each other, that would be so cool! Just a thought, why not make a wall in the bar dedicated to your subscribers and put our screen names on the wall!
Once again so happy for you guys, it’s well deserved and a tremendously good idea.

Ryan, your thoughts on the Bachelor finale?
Barb is crazy AF!!! I know how Peter treated Hannah Ann with the engagement was very not okay but man she almost resented him for having feelings for someone else! Like Madison was the most Wholesome and genuine girl on the show and somebody that I feel like everybody’s mother would be proud for their son to bring home!!
It’s almost like Barb thought she would change Peter and challenge him to be a better person but she liked the way peter was already. Very petty to say right on stage that they wouldn’t last and be so mad about it when her son was clearly happy! Also why tf am I here talking about the bachelor lol! This is my girlfriends fault for getting me so roped in

I may have spent an hour that I should have spent cleaning the house, looking for Mase’s Burner account. Something is dreadfully wrong with me.

Hey guys first of all congratulations on the bar! Sounds awesome and I can’t wait to plan a trip from Phoenix to come check it out! Just a couple questions so I will make this short. Question 1, since free agency starts soon who will be the first player that the Broncos sign? Not necessarily who you want them to sign but who Elway will sign. Question 2, even with all the cap space available do you think they will struggle bringing in players because of the last 4 years? Thanks as always you guys are the best.
NZ Zack
Mase, Zac. Kia Ora! You were both thinking correctly with the NZ. Born and raised in the Far North near The Bay of Islands. Amazing seafood from game fish to shell fish we have it all there and in my opinion the best water, a debate from last off season.
I Moved to Adelaide to be closer to work, 8 years later im still here.
Kitchen time, Zac using a butter knife or spoon to help remove the contents from the toaster is just fine…
But please turn it off first and remove the power plug! Solution solved.
Broncos time, Cut one and or trade, pay one and franchise tag one.
Offence; Phillip Lindsay, Dalton Risner and Courtland Sutton.
Defence; Bradley Chub, Justin Simmons and Kareem Jackson.
Real quick would the DNVR bar consider travelling employees for someone like myself who wants to do a snow season abroad.
Thanks for the great and ongoing content, Zackary.
Denveria
Guys, is it true that the Nuggets occasionally show a picture of Tom Brady when their opponent has free throws to increase the booing? Just saw a post about it on NFL Memes. Hilarious.

For me, sugar sauce ruins the meat. When I smoke, I start with good meat (preferably meat I watched grow up) I do a simple pepper rub, and then low and slow. A vinager sauce on pork is nice because it cuts the richness. I do not understand the appeal of sugar sauce though.

Mase I feel you on having no love for pancakes. There’s this place here in Texas called Dove Creek Cafe with pancakes the size of the plate! My favorite is the cinnamon roll one.
Keep the pancake dream alive Mase!
Hey guys it’s cool to see some subscribers talk about music. Hah I actually once played bass in a metal band, but now I have a genuine love for piano and keys. Maybe y’all need to get a piano in your bar? I’m sure we can get RK a singin and strumming 🙂 have a great day everyone.
And honey and homemade almond milk is by far the best things to have with coffee, egg nog can kick rocks. Hah jk

Yesterday I got looking back at my pictures from training camp a couple years ago and it baffles me how intimidating Derek Wolfe is. I hands down said he’s the scariest person I’ve ever seen in person. In your guys opinion who’s the most intimidating player you’ve talked too? And to take the easy answer out I’m taking Wolfe off the list.
Thanks guys!

Before Mr. Stevens gets down the ‘Derrick Henry to Denver’ Rabbithole we as a community need to ban together to stop this madness.
Paying running backs big second contracts is absolutely insanity.
In a league trending towards more and more to a passing league, paying over 10 million for a running back with heavy mileage and usage is like paying more for a used car as opposed to one off the lot.
Running Backs DO NOT MATTER. (however running games do)
The highest correlation to run game success is field position and defensive players in the box.
Running backs, despite their flash plays, are actually one of the lowest impact variables on run games. Blocking, personnel package, and scheme have a far greater impact on run game success and efficiency than running backs. They are easily replaceable, found everywhere throughout the draft, and are at their peak performance on their rookie contract when their usage and milage is relatively low.
Here are the highest paid 2nd contract backs… all of which have come w/ cap ramifications and regret
1) Zeke Elliott (losing one of Byron Jones, Amari Cooper who offer WAY more value)
2) Todd Gurley (Degenerative knee, looking to be traded)
3) Le’Veon Bell (already being shopped)
4) David Johnson (washed. Zona may have to give up draft capital to move him)
5) Devonta Freeman (likely cut)
6) Jerick McKinnon (hasn’t even seen the field since new contract iirc)
Mike Shanahan had it right when it came to backs.
– Draft them (or find them as undrafted players… CJ Anderson and Phillip Lindsay…)
– Use them up over their first contract
– Let them walk (unless they are willing to take a short low APY contract…)
– Repeat
Here are some references for those interested in the data supporting Running Backs and their lack of value:

Hey Guys promise this the last comments ill give about PFF for a while but im curious as to why do sport writers and teams like them if they have biased opinions when they should be numbers driven …. They knock drew lock but Mase… Ur accurate THEY LOVED WILL GRIER …. But before he got to start pff made excuses saying he was going into a bad situation and wasn’t being given a real opportunity and they fear its going to hurt his career …No his career eas hurt cuz he SUCKED !!! FOH !! Drew lock came into a ideal situation?? smh foh …. …. They said Harold Landry was a better prospect then Bradley Chubb before the 2018 draft …Chubb with a whole missed season has better stats then Harold landry in two years … . They love baker now the Nfl is unsure about baker …..and lastly which i feel is so unfair they were knocking Shaq barret to say that he doesn’t deserve a big contract that the only reason he got those sacks is cus he played all snaps and had more opportunities ……and im sorry but THEY ARE SUCH DOUCHE BAGS WHEN THEY GIVE THEIR SNARKY REMARKS !!! .. so im curious as to why the media and teams give them so much credibility and light because they abuse the notariety they have gained ?

Hey guys! Congrats on the bar! Let’s hope that the future holds DNVR Stadium at Mile High!
I wanted to ask a question that I have always wondered about NFL “insiders”. How do people like Adam Schefter and Ian Rapaport become “trusted insiders” that seemingly get the news first? Why do “sources” leak the news to them? Do they pay their sources under the table or what? Lol
OnionTownLynx
Well, how ya doing guys?!
TheRealLynx is dead, and in his place I have risen from the soil.
This move has been very stressful and I’m still looking for work but not a lot of success has come my way. It’s harder in small towns, really. Anyways, Football!
1. I was shocked when I moved and THE DNVbar suddenly showed up. I lived in Utah just a month ago and now I can’t come back over a weekend to see it, as I am living in Washington State. You guys seem to always have a few tricks up your sleeve. Well done!
2. Goodness! Did John acquire a piece for this team?! I got so used to everyone talking about how much talent Denver would be losing and how it feels impossible to get any new talent on the team I guess I lost hope a little. I think I was feeling off-base slightly. Bouye am looking forward to 2020!
3. Mr B.
4. Zac, I totally agree that audiobooks change your life. I never read until I used audiobooks. It just helps… I believe that voice and dynamics the readers use make it simple to be able to do more than just hear the words. Also, I can’t stand to look and black and white shapes like that which you’re reading right now for more than 10 minutes.
5. Do any of you know who the Broncos are looking at for undrafted talent? Any names we should keep an eye out for?
6. I personally love any of the top 4 receivers with the 15 in this draft. Give me Ruggs, Jeudy, Lamb, or Shenault. I don’t care! As far as I’m concerned, we have a highly dynamic OC who can turn out a productive offense just so long as he wants to. This thing is going places.
Well, guys, it’s been a rough month. Moving is never easy but this one was harder because it’s the only one I’ve ever done alone. Thanks for keeping me sane with the constant of great content every damn day. You hear it a lot, but you truly are the ONLY media company I can call great. No exaggeration there, just honest truth. Have a great day!

Von, Aquib, Drew, John, Risner, Lindsay
