@VicLombardi Studham is putting on a show!!

@VicLombardi @Broncos As long as Waltons are paying, (not us) Burnham yards site is a win-win-win. We keep Broncos in Denver, bring jobs and revitalization to a dead part of the city, and have a deep pockets, third-party pay for it along with all the environmental remediation 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

@classic_film So many good ones I can actually get! I’m going w number 18 by The Hollies called Bus Stop. I like to think that fictional rainy days relationship took but who knows?

[Mark Cavanaugh @MarkCavanaugh3]

@classic_film My fave Sanders movie is Journey to Italy. He made everything he was in better

@PrezWisdom @IkeLibrary @MountVernon @USGrantLibrary Brutal choice. All 3 are at the top not just as extraordinary military leaders but leaders of honor, integrity & character. I go w Washington. We know him the least but he personally risked the most though amazing deprivations over nearly a decade of his life. GW was the man👊🏼

@doranka @jim_benemann 👍🏼 answer. We also have a higher eduction system that despite efforts to underfund, undermine & destroy it remains the envy of the world.

But if certain shortsighted looneys choose to cut research funding & the grants that put college within reach of all — it will die 🤷🏼‍♂️

@classic_film He was the best Bob Cratchit around IMO!

[Mark Cavanaugh @MarkCavanaugh3]

@DMacSportsCO Worst “catch” call I’ve seen this season. Blatant nonsense. It really kinda ruins the game for me

[Mark Cavanaugh @MarkCavanaugh3]

@classic_film Also loved NBCs “The Mystery Movie” which spawned our irascible doc of the dead — Quincy!

[Mark Cavanaugh @MarkCavanaugh3]

Less time, more triple-double play. Is he the best. Yep. Give him another MVP? Yep.

[NBA History @NBAHistory]

Four straight triple-doubles while playing less than 36 minutes in each game.

Nikola Jokić is the first player in NBA history to do it.

[SportsCenter @SportsCenter]

Nikola Jokic just dropped the SECOND-EVER 35/20/15 game in NBA history 😮

Wilt Chamberlain dropped the first one in 1968.

[Mark Cavanaugh @MarkCavanaugh3]

@classic_film Both quippy and fun. Both ladies men and perennially “on the make. But if I had an acute appendicitis I’d sure rather have Hawkeye (named for 14th Pres. Pierce) on the case. Hawkeye put medicine first & ladies second. I got the sense Doc Bricker reversed that priority😂

[Mark Cavanaugh @MarkCavanaugh3]

@TheMovieMan17 @classic_film I have a theory that DeForest Kelley somewhat patterned his irascible “I’m just a county doctor Jim!” bit after Doc Adams on Gunsmoke. Both very good at their job, both cranky and both lovable.

[Mark Cavanaugh @MarkCavanaugh3]

@classic_film He fully embraced his own character. Kyle MacLachlan said “He was in tune w the universe.” I don’t know about that but he was utterly, unapologetically himself. I liked Blue Velvet & Mulholland Drive, LOVED Twin Peaks and found something to love in all he did. #RIPDavidLynch

@classic_film Liberty Valance from The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance
