In St. Louis, they’re welcoming Nolan Arenado with billboards along I-70. In Colorado, Rockies fans remain angry as they come to grips with Monday’s lopsided trade that sent the star third baseman to the Cardinals. And those fans — those who have not vowed to boycott the team — are wondering what comes next for the home team. Good question. In the eye of the hurricane, general manager Jeff Bridich and owner Dick Monfort attempted to put a positive spin on things during their Tuesday news conference. Said Bridich: “This certainly is not a total teardown and rebuild.” Added Monfort: “We have an extremely talented team. They’re built to compete. It’s time for them to take the next step.” But baseball pundits aren’t buying it. FanGraphs, an analytics-based website, called the trade “an unmitigated disaster” for the Rockies. In ESPN’s latest rankings of starting lineups, the Rockies came in dead last. Regardless, the Rockies will report to spring training Feb. 17 and are … [Read more...] about Reeling Rockies face long list of questions in post-Nolan Arenado era

House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy has a fresh spring in his step after the Republicans defied the odds and professional political prognosticators by picking up 15 seats in the 2020 congressional elections. McCarthy, who has his eyes on the majority in November 2022, approached the 2020 congressional elections differently than Republicans in recent history have traditionally targeted congressional electoral efforts, and his moves paid off—and not only infuriated but befuddled the beltway pundit class. For the first time since 1994, in 2020 no GOP incumbent running for reelection lost. Meanwhile, McCarthy blew away fundraising records previously set by former House Speaker Paul Ryan—astonishing since he did it from the minority. Usually, House political leaders do better raising money from the majority. That’s not to mention the most significant development which is a freshman class entering Congress in 2021 that represents perhaps the most diverse in party history with the most … [Read more...] about Exclusive: After 2020 Gains, Kevin McCarthy Eyes House GOP Majority, Speaker’s Gavel in Midterms

I wonder whether or not I’m guaranteed of having it worse with the second round.” It’s very common to have a headache after the vaccine and while most side effects resolve in 36 hours, some people have a headache for a few days. I know I did. Your headache also could be due to something else. You may get a headache after the second shot as well, or you may get different side effects. That said, if your headache is “the worst headache of your life” or you have … [Read more...] about Headache After Vaccine? Dr. Mallika Marshall Answers Your Coronavirus Questions

Paulie Hynek (credit: CBS) “Probably a subconscious state of just knowing you got a second chance. If things are good or bad you’re going to keep going.

By the time gunshots rang out near the State Capitol in the early evening on May 28, most Colorado state lawmakers already had left for the day. But none of them would mistake the change in the air outside in the days ahead. A large crowd had assembled that evening to protest the recent police killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis. It was the first mass demonstration in what would turn into a weeks-long protest of systemic racism and American policing that’s played out not only in Denver but in cities and towns across the country. Those shots injured no one — and may have been fired from outside the crowd, onlookers said — but their sound sent many scrambling around and into the Capitol. Among them was state Rep. Leslie Herod, a Denver Democrat who chairs the state’s Black Democratic Legislative Caucus. As the increasingly volatile situation played out that night, it deepened a drive in Herod, and soon others, to respond to the pain and outrage being expressed by those early … [Read more...] about How Colorado found the political will to pass a sweeping police reform law in just 16 days
