The Appetizer Hour with Brett Kane

It's a Broncos Victory Monday as DMac pops some bottles and kicks the smoke machine on for a 27-26 OT victory over the Commanders on Sunday Night Football. Plus, a coda for the 2025 Colorado Buffaloes season with just one more strange phrase-ism from Coach Sanders.

0:00 - CSU hired a new Head Football Coach! Before we get to that, let's celebrate DMac's radio anniversary and poorly impersonate the Godfather. We'll get to sports eventually? 16:06 - For the last time this season, Coach Prime addressed the media up in Boulder. He announced his decision to redshirt Juju Lewis and give Kaidon Salter in the final game of the year. He also had a good back and forth...

0:00 - The Nuggets took care of the Grizzlies, still nursing injuries...how much should Nuggets fans sweat the upcoming schedule when Jokic is beasting like this? 16:02 - Monday Night Football ended with a nut punch on Niners WR Jauan Jennings, which begs the question...would you rather someone spit in your face or hit you below the belt? 32:33 - The Rockies announced who their new skipper is goin...

0:00 - It's 6 in the Morning with Brett Kane...without Brett? Kaner's out welcoming Baby Bo Val into the world. DMac is in studio today in his place. Where's DMac gonna take the Appetizer Hour this morning? Also, the Avs beat the Blackhawks in Chicago yesterday, and Moser had a rather strangle goal call during the broadcast. 16:34 - One career NFL start for Shedeur Sanders, one NFL win. How did Sh...

0:00 - The Avs beat the Rangers 6-3 last night at Ball Arena! They have now won 7 games in a row! I know we've said this before, but we'll say it again. This year's squad really feels different, man. It's not last year's squad. The 25-26 Avs are LEGIT.  15:58 - Last night, the Bills lost to the Texans on Thursday Night Football. A Davis Mills-lead Houston squad beat the Bills who have, oh by the w...

0:00 - The Nuggets bounced back with a good win last night in NOLA! They came close to blowing it, but they didn't, and that's what matters. What are our impressions of this squad 14 games into the season? 15:37 - We have Bye Week Blues here in the Mile High City...it's got us doing some thinking...Brett tried to imagine the best case scenario and the worst case scenario for the Broncos on the bac...

0:00 - Broncos are 9-2. They just beat the mighty Chiefs. Is this season a bit of fool's gold? Or are they the real deal? Is a Super Bowl within reach? The betting odds would suggest they're getting there, but not quite ready to summit the mountaintop.  14:32 - We tried not to freak out after the Nuggets lost to a sputtering Bulls team at home on Monday. It's a long season. [blank] happens. But to...

0:00 - Do your best Marc Moser impression, people. IT'S THE NBAAAaaAAaaAAAAAaa. The Nuggets completely blew it to the Bulls last night. At home! That ruins our city's spotless home winning record. How much are we freaking out about this? Is it a bad loss? Or is it just one of those games that happens in an 82-game season? 16:46 - Heading into the bye week, the Broncos are 9-2. They have the best r...

0:00 - YOUR DENVER BRONCOS ARE 9-2! They slayed the Mighty Chiefs yesterday at Mile High to cement their spot atop the AFC West. Brett's going to make good on his promise from last week. No criticism today! No nitpicking! The Broncos just beat the Chiefs outright. Today is a day of celebration, positivity, sunshine, and rainbows.  14:59 - The Broncos are starting to believe in themselves, no matte...

0:00 - Gavin Brindley has come out of nowhere and is immediately making an impact on the Avalanche. He scored AGAIN to help power the Avs past the Sabres last night. That guy is a DUDE, man.  15:46 - It's not technically a must-win. But Broncos vs Chiefs is a MUST-WIN for Denver! They have a chance to step on KC's throat and cement their place atop the AFC West. Meanwhile, KC is coming off a bye a...

0:00 - Nikola Jokic dropped 55 DAMN POINTS directly on the heads of the LA Clipppers and all those trees Kawhi Leonard is out here planting. AND, more importantly...the Nuggets won!

He's at the airport, he couldn't miss t...

0:00 - Another double diparoo, another double WINAROO. The Avs are a WAGON. The Nuggets are a WAGON. Denver is full of wagons right now, and they're rollin.  14:31 - Nikola Jokic isn't just the most efficient basketball player of all time. He's the most efficient ATHLETE of all time. Period. Has there ever been an athlete as efficient as Jokic? In any sport ever? 33:20 - It's time for another week...

0:00 - Shedeur Sanders once proclaimed that he had perfect timing. Even wrote a song about it. How's Bo Nix's timing? Sean Payton was asked about it yesterday.  14:47 - These revamped Nuggets in the Tenzer/Wallace/Adelman era continue to impress us night in and night out. Brett has some numbers that put their hot start in perspective. 32:29 - It's time for another edition of COLLEGE FOOTBALL STOCK...

0:00 - 2 Nuggets games, 2 Avs games, 4 wins this weekend! Right now, the Nuggets, Avalanche, and Broncos are all in (or approaching) a championship window simultaneously. That's unbelievable. Enjoy it, Denver sports fans.  14:24 - Chase Daniel and Colin Cowherd are Sean Payton's boys. We know this. It's been well documented. Now, both those guys are starting do doubt/criticize Bo Nix. Hmmm...if we...

0:00 - Just when you thought the Broncos had won their ugliest game yet...they continue to find new inventive ways to get uglier. Your Broncos are 8-2 and that's all that matters...but MY GOD that game was horrible yesterday. 15:42 - How do we make sense of this Broncos team? They're 8-2! They've won 7 games in a row! And yet, they still look disjoined and uncoordinated out there! They don't pass...

0:00 - Yesterday, the Nuggets beat the Heat at Ball Arena, and Nikola Jokic did Nikola Jokic things. How does he keep impressing us?? How does he keep finding new ways to dazzle? 15:52 - The Broncos need to strike EARLY against the Raiders tonight! Don't go scoreless for 3.5 quarters against the lowly Raiders! Come on!

0:00 - The Avalanche won a hockey game in regulation!? Really? No Overtime required? Go figure! 14:47 - The NFL trade deadline came and went and the Broncos did...nothing. Are we okay with that? After that, Coach Prime addressed the media yesterday and said a bunch of words but really didn't say anything. That seems to be the usual these days.  33:25 - It's time for another weekly edition of NFL S...

0:00 - Westbrook came back to town with the Sacramento Kings, and took that L on the way out. Do we miss Westbrook at all? Or was a parting of ways the best option for everyone involved? 16:10 - The NFL Trade Deadline is today at 2pm MT. Adam Schefter said he doesn't expect the Broncos to make a move. But Brett says...why not? Why shouldn't they test the market and see what's out there? 33:13 - It...

0:00 - How on earth do the Broncos keep finding ways to win? Call it luck, call it Payton's Master Plan, call it whatever you want. But your Denver Football Broncos are 7-2 after another thrilling 4th quarter comeback! How do they keep doing it? 15:01 - Is Brett being too critical on a Rally House Victory Monday? Is it okay to point out this team's deficiencies even though they keep winning? 33:08...

With everything squarely in the rearview mirror, how do we feel about the whole Mikko/Marty trade? 15:03 - Texter posed a great question: are the Broncos seen as "fraud" around the league? As in, one of these teams whose record is fools gold and will be exposed soon enough. See: the Pittsburgh Steelers. 32:43 - Wh...

0:00 - The Nuggets obliterated the Pelicans last night at Ball Arena 122-88. Sure the Pelicans are bad, but the Nuggets actually rose to the task and blew out a bad team. And, they looked good doin it. This is a DEEP team. The bench can actually play. Jokic is able to sit for multiple minutes (plural!) without the entire game unravelling. It's what we've needed to see for years now! 18:07 - How do...

0:00 - Turns out...when the Avs have 5 guys on the ice...and the other team has 4 dudes on the ice...you're supposed to score! And good things happen when you do that! Last night, the Avs scored 4 power play goal en route to an 8-4 drubbing of the Devils. Aside from 4 awful minutes, the Avs played on heck of a game and it was great to see! 14:36 - Brett Kane Finds Out did some digging, as he does....

0:00 - The Nuggets finally beat the Minnesota Basketball Timberwolves! It actually happened! Granted, Anthony Edwards wasn't playing but it still counts. The new-look Nuggets are starting to figure it out. Jamal Murray looks ready to go! 16:13 - PSII got banged up in the Cowboys game, and it's looking like a pectoral strain. He may head to IR after further evaluation. If PSII is sidelined for 4-6...

0:00 - HOW BOUT THEM COWBOYS!? Denver destroyed Dallas yesterday at Mile High and finally put on the offensive clinic we've been waiting for. Was this game more about Denver's offense going off, or Dallas' defensive issues? 14:23 - After 8 games, how do Broncos fans feel about Riley Moss? He drew a lot of criticism early in the season. Do those feeling still linger? Or are people a fan of his now?...

0:00 - Our first Double Diparoo of the season was a double Lossaroo. The Avs/Nordiques fell to the Hurricanes/Whalers in a shootout, and the Nuggets lost to the Warriors in OT. What are the positive and negative takeaways from both games?  16:04 - All these thrilling late-game comebacks have been fun for the Broncos. But you know what's even better. STARTING STRONG!
