Denver weather: Warm and dry through weekend


FULL ITUNES VERSION: Denver Weather - David Murphy ft. Katy McAllister (Lyrics in Description)

Denver skies will be sunny and partly cloudy Thursday and through the weekend, according to forecasts.

"It"s a nice little respite from last week"s cold," said Todd Dankers, meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Boulder. "There"s going to be plenty of sunshine."

The high temperature Thursday is expected to be 49 or 50 degrees. On Friday, temperatures could rise to 54, Dankers said.

A cold front on Saturday will drop temperatures 10 degrees to a high of 44 in the Denver metro area.

The cold front may bring snow to the mountains on Saturday.

Transfer news LIVE: Manchester United linked with Brazilian move as Neymar ...


No Cantona Magic For Van Gaal! | Manchester United 0-0 Chelsea | FANCAM

The January transfer window opens in just a few days - and we"ll be bringing you all the gossip right here.

As Arsenal look set to add Mohamed Elneny to their midfield ranks, Premier League rivals are also on the hunt for new signings.

Manchester United lead the way as they seek additional firepower, eyeing Lazio"s starlet Felipe Anderson, while another Brazilian target looks set to stay where he is.

08:33Key event

Man United transfer roundup

Jose Mourinho is on holiday in Brazil and is comfortable about getting another job because he is the best in the world, according to his agent.

Jorge Mendes told Sky Sport Italia:

Mourinho is now in Brazil. Lets see what will happen when he returns.

Cole to MLS

Ashley Cole closing on LA Galaxy move

Ashley Cole is closing on a move to join Steven Gerrard in MLS with LA Galaxy.

Cole, 35, has endured a torrid season with Roma, barely figuring for Rudi Garcias Giallorossi.

The ex-England defender never really recovered from a mauling by Arjen Robben and is unwanted in Rome - losing his squad number to summer signing Lucas Digne.

Now the FA Cups most decorated player looks set to head Stateside to continue his career.

Bruce Arena, LA Galaxy boss, declined to comment on direct speculation on Monday, before declaring suggestions that the player could be joining the 2014 MLS champs as fairly accurate.

Galaxy have already moved on key pair Omar Gonzalez and Juninho to part-fund Coles wage demands.

Tuesday"s transfer round up

Arsenal will need to splash the cash for Brozovic

Arsenal will need to spend 25million (18.4m) to take Marcelo Brozovic from Inter Milan.

Theyve been heavily-linked with the Croatian international, who has impressed with the Nerazzurri this term.

Roberto Mancini wont want to cash in, but he knows he needs to partly generate his own funds at San Siro, if he wants to build his squad next month.

All the latest of Tuesdays paper round up is here

Chicharito

Selling Hernandez a "mistake" - Ray Wilkins

Ex-Man United and England midfielder Ray Wilkins says his former club should NOT have sold striker Javier Hernandez.

The Mexican didnt fit manager Louis van Gaals requirements, and after being loaned to Real Madrid last term, was shipped off to Bayer Leverkusen on a permanent deal in August.

Hes since been in terrific form in the Bundesliga, while United have struggled for goals.

I dont quite understand how this guys playing outside this country, Wilkins told talkSPORT.

He was a snip at 8m-10m, 27 years of age, should not have been allowed to leave because hes too talented.

Arsenal have been linked with a move for the Mexican in January, but Mirror Sport believes Bayer Leverkusen will resist any bids for their top scorer, despite their Champions League elimination.

Patrick Bamford

Bamford in demand after ending loan spell

Patrick Bamford called time on his loan spell at Crystal Palace on Monday.

The England under-21 international has failed to make an impression at Selhurst Park under Alan Pardew, and after playing 45 minutes against Swansea on Monday, made the decision to return to parent club Chelsea.

This was my last game for Palace, Bamford announced. It was my decision.

The coaches have just found out I have told them I am going.

If I were being honest, it has been terrible. No one wants to sit on the bench and not play. Obviously things havent worked out for whatever reason.

I would have been more content if I had been given a chance and not taken it. I havent started a game in the Premier League, so for a young player like me that is not what you need. For my development, it is crucial that I play games.

I have got to be open to all options. Ideally I want to stay in the Premier League, and there are a few options to stay, so now it is about assessing which is best and we will go from there.

Hes not expected to be back with the Blues too long however, with another loan deal expected.

A host of Championship sides have already made their interest known, with Middlesbrough - where Bamford shone last season - expected to lead the chase.

After his time at Palace, Premier League clubs may be more wary.

Gerrard

United need experienced striker - Gerrard

My players are fighting for me declared Louis van Gaal after his Man United side drew 0-0 with Chelsea on Monday evening.

But according to ex-Liverpool and England skipper Steven Gerrard, the Dutchman needs more in January - namely an experienced goalscorer.

Manchester United still need something for me, he told BT Sport.

I think they need an extra striker because theres still too much pressure on Wayne Rooney.

Martial is very young, Depay is very young, I think they need an extra striker to come and help Wayne Rooney with the goal burden.

United sold Robin van Persie and Javier Hernandez in the summer, while James Wilson has since been allowed to join Brighton on loan.

Fabregas

Cesc to leave Chelsea?

Cesc Fabregas is wanted by AC Milan and Juventus, according to reports in Italy.

Corriere dello Sport claims the Spaniard wants to quit Stamford Bridge after a poor season has seen him targetted by Chelsea fans.

The Serie A clubs tried to sign Fabregas when he left Arsenal for Barcelona in 2011 and the 28-year-old will now cost around 18m.

The speculation about Fabregas future comes shortly after he claimed he enjoyed an exceptionally good relationship with former Blues boss Jose Mourinho, following reports the pair had fallen out.

Neymar

Brazil skipper aware of interest

2015 has been a terrific year to be Neymar.

A treble winner with Barcelona last season, two more trophies this, shortlisted for the Ballon dOr and having completed his transition from scintillating virtuoso act into bona-fide world class match-winner, the Brazil captains future looks perhaps brighter than anyone else around.

As such, its little wonder the games elite are keeping tabs - with Manchester City the latest to be linked, (with a player who also sits on Uniteds most wanted list).

Asked about interest on his return to Barca after his mid-season break, Neymar declared himself aware, brushing off speculation with a Yes, yes.

Neymar, 23, is currently in talks with Barca over a new deal - his current contract expires in 2018.

Felipe Anderson

First up - Manchester United

According to Italian newspaper La Repubblica, Manchester Uniteds quest for more pep in their attack will see them strike for Felipe Anderson in January.

The Brazilian, 22, was on the clubs summer hitlist, but Lazio were asking for 45million.

However, the Roman clubs season hasnt gone to plan this term - theyre off the pace in the race for Italys top three, while they were also knocked out of the Champions League at the play-off phase, before the group stage.

Now they could reportedly be tempted to cash in on their prize asset. With Uniteds attacking woes, could they splash the cash?

06:41Key event

Tesla Model S & BMW i8 Among Road And Track"s 51 Coolest Cars Of The Last 50 ...


2014 / 2015 BMW i8 Start Up, Test Drive, and In Depth Review

5 hours agoby Jay Cole

One Of The Coolest 51 Cars at the 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show

Road & Track recently put together a cool car list. Specifically a 51 Coolest Cars listfrom the past half century. Why do that?R&D explains:

Cars dont just appear, they evolve, built on the technology and the style of what came before. Every now and then, its useful to take a step back, appreciate history, and get a glimpse of how todays efforts stand in the pantheon of preceding hardware.

well that, and it sells magazines. And people like to look at pictures of them on the Internets.

Scouring the list we find that only two are currently driven by members of the InsideEVs family, and those happen to also be the only twowhicharent classic fossil fuel abusers (althoughI personallyconfess to perhaps owning a certain car with a large bird on the hood once upon a time):

2014 BMW i8

When is a supercar not a supercar? When it is a carbon-fibred-bodied, three-cylinder hybrid that aims to rethink how we think speed, mass production, and everything that makes an exotic tick. The proportions are borrowed from BMWs awesome M1, a 1970s flop that waited 30 years for the world to appreciate it. Prediction: This wont take nearly as long.

Tesla Model S On A Chicago Night (click for great wallpaper-ready imaging)

2013 Tesla Model S

Beautiful, fast, and the first practical EV from a company that hadnt build a car, ever. Only amazing when you stop and think about it. Which you should.

For a trip down memory laneto seeall the cars you wanted as a young person (before you realized almost everything fun was also bad for you and the environment), check out the full Road & Track list here.

Carson Palmer, Cardinals starters, could rest Sunday; fantasy owners need ...


Carson Palmer"s Unsightly Gift from Matt Barkley | NFL

Matt Kartozian-USA TODAY Sports

The Cardinals will have something to play for on Sunday, with the Panthers" game being flexed to 4:25. We break down the fantasy implications.

The Arizona Cardinals will not have a meaningless game against theSeattle Seahawks on Sunday, now that the Panthers" kickoff has been flexed to 4:25 p.m.

A Carolina Panthers win would lock the Cardinals into the No. 2 seed in the NFC, but with the Cardinals playing at the same time, they do not have the luxury of resting their starters. It no longer puts head coach Bruce Arians and his staff in a bizarre situation, one that would have him preparing his starters throughout the week only to yank them early on.

Fantasy impact: Arians gave his starters some rest during Week 16"s blowout win over the Green Bay Packers, but it is difficult to envision that scenario happening once again in Week 17. Fantasy owners with Carson Palmer can keep him penned into lineups.

The Seahawks defense poses a tough challenge, but it is one that Palmer and the Cardinals starters have already proven they can overcome. Palmer"s fantasy owners can continue starting him as planned with Sunday"s game having meaning.

Clay Matthews Refuses To Help Carson Palmer Up [VIDEO]


Carson Palmer Delivers The Heat To John Brown for 7-yard TD! | Packers vs. Cardinals | NFL

BOB BAUM, AP Sports Writer

GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) The Arizona Cardinals had lost dynamic playmaker Tyrann Mathieu for the season. Fellow safety Rashad Johnson, the secondarys quarterback, was sidelined with an ankle injury.

And the Cardinals responded with their best defensive game of the season.

Well, one of their best anyway.

I thought we played better in Seattle, coach Bruce Arians said.

Maybe, but this one was a close second.

Arizona sacked Aaron Rodgers eight times and returned two fumbles for touchdowns in a 38-8 rout of the Green Bay Packers on Sunday.

Were blessed to play this game, Cardinals inside linebacker Deone Bucannon said. I love each and every one of the players in here, and we just want to keep rocking.

The Cardinals ninth straight victory one shy of the club record set in 1948 clinched at least the No. 2 playoff seed in the NFC and a first-round bye. And thanks to Carolinas loss to Atlanta, Arizona still has a shot at the No. 1 seed Carolina needs to lose to Tampa Bay while the Cardinals beat Seattle next Sunday.

Its all about when you click at the right time and your team is hot going into the playoffs, said cornerback Jerraud Powers, who recovered two fumbles, returning one 7 yards for a score.

By the time Karim Martin leveled Rodgers, the ball popped loose, and 6-foot-4, 318-pound Cory Redding followed a convoy 36 yards for the score, it was 31-0 with 9:34 to play.

I think his feeble jump into the end zone was outstanding, Arians said.

Rodgers stayed in a while more, but finally sat down to watch the inevitable conclusion.

We have a standard that we have set around here, Rodgers said, and we just havent lived up to it consistently.

Here are things to take from Arizonas dominant victory over Green Bay:

SACK CITY: The stars aligned for the onslaught of sacks and near-sacks the Cardinals put on the Packers.

First, Green Bay starting left tackle David Bakhtiari missed the game with an ankle injury. Then starting right tackle Bryan Bulaga left with another ankle injury.

The stage was set for Arizona to bring defenders early and often, and it worked.

Dwight Freeney led the way with three sacks, earning $100,000 for each one of them in incentives. Calais Campbell got 2 1/2.

The nine sacks were the most for Arizona since it had 10 against Philadelphia in 1986, two years before the Cardinals moved to the desert.

VERY MUCH STILL IN IT: The loss didnt mean a whole lot to the Packers in their quest for the NFC North title.

Green Bay dropped into a tie with Minnesota for the division lead when the Vikings cruised to a 49-17 victory over the New York Giants on Sunday night. Green Bay hosts Minnesota in its regular-season finale next Sunday.

Green Bay coach Mike McCarthy said the Cardinals were very good, and we played very poor.

FLOYD AGAIN: Arizonas Michael Floyd caught six passes for 111 yards. Its his fifth time over 100 yards receiving in seven games. In his previous 55 games, he did it six times.

Everything is just clicking, Floyd said.

FITZGERALDS MARK: Arizonas Larry Fitzgerald caught four passes to tie his career and Cardinals franchise single-season record of 103 receptions. Its the third time hes been over 100 catches and first since 2007. He caught 63 last season.

REDDINGS RAMBLE: When Redding scooped up that fumble and headed for the end zone, he couldnt help thinking about a similar situation earlier this season.

At Detroit, Redding intercepted Matthew Staffords pass at the 30 but was tackled by Stafford at the 4-yard line.

My boys and teammates gave me a hard time the first one, he said. Letting the quarterback tackle you blah, blah, blah. I said if I get another opportunity, Id have to get it to the end zone and it worked out that way.

Dave Henderson dies at 57


Red Sox Legend Dave Henderson Dies At Age 57

Dave Henderson dies at 57

SEATTLE Former major league outfielder Dave Henderson, who hit one of the most famous home runs in postseason history, died Sunday after suffering a massive heart attack. He was 57.

Henderson died early Sunday morning at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle, according to a statement from the Mariners, one of five teams Henderson played for in his career. Henderson underwent a kidney transplant in late October.

Henderson was best known for his home run in the 1986 AL Championship Series for Boston. With the Red Sox one strike from elimination in Game 5, Henderson hit a two-run homer in the top of the ninth against the California Angels to send the series back to Boston. The Red Sox won Games 6 and 7 to advance to the World Series.

But beyond his memorable playoff moment, Henderson was a reliable contributor to four teams that reached the World Series and played 14 seasons total in the majors. His greatest success came from 1988-91 with Oakland. During that four-year stretch, the As went to the World Series three times.

Henderson played in 575 regular-season games during that span, hitting .275 with 84 homers, 123 doubles and 322 RBIs. Henderson was an All-Star in 1991.

Henderson began his career in Seattle as the first draft pick in the history of the Mariners franchise in 1977. He made his debut in 1981 and played parts of six seasons with the Mariners. Henderson was traded to Boston during the 1986 season and later played for San Francisco and Kansas City.

He was a devoted father to his two sons and always willing to help someone in need, Mariners President Kevin Mather said in a statement. Dave was one of the most popular Mariners in our history, but Dave was also one of the most popular players in Red Sox and As history. He had a special ability to connect with people, both inside the game and in the communities in which he lived. I never saw him at the ballpark, or on the golf course, without a big smile on his face.

After his playing career ended, Henderson spent time as a broadcaster for the Mariners and ran fantasy camps for As and Mariners fans. He also raised funds to support research of Angelman Syndrome, a genetic disorder that affected his son Chase.

Henderson was born July 21, 1958, in Merced, California. He is survived by his sons, Chase and Trent, his wife Nancy and his first wife Lori.
