Birdman Andersen's home was raided by police.

When it comes to crimes against children, there’s nothing more shocking than when that crime allegation comes against a sports figure, especially one known for his charity work.  While his minutes have disappeared this season, Denver Nuggets basketball player Chris “Birdman” Andersen is very popular in the community for his colorful tattoos, high-flying blocks, and his charity work.  He’s something of a redemption story, coming off a two-year drug suspension to resume his NBA career, but that career might be over.  Chris “Birdman” Andersen’s home was raided by the Douglas County Internet Crimes Against Children unit.

“For me right now, I think I’m at a stage where I don’t know enough information,” said George Karl, Andersen’s coach with the Denver Nuggets. “I think we all were advised probably not to talk about it until we know the information.  The only thing I will say is I trust Chris.  In my years with him, he’s been fantastic.  I think he’s really grown as a person.  We’re going to support him and stand by him.”  Karl added, “I think enough guys individually have been told what’s going on. I don’t think we have the full information, the full story to analyze or scrutinize.  Like I said before, I trust Bird.  I think Bird will figure this out.”

Andersen has been suspended indefinitely by the team pending the results of the investigation.  No one has been arrested as a result of this investigation, and no arrests are pending.  Andersen shares the home with several roommates.

I’ve never had a problem eating food from a gas station.  Just two weeks ago, I ate a couple of hot dogs purchased from a gas station.  They were delicious.  That’s not the first time I’ve eaten gas station food, and I doubt it will be the last.  There’s nothing like a fun food novelty. […]

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
