Plus, he hasn’t even tried to sell the estate.
He offered to buy Tom’s share of a rental property for $11,000 without telling him he received a purchase offer for $188,000. He committed perjury to claim benefits he wasn’t entitled to. And much more.
My kind, trusting, forgiving husband wanted to preserve their relationship, so he offered to sell his half of the estate to Dick at a significant discount. Dick insisted the house was worth 40 percent less than the value determined by two appraisals, the sale of an identical home and the county assessor.
Tom is shocked and angry, but mostly heartbroken. Dick has left him no choice but to remove him as executor and recover misappropriated funds. Dick is livid, and Tom feels guilty. He loves his brother and hopes to reconcile. I am seething with fury at Dick’s betrayal. How do I support my husband when I think he’s better off without that snake?
— Estate Scamming
Dear Estate: Tom’s guilty feelings are exactly what Dick wants. By leveraging an emotionally manipulative relationship that’s probably decades in the making, Dick shielded himself from Tom’s scrutiny, allowing him to blatantly steal from the estate to which they were both entitled. Tom is probably never going to feel completely settled about the course of action he’s taking now, but it is the right one and it’s good that he’s brought in legal support.
Continue to reaffirm Tom’s decision-making. Remind him that the law is on his side, and he’s been backed into a corner by his brother. If you can, offer to attend meetings with an estate lawyer with Tom. In emotionally charged situations like these, it’s good to have someone to help think through decisions, take notes or ask questions.
Focusing on the task at hand — settling the estate — also gives Tom time and space to come to terms with who Dick is and what he’s done.
If Tom still wants to reconcile, there’s not much point in arguing with him about it. The relationship between these brothers is always going to be complicated. Sometimes the best way to support a loved one is to listen to them and reflect back to them what you’re hearing.
Dear Eric: My wife and I have been married for 11 years and are parents to three kids. We spend a lot of time together, eat dinner every night as a family and try to have one fun event with the kids each weekend. Occasionally, an event with my friends comes up on a date that my wife already has plans with her friends. Whenever I tell my friends I can’t make it, the response is “Oh, you have to babysit” or “Oh, you have to watch the kids.”
I don’t know why the wording bothers me so much and I don’t know what better words to use. I snapped at the main culprit once that “I’m not babysitting, they’re my *bleeping* kids!” I also don’t know what else to say.
Saying that I’m watching my own kids sounds stupid to me. I love spending time with them; it’s a blast!
I think I’m too caught up on the words, but don’t know how to express how I feel to them when they say I’m babysitting. Any ideas?
— My Kids’ Dad
Dear Dad: It makes sense that the wording bothers you. They are your kids and the way your friends talk about you spending time with them indicates a profound difference in the way they think about parenting.
You’re raising your children, not babysitting them. So, when your friends act like this is just an afterschool gig that keeps you from having fun with the guys, it chafes because it diminishes what you do and how you’re choosing to spend your time. (While also, not so subtly, suggesting that the kids are your wife’s job.)
They may never really get it, which makes me sad for their families. But try telling them “it bothers me when you say I’m babysitting my kids. That’s not how I see it. Spending time with them is really important to me, so sometimes I actively choose to be with them and not you.”
You can also change the way you give excuses for missed plans. Instead of telling them your wife has conflicting plans, you can tell them “we’ve got family plans; I’ll catch you next time.” Or simply, “I’m busy.” Because you are. Busy being a dad.

With a chance to control their own destiny in the Mountain West Conference title race, the Rams fell flat in a trip to California’s Central Valley, losing 28-22 at Fresno State late Saturday night.
CSU scored on its first drive to take a 7-0 lead but didn’t score again until after Fresno State built a 28-7 by the end of the first half. That ended up being too tall of a hill for the Rams to climb. As a result, CSU dropped to 7-4 overall and 5-1 in the Mountain West.
That means the Rams will need help in order to earn a spot in the conference title game, with UNLV (9-2, 5-1 MW) holding the tie-breaker should both finish tied for second. Boise State (10-1, 7-0) will host the title game on Dec. 6 after clinching the top spot in the regular-season standings with a narrow win at Wyoming on Saturday.
The Rams host Utah State (3-3, 4-7) in their regular-season finale next Friday, while UNLV hosts last-place Nevada (3-9. 0-6) next Saturday.
Mikey Keene threw two touchdown passes, Bryson Donelson had a career-high 150 yards rushing and a TD on 13 carries to lead Fresno State.
Donelson, a freshman, went into the game with 199 yards rushing this season, including his previous season high of 58 yards in the season opener. Keene was 20-of-28 passing for 181 yards with no interceptions. Mac Dalena finished with seven receptions for 75 yards and a touchdown for Fresno State (6-5, 4-3 MW).
Justin Marshall capped a 12-play, 77-yard opening drive that took nearly 6 1/2 minutes off the clock with a 10-yard TD for the Rams and finished with 94 yards rushing.
Donelson ran for 21 yards and Keene hit Raylen Sharpe for a 38-yard gain to set up a 16-yard TD run by Donelson to make it 7-7. Joshua Wood followed with a 4-yard scoring run before Dalena caught a 28-yard touchdown pass with 3:18 left in the second quarter and Keene hit Jalen Moss for a 15-yard TD less than 3 minutes later that gave the Bulldogs a 28-7 lead at halftime.
Brayden Fowler-Nicolosi ran for a 9-yard TD late in the third quarter, threw a 5-yard touchdown pass to Jamari Person and then hit Vince Brown II for the 2-point conversion to trim Colorado State’s deficit to 28-22 with 17 seconds left. But the Rams were unable to recover the ensuing onside kick.

]]>Including playoff matchups, Denver (9-6) has won 13 of its last 14 games against the Lakers. The Nuggets will be back in action Monday at home against the Knicks.
Trailing 63-57 at halftime, the Nuggets once again needed a jolt from their starting lineup. And once again, they conjured a game-changing run by harnessing the power of Michael Porter Jr.
He was an integral part of the 27-6 surge Friday that nearly resulted in a comeback win against the Mavericks. And he was at the center of Denver’s dominant third quarter again 24 hours later in Los Angeles. Led by Porter’s 13 points, six rebounds and two assists in the frame, the Nuggets outscored the Lakers 37-14 while he was on the floor. His night ended with 24, 11 and four on 10-of-15 shooting.
The most impressive aspect of Porter’s start to the season might be that he’s comfortably averaging a career high in assists with 3.0 per game, but without sacrificing anything as a scorer. He’s making the extra swing pass when it’s sensible, including one Saturday to Jamal Murray for a corner three.
Michael Malone has passed Doug Moe as the winningest coach in Nuggets history with his 433rd regular-season win. He did it in 56 fewer games than Moe, perhaps fittingly clinching the record with a triumph over the opponent that Denver has owned more than any other during the peak of Malone’s tenure.
It would have also been fitting for Nikola Jokic to tie Magic Johnson at 136 career triple-doubles in Los Angeles, but it didn’t work out so poetically, despite another excellent game from the MVP center. Jokic finished with 34 points, 13 rebounds, eight assists and two steals. He added a 3-for-7 night to his league-leading 3-point percentage, and the misses included one of the goofiest shots of his career: an 80-foot tip-in attempt at the third-quarter buzzer, volleyball punch-style.
Jokic is now 56.3% from outside this season. When he does record his next triple-double, he will tie Johnson for the third-most in NBA history.
Murray’s early-season slump seeped into his free-throw shooting in Los Angeles, where he missed four of six attempts in a 14-point game. The good news for Denver is that Murray has continued to contribute as a rebounder and playmaker amid his scoring issues. The scoring just happens to be the most important attribute the Nuggets need from him.
In the meantime, Russell Westbrook went for another 14 points, seven rebounds and 11 assists, bringing his success as a Nugget into the arena where he and the Lakers once struggled together. He windmilled his arms several times to celebrate after an emphatic put-back dunk in the third and shouted to the crowd after burying a 3-pointer in the fourth.
]]>Odds entering Saturday: -400
Numbers at Kansas: 8 receptions for 125 yards and 2 touchdowns; 7 tackles, 1 pass defended
Note: The odds are still very much in Hunter’s favor, even if his solid performance wasn’t enough to stop the Jayhawks in a 37-21 loss in Kansas City. Hunter hit the Heisman pose in the end zone after his second TD of the day and looked the part.
Odds entering Saturday: +450
Numbers at Wyoming: 20 carries for 169 yards and a touchdown
Note: Jeanty’s stock is rising, but can he overcome the disadvantage of playing for a Group of Five team? He’s certainly doing everything right, eclipsing 2,000 yards rushing on the season in the Broncos’ 17-13 win.
Odds entering Saturday: +1500
Numbers against Wake Forest: Completed 27 of 38 passes for 280 yards, 2 touchdowns, 1 interception; ran in one TD
Note: Ward gave voters a lot to consider Saturday when he broke Bernie Kosar’s single-season Miami passing record, totaling 3,774 yards on 268 completions with at least two more games left to go. Kosar’s record (3,642 yards on 262) stood for 40 years.
Odds entering Saturday: +3000
Numbers at Ohio State: Completed 8 of 18 passes for 68 yards, no touchdowns, no interceptions; sacked 5 times
Note: Rourke shot into the top four candidates after a strong performance against Michigan last week, only to have his worst game of the season Saturday in the Hoosiers’ first loss of the season.
Odds entering Saturday: +20000
Numbers at Kansas: Completed 23 of 29 passes for 266 yards and 3 touchdowns, with no interceptions
Note: Sanders’ darkhorse candidacy is getting darker, but that probably says more about Hunter’s rising star than it says about Shedeur, who played very well Saturday.

]]>The Buffs arrived at Arrowhead Stadium with their destiny in their hands. And like every KU ball carrier Saturday, it slipped through their fingers.
Racing into the locker room, a KU player leaped into the air and delivered an expletive about CU. Could the Buffs fans, save for Peggy, be blamed for joining him?
This game provided an opportunity to make a statement. Now, CU must wait, painfully needing Wil Hunting to sift through the tiebreakers with multiple teams knotted atop the conference standings. For starters, the Buffs must beat Oklahoma State on Friday. Then it gets messy.
If there is a four-way tie at 7-2, it goes to common opponents. Arizona State (4-0) becomes the No. 1 seed, Iowa State and BYU tie (3-1) and CU is out (2-2). In a three-way tie, the Buffs need a victory and for one of the other teams to lose. Not impossible, but a lot less likely than before Saturday when the Buffs knew two wins would send them into the championship with a shot to reach the College Football Playoff.
That was the blueprint.
Saturday, the Buffs did not look like they even had concepts of a plan.
This was the Buffs’ biggest game in eight years. Based on how the past month had gone, it was supposed to end with talk about Travis Hunter, Shedeur Sanders and Deion.
Instead, it invoked images of Charmin. The Buffs were soft. There is no polite way to put it after a 37-21 loss when they got rocked, chalked and Jayhawked. Facing a team desperate to keep its bowl hopes flickering, CU failed to match KU’s energy, intensity and physicality.
Devin Neal rushed for everything but a fraternity, finishing with 207 of KU’s 331 yards on the ground.
“It’s not indicative of who we’ve been and who we are. We could not stop the bleeding,” coach Deion Sanders said. “They outplayed us and they wanted it more than we did.”
This was a day when things ended for CU, like a four-game winning streak that left the Buffs as media darlings on merit, not social media posts. This was a day when memories of 2023 resurfaced, the Buffs hanging on by a thread, with Coach Prime begging, pleading for his defense to get a stop. As in one. Uno.
He did not blame talented defensive coordinator Robert Livingston, insisting he called “a good game.” He pointed the finger in the mirror and at the alarming lack of execution that included missed tackles by Cam’Ron Silmon-Craig, LaVonta Bentley and inexcusable penalties by Shilo Sanders.
It was disappointing because it represented such a juxtaposition. Coach Prime recruits players who crave the big stage. But they wilted in the spotlight, the curtain pull producing an audible gasp of disbelief, starting with Neal opening the scoring with a 51-yard gallop on a screen pass.
“I was like, ‘Oh no here we go with the dumb stuff,”‘ Coach Prime said. “We have to do better. We have to be better as coaches and players. We have to do a better job, period. We started smelling ourselves as a team. We got intoxicated with the attention, the multitude of articles and the assumption that we’re this and we are that. We did not play CU football. Therefore, we got our butts kicked.”
It would have been instructive to talk to a defensive player after this debacle. But no one was made available, fittingly no-shows just like they were on the field after KU shredded CU for 522 yards and 29 first downs.
“We just played with a different energy,” Neal said.
It should have been worse. For reasons that remain inexplicable, the Jayhawks kicked three short field goals when they should have gone for it on every fourth down, and they actually passed the ball in the second half.
Logic demanded they use only their legs with quarterback Jalon Daniels ducking under defenders, Neal running through them and Sevion Morrison jogging past them. The Jayhawks did not just win at the point of attack. They dominated.
It left Damon Greaves lonely. He is KU’s punter. Hopefully, his parents took a screen shot of him when FOX panned the sidelines. He has punted 31 times this season, and no fewer than twice in a game before Saturday’s staycation.
CU is built for a track meet. But even with Shedeur playing well and Travis Hunter posting his sixth 100-yard receiving game this season and scoring twice, the Buffs were lapped.
“We had a lot of mess-ups offensively,” said Shedeur, who completed 23 of 29 passes for 266 yards and set a new single-season record with his 29th touchdown passes. “We have to look at what we did wrong.”
This was Nebraska all over again. CU responded to that embarrassment by winning seven of its next eight games. It put them in position to do something special.
Now the Buffs are, for all intents and purposes, on the outside looking in. We have learned this season that they are better than anticipated, their roster microwaving before our eyes. But on Saturday, the Jayhawks taught them a lesson, that inflated egos can still lead to sobering humiliation.

]]>Some of the Avs’ early-season flaws were also on display at Amerant Arena. In the end, Colorado needed a great third period from its goaltender and contributions from nearly the entire lineup to collect a 7-4 win against the Florida Panthers.
It didn’t always look great, but the Avs have won seven of their last nine games and 12 of 17 since an 0-4 start.
“I think we’re pretty happy with the lineup we’re playing now,” Avs coach Jared Bednar said. “We’re getting contributions from all four lines and six-plus (defensemen). We just want to continue to refine our game and get better and better as the season goes on.”
Jonathan Drouin had his first two goals of the season, Valeri Nichushkin had his first three points and Oliver Kylington’s two-point night included his first goal in an Avs uniform — a much-needed insurance marker after Florida had made a huge push in the final period.
Colorado exploded for four goals in the second. The last one will be on the shortlist of the best team goals created by the Avs this season. It started with a couple of slick passes to get out of the defensive zone, and then all five Avalanche players touched the puck at the offensive end.
Nichushkin entered the zone and left it for Casey Mittelstadt. He drew two guys to him and then slipped a pass to Devon Toews. He found Samuel Girard in the left circle, and then the Avs defenseman hit Mikko Rantanen at the right post for a re-direct while down on one knee.
“Every guy on the ice on that particular play did the right thing,” Bednar said. “(Girard) makes a great pass and it ends up being a tap-in, but it’s all the work that came before that builds that goal.”
That made it a 5-2 game. The first four Colorado goals in this contest were a mix of skill and good fortune.
Drouin made it a 2-2 game on the first shift of the second period. Cale Makar found him cutting from left to right in front of the crease, and Drouin calmly caught the pass and flicked a backhanded shot past a helpless Sergei Bobrovsky.
“I feel more comfortable with every game,” said Drouin, who missed 16 of the first 17 with an upper-body injury. “It’s a very hard team to play against here … I thought we played a good game after giving up the first goal.”
It was Makar’s second assist, and the 100th multi-point game of his career. Only Bobby Orr reached that milestone faster among defensemen in NHL history.
Logan O’Connor made it 3-2 with his second of the season at 4:04. Kylington got beat in his own end, but Sam Malinski bailed him out with a nice defensive play. Then Kylington made a great pass to spring O’Connor on a breakaway, and he snapped a shot over Bobrovsky’s shoulder.
Girard’s shot from the left point went off two Panthers before it reached the back of the net at 8:54 to give the Avs a two-goal lead.
The Panthers struck first on the opening shift of the game. Carter Verhaeghe’s shot from the outside of the right circle went through Girard’s legs and beat goaltender Alexandar Georgiev to the short side just 52 seconds in.
Drouin’s first goal was a dirty one. Makar’s shot from the left point shortly after Drouin had won an offensive zone faceoff went off Bobrovsky, off Drouin’s body and trickled back across the goal line at 9:13.
Florida went back ahead 2-1 at the end of a shift to forget for the Avs. There was a turnover in the neutral zone, then another that gave ex-Colorado forward Evan Rodrigues a wide-open look. He missed the net, but the Avs still couldn’t get out of danger. Eventually, Aleksander Barkov swatted the puck out of the air behind Georgiev at 15:44.
Given the context — a healthy Stanley Cup champion, in its building — this was one of the most impressive wins of the Avalanche’s season.
“We’re still missing (Ross Colton), and he’s an important piece, but most of the guys are here,” Drouin said. “Every time you play the defending Stanley Cup champion, you want to play well and go right up against them.
“I thought we played a really, really good game here.”

]]>As originally reported by Denver7, the rule would effectively ban the import of animals that are less than 12 weeks old, since younger animals can’t receive the rabies vaccine.
Organizations licensed under Colorado’s Pet Animal Care and Facilities Act are already prohibited from importing animals younger than 8 weeks, and animals older than three months must have a rabies vaccine.
Nick Fisher, the agriculture department’s PACFA program section chief said the rule change was needed to protect pet owners and their animals from the deadly virus.
“It’s a huge consumer protection issue, obviously, and a huge public safety issue,” Fisher said. “What happens if a child dies or someone else dies as a result of us not doing anything about it?”
While vaccines and post-exposure medicines are effective at preventing people and animals from contracting rabies, once the symptoms of rabies become apparent, the disease is almost always fatal, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The symptoms of rabies in dogs are similar to those of the canine distemper virus, which can result in one disease being diagnosed as the other. To test a dog for rabies, the animal must first be euthanized.
This fact led to heartbreak for numerous pet owners earlier this year when one of 11 puppies imported from Texas by Moms and Mutts Colorado Rescue was found to have rabies.
The remaining 10 dogs were ordered to be put down — only the first was infected, according to Denver7. Fisher said more than 100 dogs were ultimately exposed, and 54 people had to undergo post-exposure treatment, which cost several thousand dollars for some.
“I think this is the tip of the iceberg,” Fisher said of the incident. “There could potentially be cases of rabies that we don’t know about that were diagnosed as distemper.”
The proposed addition to the Code of Colorado Regulations requiring rabies vaccines for dogs, cats and ferrets imported into PACFA-licensed facilities from outside of the state is currently being considered by the agriculture department’s PACFA Advisory Committee.
Also included are requirements that all dogs have at least one vaccine against parvovirus and distemper, all cats have one vaccine against feline viral rhinotracheitis, feline calicivirus and feline panleukopenia; and all ferrets have one vaccine against distemper.
Fisher said the rule would likely be finalized no sooner than fall 2025 if it is accepted by the Colorado Agricultural Commission following an ongoing public comment process.

]]>Wrong Sanders: For the Buffs to win, they needed a Sanders in the headline — just not that one. Shedeur in the big type or Deion in bold meant a victory. Shilo? Not so much. The senior safety struggled again. Sanders recorded three penalties — a horse collar tackle, offsides and personal foul — in a game where discipline and winning in the margins was critical. Sanders was not the reason the Buffs lost. But he was in on too many tackles and on the wrong end of too many penalties, symbolizing a CU defense that offered no resistance to a KU offense that did not punt once and exceeded 500 yards. Needing its best performance, CU’s D delivered its worst.
Real Deal Neal: This was the day everything felt different, testing the adjectives bestowed upon CU’s much-improved front. Sturdy, stout, stingy. None applied when it came to slowing running back Devin “Real Deal” Neal. Showing why he is an NFL prospect — Was it a coincidence the Broncos scouted the KU-Iowa State game two weeks ago? — Neal recorded two first-half touchdowns and ran for 88 of the Jayhawks’ 199 yards on the ground. He added short plunges in the third and fourth quarters, giving him 52 career touchdowns and leaving him as a strong candidate to enter KU’s Ring of Honor someday.
Shedeur stands alone: At 12:15 p.m., a good two hours before kickoff, Shedeur Sanders jogged to the Kansas City Chiefs logo at midfield and soaked in the environment. The idea of him playing here in 2025, possibly for the Raiders, becomes more realistic with each passing weekend. After going through his elaborate pregame routine, Sanders took out his Sharpie and rewrote the CU record book. With his 19-yard strike to Drelon Miller, he posted his 29th passing touchdown, breaking Sefo Liufau’s single-season record set in 2014.
Hunter’s Heisman hype: Travis Hunter does things that defy convention and force stares in his direction. Showing why he is the favorite to win the Heisman Trophy, Hunter raced 51 yards for CU’s first touchdown. He added a 26-yard score in the third quarter, making Saturday a legacy day. He eclipsed 1,000 yards receiving and also became only the fifth Buffs receiver to reach double figures in touchdown catches in a single season. His 11 receiving scores sit one shy of Nelson Spruce’s school record. Hunter, who has six 100-yard games this season, insisted he is not chasing numbers, but these kinds of stats matter in the Heisman voting.
