GEORGETOWN, Colo. (KDVR) — You may have seen them at Georgetown Lake off Interstate 70, vehicles racing on the frozen water. It looks crazy and it is crazy, crazy fun that is. His name is Kevin "The Boogie Man" Boog. He is one of 50 members of the Our Gang Racing Club where they do all their driving on, you guessed it, frozen H2O.This "Boogie Man" is a Jeepster to the bone. Colorado mountains once hosted the famous 10th Mountain Division "I've got a 1960 Jeep CJ-3B. This 3B was found in a junkyard, I pulled 50 pounds of mud out of it, and it's a Frankenstein," said Boog.The idea is simple, you take a vehicle, any vehicle. The club has seen Subarus, Teslas, and even a Bentley. If it has four wheels and is a four-wheel drive, then it qualifies to hit the ice.Boog is proud of his ice-chewing modified Jeep. "I am running a few more horsepower than what it did from the factory. But the engine I have in it is lighter than the engine that came out of it, and it is a V-8," said...

Chicago Cubs top prospect Pete Crow-Armstrong’s defense continues to impress: ‘He’s going to be one of the top-10 center fielders to ever play’

Published Wed, 25 Dec 2024 16:58:59 GMT

Pete Crow-Armstrong already has produced numerous highlight-reel worthy catches as he heads into his second full season of professional baseball.So when asked to rate his most recent diving grab in the seventh inning of Tuesday’s Cactus League win against the Texas Rangers — smoothly navigating the impending wall as he leaped while crossing over onto the warning-track dirt — Crow-Armstrong remarked, “Oh, that’s up there.” The play kept the game tied, preventing the runner on second base from scoring.In breaking down his catch, Crow-Armstrong noted how the baseball came off the bat of right-handed hitter Ezequiel Duran, making it easier for him to judge the play because of the expected trajectory and descent of the ball. If it had been hit to the right-center field gap by a lefty, that play’s difficulty would have been amplified with the way the ball would have landed.“So I wouldn’t say that was the hardest catch I’ve ever m...
