In a bid to accelerate affordable housing development in Colorado, Gov. Jared Polis signed an executive order Monday that expedites loan and grant approval processes while directing a suite of state agencies to prioritize programs to help prepare the state for years of coming population growth.The order sets out 10 “strategic growth goals” for Colorado in the coming years, a nod both to the state’s current housing shortage and to its projected needs. It directs the state’s Division of Housing to expedite signing contracts with approved grant and loan recipients. Polis told The Denver Post that will cut the timeline for money to reach recipients — like affordable housing developers — from eight months to 90 days. Affordable housing advocates and developers have long lamented the delays, which can run up to a year or more and add time and money to already tight budgets.The order doesn’t allocate any additional funding. But it requires the hous...Can young DLs Matt Henningsen and Elijah Garcia be answer to Broncos’ front-line depth questions?

SANTA CLARA, Calif. – Matt Henningsen read the screen, widened out and got free just as San Francisco quarterback Trey Lance tried to dump the ball off.Henningsen, the second-year Broncos defensive lineman, raised his hands and swatted the pass like he was Christian Braun blocking a shot in transition.Fellow defensive lineman Elijah Garcia saw the flash of the ball and got his hands on it, securing an interception.Henningsen is likely to make the Broncos’ 53-man roster next week and Garcia’s trying to do the same. Together, they’re part of a group that’s attempting to turn one of Denver’s bigger depth question marks into at least a unit that can feel good about rotating players in and out.Can they do it? Henningsen was brimming with confidence after a strong overall showing against San Francisco’s dynamic run game.“We shut the run down,” Henningsen told The Post. “The first drive and a couple runs here and there, but otherwise they were just going boot, boot, dropback and the run wa...Muhammad Ali’s grandson used to fight when challenged because of his name.

NEW YORK — Biaggio Ali Walsh used to think about fighting only when someone wanted to see if the grandson of “The Greatest” was any good himself.Muhammad Ali is one of the biggest and best-known figures in boxing history. When kids in Las Vegas discovered he was also the grandfather of Biaggio and his brother, Nico, they’d challenge the siblings to put on the gloves.“People would find out who me and Nico were related to and they’d say, ‘Oh, can you fight?” Ali Walsh said. “And I’m like, ’I don’t know.’”The answer now is clearly yes.These days, Ali Walsh can’t wait to fight, and he’ll do so again Wednesday at Madison Square Garden with his next bout on a Professional Fighters League card.Five fights into his MMA career, it’s the second time he’ll be competing in an arena where his grandfather participated in some of its most memorable events. Ali lost to Joe Frazier there in the 1971 “Fight of the Century” but won his other seven bouts, including a...Charles Martinet, the voice of Nintendo’s beloved Mario character, steps down
