physically was really -- painful thing to grasp. >> reporter: michelle studied aurora's face and recognized a lot of her when she was a little girl. >> i think she had my name. and dad's handsome feet.

one person was taken into custody. it's really about safety. i think there's a lot more that could be done. >> some colorado schools have never done an active shooter or lockdown drill. and the schools don't have guidelines to use in training. >> reporter: the goal of any drill is to make sure the reaction to the emergency becomes second nature. this is a lockdown in lakewood. the students know exactly what to do and where to go. the principal helped set up a camera inside the classroom.

school safety after his daughter was killed in a shooting. >> if we're gonna look at legislation, it can't simply be an unfunded mandate. you need to have the fiscal fortitude to make it meaningful and to fund. >> reporter: findings are something to consider but stop short of promising. >> it is the function of this place to consider how to motivate that. how do you make people care more that results in more safety? whether that turns into specific mandates that will require funding still remains to be seen. >> he says his school safety committee will continue talking about what needs to be done. partly because colorado is so passionate about local control, the legislature does fund the

>> so we don't have federal mandates on this. and you looked at what other states are doing. >> indiana is an interesting example. it mandates and pays for the staff to get training every year. schools are required in indiana to have a school safety smift. specialist -- safety specialist. the director tells us the system works because everybody is trained on best practices which they implement in their own school districts. if they have to travel for training, lodging is covered as well. no snow will become the first part of a weekend with temperatures in the 70s. performers taking the stage during saturday's intermission.

enough mistakes to fill an air-ball! pass lands in the front row. jakarr sampson looks, but they hustle down and steal it back. time! denver still somehow had a chance. augustine got stripped in the final seconds. colorado state beat new mexico. smallest guy on the court, john dylan. and he's gone stop it! rams win 86-67. i wouldn't blame brock osweiler if he told the broncos he wasn't ready to discuss a contract yet. you make me wait, i make you wait! you know, make 'em squirm! the original plan was to postpone negotiations with osweiler until peyton

more than two weeks has passed since the super bowl and there's only two more until brock becomes a free agent. so the team plans to approach osweiler's agent at the nfl scouting combine in indianapolis. >> he can lead them to a no. 1 playoff seed, i think, through the kubiak system. it is tailor made for him. they want the quarterback to move, to roll out. brock is athletic that way. not fast but he can move. he can throw on the run. he has a better arm than peyton manning. he can do more damage on offense offense. i think he can get into the postseason. whether he has the poise to come through in the playoffs, that remains to be seen.

chance at all in the playoffs. the red soxs and the rockies traded troy tulowitzki to the blue jays for jose reyes. major league baseball commissioner rob manfred placed reyes on leave today because of his criminal proceedings. >> hopefully gonna have some clarity on that in the near future. and for that, i said before, you talk about depth. we

descalso, and young talented kids. thing. when you have players like that is correct we'll figure it out. >> strange but true. even though he hasn't taken a snap in three years, tim tebow finished 5th in a 2016 poll regarding america's favorite quarterbacks. strange but true. they also had who is your least favorite quarterback. tom brady 1st
