Rockies Fans Need To Bust Out
Every single person who chooses to disrobe at a sporting event in front of thousands of people is usually grinning from ear-to-ear, hypnotized by a state of joyfulness they've lost while suffering through the daily malaise of being fully-clothed....
Mmmff (Yawn) Good Morning ... Is The Padres Game Over Yet?
As a weary nation slept peacefully, the Rockies' Kip Wells struck out Padres' pitcher Glendon Rusch to end the longest game in either team's history; a 22-inning, 2-1 win for Colorado at Petco Park. It all ended at 1:21 a.m. PST — 4:21 on the east coast — 6 hours, 16 minutes after it had begun. By t...
The Colorado Rockies Own All The Hip Catchphrases
Remember when Pat Riley trademarked the phrase "Three-peat?" It's a good thing he did, because, you know, his team couldn't three-peat in the NBDL right now. Well, the Colorado Rockies have absorbed Riley's lesson: They're attempting to trademark the term "Rocktober."...

Watch Where You Park Your Truck Around The Cows

Papelbon's Glove Has Yet To Come Down
• Feel It Again. And howzabout a little love for Terry Francona. I've happily lobbed hot coals at the guy's nuts for four seasons now, but I appreciate everything he's done to steer the ship and stick to the game plan. He's 8-0 in managing World Series games, has very likely seen DeMarlo Hale withou...
The Red Sox Could Start Getting Used To This
The World Series was mostly lacking drama this year, but by now, we should be awfully used to that. Since the outstanding 2002 World Series, we've had one series go six games, one go five and three sweeps. Not that Red Sox fans care anyway....
Your World Series Champion Boston Red Sox
The Rockies did the best they could to make a game, or a series, out of it, but it just wasn't happening: The Boston Red Sox were not to be denied. They have won their second World Series in four years, and their seventh overall. (That actually puts them fourth all time, behind the Yankees, Cardina...
Boston's Rookies Are Too Much For Colorado
Who needs Papi, Manny, and Beckett when you've got Dustin, Jacoby, and Matsuzaka? The trio of rookies set the tone for the Boston Red Sox in their Game 3 victory over the Colorado Rockies. Jacoby Ellsbury moved into the leadoff spot and he responded with four big hits. Fellow rookie Dustin Pedroia m...
Once In a Blue Moon
The World Series has finally come to the hallowed grounds of Coors Field and Denver is welcoming the Red Sox with balmy 36 degree weather. It's Dice-K vs. Fogg and they're both going to be wielding the half-frozen lumber. Terry Francona has opted to hold Kevin Youkilis' bat and glove, somebody shoul...

Rockies Might Have Just Missed Their Chance To Steal One
In the first game of the World Series, the Rockies looked tentative, scared, confused and overmatched. They corrected almost all those problems last night in Game 2 ... and they still lost. This doesn't look good....

OK, Rockies, Let's Try To Make This Interesting
As always, if it doesn't involve the Cardinals, we are mostly just cheering for a close series. And if the Red Sox smash the Rockies again tonight, we have a feeling we are not going to see a close series....

Today In Dumb Mayoral Wagers
So you know those dumb mayoral bets made on every major sporting event, the ones supposed to show off the locally made products? Well, the Boston and Denver mayors made them this year ... and, as usual, they're dumb and full of corporate sponsorship....
