NLCS Blogdome: Taste The Pennant
A quick look at what the Internets are saying about the Rockies' 3-2 win in over the Diamondbacks in Game 2 of the National League Championship Series ......
Groundskeeper Willy To The Rescue
Did I stay up late to watch Willy Taveras' amazing game-saving catch? No. Red Bull tends to give me the runs, not wings. But have I already watched it a few hundred times on SportsCenter this morning? You betcha! God is good, Christopher Llyod is great....
NLCS Blogdome: Rockies Clear First Hurdle
What they're saying out there in the ether about the Rockies' 5-1 win over the Diamondbacks in Game 1 of the National League Championship Series ......
Nobody Will Stop The Rampaging Monster That Is The Colorado Rockies
Whatever you think of the Diamondbacks' fan display last night — an embarrassment, an isolated incident, a roundabout way to recycle — we don't understand why anyone is considering it a response to a "controversial" play. It was not a controversial call; Justin Upton clearly brought up his arm to kn...
The Rockies Have Become Vaguely Ridiculous
We're not sure what the heck has happened to the Colorado Rockies in the last month, but they've now won 18 of 19 games. They dominated tonight, once again. It's probably God. We're not gonna question it: We're just gonna stand, jaw agape, and wonder, if they sweep the rest of the postseason, if th...
The Playoffs Are Back On, Finally
The last couple of days without baseball just felt interminable, didn't they? Two days off, in the middle of October? Inconceivable!...
NLCS Pants Party: Diamondbacks Vs. Rockies
Obviously, no one would have predicted this matchup coming in, but that is, after all, the fun of all this. Plus, in a way, it's nice to have two franchises born in the '90s battling it out for the World Series. There's a certain modern nature to it; maybe they'll run the bases with jet packs....
Rockies Still Aware They're The Chosen Ones
So you remember how the Rockies talked about how they're a Christian clubhouse, and how it raised a big stink and they backed off and lowered their profile? Well, they're at it again, and they're legitimately claiming that their amazing late-season run is the result of God's will....
Fans Love Their Colorado Rockies
Because the Yankees — who, we might add, aren't in the playoffs anymore — are taking up too much media space, we thought we'd honor each of the four teams left with a roundup of the nicest things each team's best blogs could say about them. See? We're sweet! Right now: The Colorado Rockies....
A Perpetual Danger Of Sitting On Bleachers
We're not sure what the circumstances behind this photo are — Did she have to pee? Was it unusually hot in Colorado that night? Was she just waiting for the right moment, when everyone was distracted, to finally pull down those pants? — but we suppose there are worse ways to celebrate the Rockies' e...
Which One Is The Dinosaur? We Keep Forgetting
Who is more despised among Colorado Rockies fans right now; their own mascot, Dinger, or Tony Kornheiser? It's a close call, and there's actually a petition afloat to get rid of one of them once and for all....
Citizens Bank Park Is Off To A Thrilling Postseason Start
You know, it sure does seem like there are a lot of forlorn, lonely looking Phillies fans pictures on the wire today. And why wouldn't there be?...
NLDS Game 2 Live Blog: Phillies Vs. Rockies
You can't expect the Phillies' top stars to go hitless again, but it's clear that they're in some serious trouble if they lose this game. It's Franklin Morales for the Rockies and Kyle Kendrick for the Phillies, and if that doesn't scream Playoff Baseball, we don't know what does....
Some Quiet, Bewildered Phillies Fans
We'll be doing short wrapup posts about each of yesterday's games, by the way. In case you're wondering....
NLDS Game 1 Live Blog: Phillies Vs. Rockies
OK, the playoffs are here, and you're stuck at work. Worry not!...
Clint Hurdle Has Always Been A Romantic
We are all in the midst of Rockies Fever — oh, and Phillies Fever; we're in the midst of that too — so we take a time out to remember manager Clint Hurdle's finest moment: The time he was arrested for trying to bring a little love to the planet....
Where My Team Stands: Colorado Rockies
If we've learned anything about Octobers the last few years, it's that the month tests, stretches and hones every aspect of loyalty fandom....
Playoff Pants Party: Phillies Vs. Rockies
The best part about the playoffs is that every team can, legitimately, be considered a "team of destiny." The only team last year that probably didn't have a claim as a "team of destiny" going into the playoffs was the team who won the World Series....
