Probably Time For The Rockies To Wrap This Up
The Colorado Rockies have a rather serious opportunity to clinch their first trip to the World Series in their history tonight — their "history" being what it is — and it should happen about 1:30 a.m. tomorrow morning. We cannot imagine how cold it's going to be, and we know playoff cold....

Views of the NLCS Game 3 from around the Internets....
Will They Even Bother Playing A Game 4?
Diamondbacks are now understanding what Cubs fans went through last week; they're experiencing a series where absolutely nothing goes right, and it's pretty much over before you had quite adjusted to the fact that it had started in the first place....
The Rockies Will Destroy All That You Hold Dear, Without Even Trying
You can go ahead and call this NLCS boring. The Colorado Rockies fans surely don't think so. It's a 3-0 lead, and the Rockies have now won a ridiculous 20 of their last 21 games. We don't understand anything anymore, not that anyone ever did....
Take Me Up To The Mile-High City
Now that was a solid sports weekend! Two playoff baseball games went to extra innings; Kentucky and Oregon State upset the top two teams in the nation; Midnight Madness kicked off; we've got the Pats and the 'Boys duking it out; there was probably a NASCAR crash in there somewhere ... action packed,...
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....
Rockies Sweep, Just As They Prayed For
Major League Baseball's only team with an official religious affiliation is moving on to their first National League Championship Series. Although it's a new level of baseball for the young franchise there will be a sense of familiarity with their opponent. With Arizona and Colorado each sweeping th...
Confounding Diamondbacks Complete the Sweep
The Diamondbacks needed just one pitch to establish a lead that they would never relinquish. Chris Young, easily the most overlooked of the National League's top three rookies, starting things off wing a bang when he deposited Rich Hill's first offering into the left field bleachers of Wrigley Field...
Last Rites For the Cubs and Phillies
If the Phillies and Cubs were planning on winning some games this post season they'd be wise to get things started tonight. Chicago is already underway with Arizona and things are going just as expected, 1-0 Diamondbacks after a third of an inning. The Wrigley faithful were silenced immediately cour...
The NLDS ... After Dark!
It's difficult, even for a Cardinals fan, to find much joy in these late-night Diamondback shellackings of the Cubs. A team that was outscored for the season is dominating a fellow division champion. Fortunately, the games have been too late for any children to see the carnage....
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....
