I seem to remember at least one FCB member with Rockies in his screen name. And perhaps one other Rockies fan as well? Or maybe I'm making that up, since I haven't seen them post for a long time.
So yeah it'll mostly be just me venting on this thread. At least until my usual apathy returns, and...
Yeah that's true. And in all honesty I don't think the Rockies will really beat their all time worst season record by 10 losses.
But I really made this thread for just to hate on this franchise. This damned franchise, and its utterly incompetent owner, who have flatly refused to bring good...
Under.
Not only are the Rox heading toward their worst start in franchise history, they are also leading the NL in errors.
Edit: I meant over! I read the question and then my pea brain translated it as over/under on WINS not losses. I will take the under on wins and over on losses :-)
For some reason I'm listening to the game tonight on the radio. I don't mind Jerry Schemel, but our other guy Jack Corrigan drives me nuts. Something about the cadence of his call, and especially the intonation. I know it's picky, but I like listening to games on the radio. And there are local...
The Rockies just got swept by the Padres in a 3-game series.
But they didn't just get swept, they got shut out in all three games, with their hitters producing 9 hits in 27 innings of "major league" baseball.
On the plus side, it's nice to see the Padres playing this well. I've always had a...
Never encountered this thread before, but it's helpful stuff. I'm pretty much convinced I need to check Alomar (#27) off my checklist. Such a bizarre issue.
Thanks, but I've spent so much on Alomar cards the past few months that I'm feeling soiled. And spent out. Just on RA.
Why not put that card up on the bay? He's a somewhat recent HOF inductee you know...
Damn, really? I also did not know that. It sucks he never won a WS. I met him briefly at spring training in Arizona in the mid 90's. The autographed poster is still hanging in my sun room. Although it's been so bleached by years of sun that you'd never know who the signatures are. But I do...
Ja, you girly men are not pumped enough to handle the massive biceps involved in this manly acquisition. That's right. You would rather lay there eating your girly pastries, swinging in your back flab that you stretched out to make a flab hammock!
So one of my 2025 collecting goals was to land one White Whale. As it is ever year. Some years hit, some years miss. But this year...it's a hit baby! I'll post it as soon as it arrives.
Stay tuned for some 90's parallel pumpitude!
Man. I did not remember AT ALL that he went to STL after the Rockies. Let alone that he actually played in a WS for them. I'm serious. This was news to me, 20 years after the fact.
Well then.
Anyway, he did have a good series that year. Too bad the Cards got swept. I do remember this one as...
Right now in the 8th, it's Milwaukee 10, Colorado 2. So I'm gonna go way out on a limb and say the Rockies will be 2-9 after this game, in a 3-way tie for worst record in MLB.
This club usually comes out and performs somewhat respectably - and I say somewhat - for the first month or two of the...
Correction. I stopped to think about this for a second. Here's the actual bottom of the list of things that are good about the Rockies.
