The Fabulous Colorado Rockies
SO I get 4 free tickets to see the Rockies vs. Cardinals on Wednesday. I'm pretty excited about it. Great seats (thirdbase side, 9th row), 2006 World Series Champs... Puljos, Ekstein, Rolen, Encarnacion.... Sure. It'll be fun. Rockies are on a seven game winning streak, I'm pumped.
No, not while I'm there. Rockies lose a sad effort to the Cardinals... who by the was are way under .500 entering June. But we are talking about the Rockies here and Ekstein's on the DL.
So the next day, my roommate gets 2 more tickets, this time on the firstbase side, row 2. I'm pumped. I've never really had a back-to-back Rockies experience. Plus, who knows, maybe Puljos will make some diving play into our laps. One can dream right?
Wrong. No Puljos, no Ekstein, instead I'm stuck with staring at Speizio's ass all game. And then the one semi-close catch (about 3-4 seats over) Encarnacion can't even make the catch and the ball bounces into the stands and some lame guy gets it and thinks twice about giving it to some kid. Bummer. Rockies lost both games I went to. It was sad.
But, I refuse to give up hope for the Rockies. Granted 80% of the fans at any given time are rooting against the Rockies and ticket sales are up because of the Yankees in June. WOW.
People don't understand how great Coors Field is. The Colorado Rockies have built an outstanding organization. They just need to win, a lot of games. They just need an outstanding pitching staff, a reliable bullpen and some more dominant hitting.
One day.... mark my words... one day, The Colorado Rockies WILL make the play-offs. They WILL win a penant and they WILL advance to a World Series. They may not win it, but that's when the coat-tale/fair weather fans will emerge. I just think it's lame they have to wait until then.
Bottom line, I'm a baseball fan. This is where I live, this is where I grew up. I saw Coors Field being built. I saw the Rockies make their first and only play-off wild-card berth. I saw them flop after that. But I will continue to see them play, whether it's against the Cardinals, the Yankees or even the Royals. I'm will go to watch baseball.
