As the playoffs arrive some fans baseball seasons have ended so who do you root for? The Yanks? D-Backs? BoSox? Even the Angles? Before the playoffs I jumped on the bandwagon of being a Rockies fan because finally they were doing great. Now I have a new reason to root for them and not only because of their hot wining streak or the numbers that are put up or who's on the team and so do you.
Mike Coolbaugh died after a line drive hit him. He left behind a very pregnant wife and 2 little boys 5 and 3.
After a team vote done completely on their own the Rockies as a team have decided to give Mikes wife a full share of the Rockies playoff money winings. This means whatever money the Rockies make in the playofss 110% of that is going to her and the kids.
This to me was the most thoughtful thing I have seen in a while.
So dont root for the Rockies just because. If you have to have a reason to root for them other then because they are just there or whos on the team or whatever. Root for them because this was the classiest thing to happen to baseball in a long time.
With all the drama with the steriods this year it was refreshing to know that there is still something positive in baseball and for what the Rox are doing other then wining I will forever and always be a fan.
I am kind of pulling for the Rockies, because they slummed with my Pirates for years, and I am always glad when one of the fellow cellar dwellers break through. Really I would be fine with anybody but the Cubs, because I am sick of tired of hearing their fans pissing and moaning and then expecting everybody to feel sorry for them.
It's easy. I'm cheering against NY and the smaller market NL teams. Of course, my sister expects me to yell for the Rockies and I did in extra innings on Monday. Sweet win.
Buckles- Isnt that what a curse is? The Cubs fans shouldnt act so shocked.
Husker- The win monday was sweet.
Vearl I am on football to but in Colorado we dont know what its like to have football hockey and baseball going on all at once. This weekend is going to be very busy because the Broncos Rocks and Avs all play at home this weekend

I am 22 and I am a huge Broncos and Avalanche fan cant say the Rockies suck anymore and I never got into basketball. I should probably go and change my favorites seems how some of the people where here when I first started blogging in 2005 and they are not here anymore but I just choose not to right now.
