After last night's game, one thing was proven. Small, light balls are useless. They need to be big and heavy.

Sorry Deb, but I don't know if them Rockies have been in the thin air too long or not, but Francis just couldn't pull it together last night. His relief didn't look that great either. See you tonite for Game 2!

My oh my. Such manners! Why do you find it necessary to persist in personally attacking me? Is that what this site is all about for you?

Dude, I am NOT attacking you. Just poking fun at you. You have to admit you had it coming after your original post. I thought that it was rather rude and arrogant to completely write off the Rockies before a game had even been played, so I responded. It's all in good fun, don't take things so serious. Perhaps I went too far, so I'll back off. I will say once again it was not personal, just giving a bit of back.

Incidentally, I have never personally attacked anyone here, nor will I.

While there are probably some die hard Rockie fans I thought this line from a Yahoo sports story was telling

"Would you prefer Rockies fans, who even during Colorado's September hot streak were coming out to 50,445-seat Coors Fields to the tune of 19,161 and 22,400 and so on?"

How can that be??? Beautiful park, good team and nobody cares until now?


Rocks have to win tonight...if the BoSox jump on this rookie pitcher like they did on Francis it could be good night Irene. It will interesting how he holds up in the WS spotlight...he has done well against the Phils and D-Backs(how the heck they ever made it as far as they did with that crappy lineup blows me away) but now he is facing the big boys with 36K plus sitting on top of him trying to rattle him to his bones


Big Schill doesn't have the velocity he once had but I'll take his 10-2 postseason record


Here we go Red Sox here we go

It sure sounded personal to me, but I'll accept the apology with a pledge to post no more replies to this thread. I don't need the grief! You see, I don't even follow baseball, generally don't watch any part of any game until the World Series, and couldn't tell you who plays for either team anyway....so my opinion is basically valueless! I joined this site to share stuff about HHR's and plan to keep it to that in the future. Over and out!

The two best teams are playing in the ALDS. Both the Indians and the Yankees are playing at the top of their games. Whoever emerges from that series will be the eventual WS champs.

Too funny! Yep...the Red Sox are good for what...one championship per century? Let's check back when the Yanks have their 27th.
Disgruntled Yankee fan

Kid for Rocks looks good on the mound tonight.............................
