August? - Rockies? - Contention?!?!?


OK - it's August, usually the time of the year when Broncos fans are chomping at the bit to get the football season underway. (As someone who grew up in NJ suffering with the Giants for a long time, it took me a long while to get used to the Broncos being the lead story on the nightly news in the off-season!).

But what's this?

Baseball is still being spoken in the Mile-High City? IN AUGUST?!?!? There's gotta be something wrong with this? No?!?!? Really???

What gives?!?! The Rockies were only 4 games out of first in the NL-West as of this morning and they put a 19 - 4 thrashing on the BrewCrew today at home. Nicely done Tulowitzki - 17 points for my fantasy team today alone after going 4 - 5 with 2 doubles and an HR.

Finally, it seems the team has some chemistry - now if only the GM will leave things alone as best as possible in the off-season, then maybe next year it could be a very fun year of baseball in the Rocky Mountains!

Sure beats the hell out of having to turn the paper upside-down just to see your team in first place!!
