Colorado Rockies

Colorado Rockies

I am rooting for the Colorado Rockies in the Baseball Playoffs. First of all they are playing the Phillies. I love seeing east coast teams in any sport get beat by other teams. Cuase after they lose its always the funniest thing I have ever heard. Such comments as “The ref blew the game,” “If we could our cheap owner could only spend more money on an over rated free agent,” and my personal favorite “Were Cursed!”

I honestly think the Rockies have a pretty good shot to do some damage this fall. They have played solid baseball since the all star break. They have the best record since the all star break and won 13 of 14 to get into the show. That is the kind of momentum you want going into the playoffs. The Phillies were definitely playing better ball at the end of the season, but had the Mets not choked on a rubber dildo, down the stretch they might not be here.

I am also rooting for the D Backs in that series. Even though I don’t care as much about that one, its always good to see a good curse continue. I don’t care about the AL side. Even though I would bet my house that the Red Sox and Yankees will end up in the ALCS just for TV ratings. Even though I hate both cities I hate New York less, even the Yankees.

This is kind of obscure but there is a conversation going back and forth on the face book group “6”5 230 Lbs. Laser Rocket Arm, Lovers.” It is starting to tick me off a little. First of all the Colts are the champs’ period. If my team lost to the champs I would have no ground to talk shit. This is why I hate East Coast fans. First of all they have horrible attitudes. Ok in the 86 years that the Red Sox were cursed your dam city won 25 championships! 25 championships! Indianapolis will be lucky to get 10 championships before global warming causes the polar ice caps to melt and Manhattan and Los Angeles are under water, making Indianapolis the new New York.

Ok your team got owned in the AFC Championship game. That was a game for the ages. It will go down as one of the greatest games ever played. I was in the stands at that game watching two amazing quarterbacks Tom Brady and Peyton Manning go at it. I will always remember thinking to myself “I don’t care if the Colts win this game, I am glad I am here to witness it.” That’s how amazing that game was. The beautiful thing about it was that it was a clean game. There was no Ty Law holding type calls, or Kordel Stewart stepping out of bounds. You can maybe argue that Kelvin Hayden did have a pass interference call, but whatever. Anyway the Colts won. If my team lost I wouldn’t talk shit.

A Philly fan said and I quote “If Rex Grossman was a real NFL quarterback your team would have never won that Super Bowl.” Rex Grossman was good enough to get the Bears to the big show. He was playing Peyton Manning. Plus Peyton Manning just beat Tom Brady to get to the Big Show. And by the way Joseph Addai and his coming out party happened against the Philadelphia Eagles on national TV when he ran for 174 yards and 4 touchdowns. And the Colts absolutely kick the crap out of the Eagles every time they play them. Like not even a contest.

The Colts and Patriots seasons will not matter till January anyway. The game in November is pointless. The only difference will be where the AFC championship game will be played Boston or Indianapolis. The role reversal is kind of hilarious. It used to be Peyton who put up amazing stats in the regular season and Brady who won all the rings. Now it’s Brady who is a fantasy stud, and Manning who wins the rings. I feel as if there is always a chink in the armor of every team. Everyone knows how to beat the Colts, run the ball and keep Peyton off the field. Play cover two on defense and hope to god he messes up. There is a chink in the Patriots armor somewhere. It is still early so teams are going to have to try to figure it out.

If I was a bettin man, on November 4, I would take the points. The Patriots are a better team talent wise no question about it. But to be honest the Colts have more championship experience. A lot of the players are gone from those Pats teams of a couple years ago and Peyton can score with anyone it should be fun. Go Horse!
