If it's any consolation, Rox fans,
after today, our players can officially schedule golf games with each other for this October.
Josh Byrnes: PLEEEEEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE RE-SIGN ADAM DUNN!!
Sorry
I mean that I’m sorry for you that you’re guys are eliminated, cause that’s always a pisser. Also, I mean sorry in regards to the season that wasn’t. How do the two top teams in the NL West 2007 wind up out of the running in so short a time? Thank God college hoops aren’t that far off.
It's all so sad, isn't it? Really, really sad.
Eh....
don’t really wanna talk about it.
Mark Reynolds leads the majors in errors and strikeouts. That's a good thing, right??
I wonder how active
the game threads during the playoffs will be.

if you’re talking PR threads. I may look in, but can’t say that I’ll be following too closely.

Funny wild pitch

WTF is up with DLR?
Can’t seem to find CDI, much less the plate. C’mon guy!

Good, good.
Swell game so far.

Rox Girl?
Dunno if you’re around, but I’m rooting for your team on ESPN.
Josh Byrnes: PLEEEEEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE RE-SIGN ADAM DUNN!!
Yeah,
but this USC team is much better than that one that went down 23-0 to OSU two years ago before losing. You knew they were gonna come back, and they already are. I would guess the final score is something like 31-24, Troy. They’ve already scored 14 straight.
Josh Byrnes: PLEEEEEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE RE-SIGN ADAM DUNN!!
Yeah.
Right now they need a turnover to definitively reverse Oregon State’s momentum.
Mark Reynolds leads the majors in errors and strikeouts. That's a good thing, right??

what about a blocked field goal?

Gotta enforce the rules at some point.
"Never Surrender Dreams" - Inscription on J. Michael Straczynski's bench
Purple Row - Covering all your Rockies needs!
Yeah, not sure about that one.
Since it’s far down on the right side, how many people actually know it’s there?

That's the problem
with the Fanshots thing. I realize that you may not be able to do much about it, but they’re kind of useless being that far down the page.
It's all so sad, isn't it? Really, really sad.
I'm going to do some remodeling
starting next month.

Serious question.

You didn't.
Um, I thought we all understood I’ve been joking about the whole ban thing.
"Never Surrender Dreams" - Inscription on J. Michael Straczynski's bench
Purple Row - Covering all your Rockies needs!
Well, just wanted to make sure.
Because I didn’t say anything about the Rox’s official scorer, like last time….

Another run!
I want this game to go quickly.

Hmm, Ryan Braun
had a walk-off grand slam.
"Never Surrender Dreams" - Inscription on J. Michael Straczynski's bench
Purple Row - Covering all your Rockies needs!
Yeah, I saw that
Quite the way to win a ball game, eh?
It's all so sad, isn't it? Really, really sad.
The Brewers TV guy sounded like
he was having a party in his pants when he made the call. And then Braun-e-Braun did the untucking jersey thing that he does, but hey. I like the Brewers. I could live with them in the postseason.

Why is Stewart so terrible at hitting recently?
At least he can still play D.

Fireworks
Can you guys see or here fireworks on tv? I’m at work again, and there are fireworks going off outside for some unknown reason (they’re really nearby and echoing off the buildings). I couldn’t figure out what was going on at first.
Saw them behind left field.

Purple Row - Covering all your Rockies needs!
Weird
I can’t for the life of me figure out what they’re for. It’s a Thursday night, can’t a festival.
Krukow and Kuiper
mentioned the fireworks going off, but I don’t believe they said why they were going off.

What's gotten into him?
So much for a pitcher’s ballpark. Barmy has been crushing it this series.
It's all so sad, isn't it? Really, really sad.
Yeah.... what's WITH that guy?
Alluva sudden he’s hitting pre-venison numbers.

“Damn Giants, why do you torment me so?” I asked the raiders the same thing.

Hola folks
I think I may take a trip to Phoenix this weekend. I think one of the teams may let me take a crack at the bat. I still can hit 90 MPH heat.

Your ahead of the curve, then...
But they’ll only let you play if you lack fundamentals, you know? How are you at screwing up on the basepaths and not hitting the cutoff?
If he can strike out a lot
and can’t play defense, then he could play for us. Or if he’s just a reliever that sucks.

Notice how relaxed
the Rocks are the last few days and their play has improved. I think a managerial change is order. They seemed too tight and self focused all year. I think the newspaper spin is starting for a change that may beon the horizon.
by PinchHitLancePainter on Sep 25, 2008 10:17 PM MDT reply actions
I think you could be right...
I’ve been trying to keep quiet on the subject but there are a couple of signs that there might be some rearrangement of the coaching furniture this offseason.
Dare we hope that Dealin' Dan
is acquiring a clue that his coaching staff, and particularly his manager, is fail? It must be a painful process.

Replace "Dealin' Dan" with "Josh Byrnes"
and you could apply that to us as well.

I know a couple of the key personnel
this appears to be a minimum:
Apodaca Gone. The Morales and Francis implosions are at his feet.
Cockrell Gone: He has been tuned out all season.
by PinchHitLancePainter on Sep 25, 2008 10:25 PM MDT up reply actions
And then once you get through those, what's stopping the team from
going a different direction one more step above? After Yost got the axe, the consensus choice for least effective in game manager seems to have fallen to our guy.
I still don't think O'Dowd and the Monforts
will ever jettison the third member of the unholy triumvirate.

I think Hurdle survives the winter,
But I could see him getting a quick hook if we start poorly again.
He has too many pix
of the Bros Monfort in drunken stupers with hookers hanging on them.

Denver pharmacies are so screwed.
Got to put off that retirement a little longer it looks like, although now there’s hope with the Broncos.
I am sure my beloved but defensively clueless Broncos
will more than happily supply the pharmacies with the business they lose when Fuentes goes.

true that...
This one ranks only as a mild hit, like maybe cracked the top 40 in UK but not his best selling stuff here stateside.
Speaking of the UK
I’ll be there in 5 days (w00t!). I can’t decide if it’s a curse or a blessing that I’ll effectively miss half the season.
