He owned a ranch next door to the ranch I grew up on in New Mexico.

He had an obsession with introducing species that were either not native to the area or so long extinct from the area that reintroducing them would cause all sorts of issues.

It was annoying.

Make the catcher throw w/ cold hands

No records in the last 10 years should count.

This.

Very good point, sir…

At this point in the season, all the Rockies' numbers are magic.

Dear Rockies - Please annoy the national media and the MLB by beating the Phillies :)

Troy Tulowitzki - THE best SS in the game..nuff said
Yorvit Torrealba - En Fuego
Brad Hawpe- Hey Big Bad Brad, hits please!

Who does Philly have left in their pen?

Seems like they’ve used up most of their better pitchers already, which would seem to favor us down the stretch.

Alanna Rizzo is my dream girl.

I'm just a little worried about Lidge.

Cuz no matter what, the man has good stuff. Hard to hit.

Our 3rd baseman
