I am still planning on moving to Denver. I will keep my old baseball team..

Everyone made such a big deal about of the White Sox last year, but the Rockies are clearly so much worse than they were

My fever broke after 28 years but now I am a Mets fan again, is that better?

The Rockies were my first team so I have a fondness for them. I can’t watch the games it’s way too much secondhand embarrassment

The worst-run franchise in professional sports. It's a beautiful park too, just a shame they can't get a real team to play in it.

At least Pirate fans know the owner doesn't care about anything but turning a profit. The Rockies owner *thinks* he's good.

I’m sure they will sweep the Yankees this series, because that is how the Yankees play baseball when they are in 1st place.

Bring relegation to US sports. There's gotta be a AAA team that deserves a shot.

I'm beginning to think you can, in fact, stop the rock

Fun fact: there is actually a tick-borne illness called Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever!

Ticks truly unheralded. Shout out to ticks

it literally killed a college football coach https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Tatum

I have treated patients for it!

will always remember a park ranger that said if ever bitten by a tick, to make sure to save the remains so that it could be tested.

Sure, it might seem like a good time, until your pitching staff has a 5.82 ERA through 52 games.

I think 100 wins in a row is coming. They’re due

Yeah that’s true it’s called mean reversion

They saw the White Sox and thought "those are rookie numbers" and I appreciate them so much for that

They need to go back to their 90's roots. Just get a bunch of guys that can mash and hope for the best. Maybe you'll make the playoffs, maybe you won't, but everyone will have a good time.

I had rockies fever twice as a child and it never did me any harm. Meanwhile the ‘vaccine’ against it leaves thousands unable to enjoy sports at all
