Being a Colorado Rockies fan has been a rough thing to be. There has been very little to cheer for through the years. We have had a decent season here and there and that unforgettable World Series run but for the most part it has been brutal.
It was a scary moment during the game on Tuesday night, when a hit by Carlos Gonzales of the Colorado Rockies drilled Arizona Diamondbacks Pitcher Archie Bradley in the face, coming off of the bat at a speed of 115 mph.
The Colorado Rockies are off to a fantastic start of their 2015 season, as they swept the series last night in Milwaukee, taking the win against the Brewers in extra innings.
Today is the beginning of our Colorado Rockies 2015 regular season in baseball. We are still in the pennant hunt as of today. The Rockies are very loved but have not given us much to cheer about for several years.
I think it's safe to say most of thought the Broncos were going to the Super Bowl this year and giving us a chance to cheer for a championship victory. I still think they are really close to bringing it home.
As if this Colorado Rockies season wasn't going bad enough between the owner being a jerk to fans and the team struggling on the field once again, now the team's superstar player, Troy Tulowitzki, is done for the year as he will have surgery on his left hip Friday (August 14) in Vail.
Obviously the way to sell a professional sports franchise is not by putting them on Craigslist. It's a joke, son, but a good one at that. However, it seems as though Dick Monfort has to get out as owner of the Colorado Rockies!
As a kid who played sports growing up, I can think of nothing that would be cooler than making it all the way to the top level in a sport, putting on a big league uniform, and getting to play in front of my family and friends near my hometown. That exact dream is about to come true for former Rocky Mountain High School pitcher, Marco Gonzales.
If you follow Colorado Rockies baseball at all, you most likely heard about the San Francisco Giants announcer who accused the Rockies shortstop, Troy Tulowitzki, of cheating by stealing signs from the other teams at Coors Field. Thursday (May 22nd) the DJ at the Rockies home park made great light of the situation!
