Rocky Mountain Men

If you are any kind of sports fan you MUST start paying attention to what the Colorado Rockies are up to. Last night, the Rockies pulled more late inning heroics to defeat the Arizona Diamondbacks in the 11th inning 3-2. The Rockies are the first NL team to win the first 5 games of the postseason since the Cincinnati Reds did it in 1976 (first NL team to do it since Wild Card was introduced).

What else have they done? In their last 20 games they are 19-1. How do they do it? The Rockies set a Major League record for highest fielding percentage in a season with their .98925 mark this year. These guys are insane! Rockies look like a team of destiny. It may not be sexy to root for the Rockies this year, but be honest, none of us are really sexy anyways. Is winning all the time sexy? So, if your team is long out of the World Series hunt, root for the good guys.
