Too bad they're an eastern team, though. I usually dislike all sports teams from New England. At least our stadium is better, though. Sure, it's not 900 years old, but more action happens. Also remember that the Rockies are trained to lose. Beating the Rockies is like beating a little league team. That's why Denver as a whole was so amazed that they made it this far and everyone rallied behind them. Their home games usually have many more empty seats than fans. It would have been much more awesome for the entire world to see the Rockies win than to see the Red Socks win.  |  IP: Logged Monte L Fullmer Film God Posts: 8367 From: Nampa, Idaho, USA Registered: Nov 2004 posted 10-28-2007 11:41 PM                     quote: Joe Redifer It would have been much more awesome for the entire world to see the Rockies win than to see the Red Socks win. ...and I totally agree with you.  |  IP: Logged Scott Norwood Film God Posts: 8146 From: Boston, MA.

But, this is getting embarassing. If I don't know who to root for, I use Mike's Root Criteria: - Have I been to one of the cities? If so, that's who I root for - If not, do I know anybody from either city? If so, I root for the city whose resident I like the best - If I've never been to either town (or have visited both) and don't know or like anyone from either place, I'll root for the town closest to Montana. In Denver's case, it wins on all three questions. I've been there many times, a couple of my favorite people in the world live there, and it's the closest. So I have no choice. GO ROCKIES, DAMMIT!  |  IP: Logged Scott Norwood Film God Posts: 8146 From: Boston, MA.

(This comment is the essence of rooting for any team playing a seasonal sport. Remember, pitchers and catchers report for Spring Training in early February and the first pre-season games start later that month!)  |  IP: Logged Chad Souder Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 962 From: Waterloo, IA, USA Registered: Feb 2000 posted 11-03-2007 02:31 PM                     quote: Monte L Fullmer ...playing "Texas Hold-em" - doesn't require any athletic ability, but really taxes the brain.. I must respectfully disagree. It does take some physical ability to keep one's hands from shaking, breathing to become rapid, etc. I know it sounds lame, but it is SOME ability and once you've established there is some, I think that makes it a sport. Oh, and go Cubs (next year)  |  IP: Logged
