Colorado Rockies

The Colorado Rockies are going to the World Series. This is very hard to believe. I went to a few games in 2005 and 2006, none this year. The games I went to I felt bad for them because the stadium was so empty. They did win the games though, so they weren't that terrible. I can't get into the craziness of the city because I've seen it all before. It all too reminiscent of Atlanta in the early 90's when half of my middle-school skipped class to go to a parade downtown when the Braves didn't win the World Series. And now my graduate school classmates are making jokes about requesting to get out of classes to see the games.

In each of the past 2 years, it has snowed here once before Halloween. It's snows, then several days later gets back to 70 or 80. We are getting close to that time. I'm wondering if they are going to have to call off a game due to snow. I do like the Rockies' color though - purple. That's a team I can root for. As you can tell - not that big of baseball fan but still hoping the Rockies win.
