he should root for the rockies, its his home state team. i'd be very shocked if he didn't get the rockies game. rockies are a good team to root for anyways.

but i think he is from utah and might be as much as 7 hours away....


also, i'm not certain you are permitted to help given your dallas cowboys allegiance

we're talking baseball here not football. if this was football talk yes i'd shut up. lol

yes your right he is from utah but 7 hours isn't that far. the mariners have fans in montana and idhao.

if you decide to become a rockies fan, just plan on enjoying bash em baseball

Does that mean that they are a physical team?

Does that mean that they are loaded with sluggers?

Apparently since their first season in 1993, overall they are a losing team with .478 franchise record.

I take it baseball is the same in comparison to basketball where as anythin gunder.500 is considered "losing"?

they play in thin air....more HR's

interesting...they say they now store Rockies baseballs in a humidor which helps cut down the flight time of hits, to the point that HR's have fallen closer to the league average

I like the idea of dc going through the flow chart 81 posted.

i'd offer that that flow chart is fraudulent...and a complete waste of time.

well that's b/c the Phillies are next to the Cubs and Brewers...btw I finally did some research on who I should have rooted for in baseball as a kid and the Mets/Yanks were 300+ miles away, the Blue Jays 220 miles away, and the Expos were 180 miles away. However this was before the advent of baseball on television every night so I would have had to learned French Canadian over the radio to follow them. Also this makes the Montreal Allouettes my non-fraudulent football team, Canadians for hockey, while basketball should be the Knicks.

you should have been an expos fan and you should be a current nationals fan. you would have all kinds of credibility if that were the case. they even followed you down to your next of the woods (dc/bmore)



i saw some dude wearing an expos jersey earlier this year when the phils played the nats. looked cool as shit. those early 90's expos teams were pretty damn good too. if it weren't for the strike...

The Cell is on my list of ball parks attended. it's nice, but it looks aweful. just way to big of a gap between the lower level and the upper level due to the suites. makes it look like there is a three story building between the sections.
