Like all of you, I too am still very upset over being swept by the Dodgers this past week. It was the biggest regular season series in Rockies history and in true Rockies fashion they got their asses handed to them. They went from 1st in the division to being completely out of the playoffs in one series. It hurt. It still hurts.
After a huge series loss like the one this week, no competitive person wants to hear from the overly optimistic aunt. The one that tells you everything is going to be okay and there are bigger things in life. I'm not going to tell you there are bigger things in life because that would be a lie because sports are awesome. Sports are the number one escape most of us have from our normal day to day lives. I'm also not going to tell you that everything is going to be okay either because right now the Rockies are out of the playoffs and that is 100% completely opposite of okay. I will however try in inject some optimism into this blog and into this fanbase. Because god dammit the Rockies are not dead. The Rox are 1.5 back of St. Louis for the final Wild Card spot with 10 games to go and a game in hand over the Cardinals. 10 games! There are still 10 games left with 7 of them being in Denver. The Rockies have Arizona, Philadelphia and Washington left to play and those are all very, very winnable series. All of those teams are done in terms of making the playoffs. Colorado just needs to catch some momentum, a spark, something to bring some life into this lineup and this team can steamroll through the last 3 series. And it's not like the Cardinals are playing all that great either. 5-5 in their last 10 and they have San Fran, Milwaukee and Chicago to finish off the year. That ain't no walk in the park. St. Louis' last two series are against very good division rivals who most definitely don't want to see them in the postseason. The Rockies can do this and it starts tonight. LETS. FUCKING. GO.
