G, the Baltimore Oriole.

As you have probably learned, Garrett Atkins has been traded to the Baltimore Orioles, away from Coors Field and Rockies fans who love him.
He now wears No.25, but at least he is their starting 3rd baseman.  I hope to see this change invigorate his batting, and a return to the G that helped take the Rox to the WS.

Spring Training time!

This blog has been quieter than a damned cemetery lately, and after looking at pics from Spring Training, I think it needs reviving.  I'm hoping some people will return and help me keep this place awake!

Holliday a Cardinal

Coming off his batting slump with the A's, the newly traded Hot Rox fav, Matt Holliday has had 9 AB's, for 6 hits, 2 rbi's and 2 runs. Not bad considering he only managed 99 hits in 93 games in Oakland.

Keep it up Matt!

This old blog has been neglected

The ESPY's have been, and here are some pics from them!

Mark Sanchez winning the Hot Rookie QB award.

Matthew Stafford, not winning the Hot Rookie QB award, but picking up the Puffy Boy award.

Tim Tebow, looking pretty good, but damn, lose the pleated pants!

Kurt and Brenda Warner. Kurt may have lost the SB, but looking at Big Ben below, he definitely wins the HOT SB QB award.

Just for Katie! Michael Phelps!

The Williams sisters, Serena....

and Venus. I like Serena's dress better. It is very flattering to her muscular figure.

So long...

This is tough, because I don't want feelings to be hurt, but I think it is obvious that this blog is going downhill.

It is nothing like it once was, and Tiffany has already left. I just have to admit it to you all that I no longer want to post here. Which I think is obvious from my lack of doing so lately. I have to be honest and tell you that it is because I feel like I put a lot of effort into my posts and into the blog in general, and I get nothing back.

So...this is my goodbye to this blog that I worked very hard to create. I am going to make my own blog, that is just mine. I will link it here once I create it, then I am going to leave here. I'm sorry...I just feel really frustrated with the posting here.

You other ladies of course can keep it up...don't quit because I did.

Go Rockies and Go Broncos!


EDIT: Here is the link to my new blog: http://at-the-dish.blogspot.com/
I really liked that name so I decided to switch it for my sports blog. There isn't much there now, but I plan to make it as good as I can.

I wanna be a Roxstar!

I was driving home from work tonight and was listening to this song, and it just brought back so many great memories of our post season run, and the fabulous hotness of our Rox!

Oh my goodness...

The Rockies are on a blessed 11 game streak. Today, even with the wannabe base stealing funnel cloud, the Rockies won 7-1. Jason Hammel got the win. That's awesomeness.

Once again, we had everyone contribute. Chris had a base clearing double. That was after an intention walk on Tulo.

Iannetta was 1-4 with 1 run and 3 RBIs. He's batting .220.
Tulo was 0-2 with 1 run, 1 RBI. He's batting .241. Tulo has really made improvements.

On Friday, Ubaldo pitched his second complete game. He was awesome. Ubaldo was 1-2, with an RBI. He's batting at a .286. His pitching stats for the game were 8 hits; with 4 runs, the runs were all earned; 4 walks; 3 strike-outs; and he gave up one homerun.
Stewart did well too. Well, as in he didn't hit anything but he did get hit.

Jeff Baker was hitting off of a tee. So that's good. I'm just not sure if they have room for him, or if the Rockies even need him anymore.
