How do you stay enthusiastic after three big losses in a row? I can't. What do I conclude? The Red Sox play better baseball.
It's hard to call the Rockies 21 game winning streak a fluke. Maybe they just choked with the national attention and hoopla over their getting to the series at all. Woody Paige in the Denver Post writes:
Those of us who look at life through Cracklin' Rose-colored glasses have to realize that the Rockies are not as good as the Red Sox, the National League is not as good as the American League, the singing at Coors Field of "Hey Baby" is not as good as the singing at Fenway Park of "Sweet Caroline" and Colorado's mountain spring water is not as good as Boston's dirty water.
What are you going to do? The rest of the country is amused. We must laugh, too....And the really good news: We still live in Colorado.
The game is only in the 5th inning and the Rockies could win tonight. But that might just prolong the agony. On the other hand, there's something to be said for positive thinking.
Go Rockies!
