As any frustrated fan would do, I have have been looking for answers (and excuses) lately. Why couldn't the Nuggets finally win a first round playoff series? Why couldn't they win just one game? Why can't the Avs keep up with the Red Wings? Why can't the Broncos even make the playoffs?
I think I might have figured it out.
The Colorado Rockies used up every last drop of Denver's good sports karma during last year's World Series run. Sorry Nuggs, Avs, and Broncos... they drank your milkshake! They drank it up!
Was it worth it? I don't know... you have to admit, Rocktober was pretty awesome. I guess I'm ok with trading a Roxs World Series appearance for one year of utter disappointment with the rest of Denver's big four.
But anything more would be intolerable. So start sending good vibes into the sports universe, and pray to whatever sports gods you worship. Personally, I've found Ganesh to be quite accommodating.

If all you have left to write about is the Rockies... I feel for you. :) Maybe the Nuggets will be very very exciting this off-season with some high-profile crimes. Or don't we have a soccer team or something?
I know, right. I'm counting on an active Nuggets offseason to get me through the summer. Otherwise, it's going to be a long couple months of Rockies and Rapids. I'm thinking in-depth player bios, followed by manager/coach bios, followed by park employee bios. That should carry me through to October.
Did you know that Matt Holliday was born January 15, 1980, in Stillwater, Oklahoma? He and his wife, Leslee, have two sons, Jackson and Ethan, ages 4 and 1.
Can Ganesh play PG for the Nuggets next season?
I do what I can to pray to Ganesh, but he's got a heck of a lot of obstacles to remove (e.g., Karl).
Got something to say?
