Rockies tie a franchise record and Brandon Marshall

Well, not even two full years later and the Rockies have tied their club mark with 11 wins in a row. No one thought the Rockies would sniff .500 based on what we had seen during the first two months of the season. It was nice to see Garrett Atkins get three hits and Todd Helton with yet another multi hit game. The Rockies lineup from 1-8 are deadly no matter what. As soon as Chris Ianetta gets it going and the Pitching can keep going into the 7th inning, there’s no reason why this team won’t make it to the playoffs. With that, it’s still June and we have 3 ½ months to go. We know how bad the Rockies can play so that makes me not want to say anything about the wild card, or just playoffs in general. They have the talent to go to the playoffs, that’s for sure, but if they can keep riding series wins, we will be seeing our Rockies in the playoffs.


Now, shifting gears to the NFL. I have not written anything really about the Broncos because I hate all the offseason crap that goes on in the NFL. I wanted to talk about Brandon Marshall. Brandon, really? You’re going to hold out for a contract? Hmmm, why is this? Probably because you know you won’t get anywhere close to the numbers this upcoming season than what you had with Cutler last season. I guess if I were him, this is probably my best chance to get something. No Jay Cutler, no catching 20 passes a game, because the Broncos will not see that many balls flying around Invesco this year. He knows it and the Broncos know it. The funny thing is, no one seems to care. Especially coach McDaniels who said they would win with what they got if he were not there. Let the fiasco begin.
