Seeing life. Through the bottom of a stadium beer cup. It's the only way...

Crazy fun night out at the old ball yard last evening. Especially sweet to kick off the homestand with a win against the Cubs.
Rockies were able to take advantage of the late Zambrano scratch and jump all over Marshall early, not to mention tiring out the bullpen after Marshall got the 2nd inning hook.
Really encouraging night at the plate for Fowler and Car-Go, and even I-Dog able to contribute with the game's only HR. Tracy finally sits the slumptastic Barmes (sheesh, 2 for his last 46?!?).
Nice to see that the majority of fans were for the home team, my guess is 2/3rds of the crowd were Rockies backers.

Obligatory pre & post game Natty Lights at Swanky's, on top of the numerous stadium brews, making for a hazy subdued Saturday at the Tooth household.

Keep rolling, Rocks.....

Strangely, that picture was on the cover of my church's bulletin this morning.

I didn't know Javier and C's did bulletins...

Boy, I sure was slow to catch on the SNFU reference.....pretty sweet game today. Lou might have had a point, but we beat by about fitty anyway.

TD, your slowness in recognizing SNFU references is troubling.
The Rockies' suddenly opportunistic offense is not.

I am ashamed of my delayed comprehension. Maybe because I was seeing life through the bottom of an afternoon screwdriver glass when I read it initially....

Who the hell is pitching tonight?
