Welcome back Brad.

Well that's more like it.

Rockies mounting a mind-boggling comeback against a team that could be reasonably be called "hot".

Fuentes shutting any afterthoughts down.

Super-encouraging.

Weird and not totally unrelated...i'm out drinking a glass of wine watering my tiny front yard at ~11:00, roughly one-half hour ago. 4 drunken gals (obviously recently disembarked from the 38 bus) came rambling down Julian all pumped about the victory. Pretty cool. After an acknowledgment of mutual joy based on the evening's victory, they invited me down to 3 Dogs for beers.

Doubtful that Sammy is a valid baby & house sitter to afford me some odd trip down to the local tavern to revel with these surprising Rockie/chick fans deadset on tearing up the Highlands.

Back to the Rockies' performance/win. I feel like at the very least, respectability may come for this team when the envisioned 2008 lineup takes the field together...make no mistake, from where I sit this team has no chance of sniffing the postseason, but winning games, one at a time (with drama no less!) still makes for a much better summer.
