By "Rockies" do you  mean a baseball team named Rockies"? I'm not familiar with one named that but then I don't keep track of ball playing sports. I was just curious.

Red Sox are going to pwn the Rockies...

With the Colorado thin air it means hits go farther, thus more Home Runs.

The Rockies get to play in very thick air.

LOL......that issue has been resolved.  Think humidor.  Even if that were still the case, you do realize that the Rockies get to bat too, right?

BTW......the Rockies beat the Sox 2 games to 1 in Boston earlier this year.

That is true, but I can't seem to find Sox 21 of 22 streak...............:D

I don't count the Sox out before the first pitch like some here have done to the Rockies.  I hope it a good series, after all, it took me a long time to secure tix to game 4!:p  

I DO think Sox fans need to take a hard look at their team, they aren't what they used to be.

I don't have a dog in the fight... I just hope it is an interesting series, would love to see it go all 7 games just so there is actually something on TV during the week.  Saturday's of course belong to college football.

Its only painful if you don't love baseball!  The Sox out played the other team that showed up in place of the Rockies, to be sure.  Funny moment of the game for this rockies fan: In the top of 1st inning I say to my son "what kind of effect a lead off homer could have"..........how could I have known!!!!!!:O :rofl :O :rofl   Brilliant offense by Boston, 6 more to go though!   BoSox!

No, I meant 6 more in the series,  Its a best of seven series, minus last nights game=6 games left if it goes that far.

Bud (Selig) must be glad Indians got bounced out. Imagine a Rockies/Indians WS, about 4 people outside Denver or Cleveland would watch it.

Any way Red Sox will win in 5/6 because they will get the early momentum because Rockies had a bye week. (I know thats football, o watermelon I gotta check my fantasy team.)

sir, Said like a true fan.

It will be an interesting series.  I live in CO, and routed for the Rockies in NL all the way to the series, being a New England native and life long RedSox fan, now I root for the RedSox.  Either way I am very proud of the Rockies for doing as well as they have to get here.  

The only thing I can say bad about the Rockies is that their management sure was stupid only selling tickets online.... no better way to screw the hometown fans and let some tool from NJ or OH sell tickets back to them @ 30 X face value...   :rolleyes:

, Bodhi!  Thank you sir!  I think of the game as I saw it when I was a kid and played, and how my young boys play and see it now.  They don't see the millions in contracts, or the steroid use, or the grown men acting like....well.....little boys.  Its pure, and it is good (at least to my boys).  I saw a 13-1 game the other night, and I was truly impressed by it.  I saw a 2-1 game the next night and was equally impressed.  I also saw a team go 21-22, a very young team, that made me think "Baseball is back".
