I went to Denver's Coors Field Tuesday night with my friend Mark (seen in the photograph above) to see the Colorado Rockies play the Detroit Tigers. The Rockies actually played very well, and won the game 7 to 3, although the fact that the Tigers are one of the worst teams in baseball does need to be factored in. Mark, as usual, spent much of the evening filling me in on soccer trivia, despite the fact we were watching a baseball game. Perhaps it is time for him to be deprogrammed. I'll check to see if there is a soccer addiction support group available. Just a month to go in the baseball season, by the way, and the Rockies are holding on to a playoff spot by the skin of their teeth. The Chicago Cubs look to be in the playoffs again, too, although my home town south side heros, the Chicago White Sox, are once again mired in last place. But then again, there are few things that stay the same in the world these days, but lousy White Sox teams are one of them. It can be a comfort in these troubling times.
