Although a large part of me died when the Brewers collapsed, allowing the dreaded Cubs into the playoffs, I have been keeping an eye on the World Series. I am rooting for the Rockies because the team voted to give a full playoff share to Mike Coolbaugh's widow. It's a classy move worthy of full support. Plus, the Red Sox won the World Series just three years ago.
But after Game 2, it is increasingly clear that the Rockies are overmatched. Between Colorado's long rest and the potent Boston lineup, the Red Sox are the clearly superior team this year. Right now, I am just hoping the Rockies can extend the series to five or six games.
In honor of the Sawx, here is "Tessie" from Dropkick Murphys.
