“You trying to say Jesus Christ can't hit a curveball?”

If you needed a reason to be even more sarcastic about the Rockies, check out the article “Rockies Place Their Faith in God, and One Another” that’s in today’s New York Times.

The highlight of the piece is when the Rockies try to show that they’re still “hip” and “with it” and “totally not soft” --

"“To be sure, this is not a bunch of teetotalers, as demonstrated by the Champagne- and beer-soaked celebrations that followed their series-clinching victories. They do not censor the clubhouse stereo, either. Everything from hip-hop to alternative music, like the Amy Winehouse song “Rehab,” played on a loop Saturday morning. “This is still a baseball clubhouse,” (pitcher Matt) Herges said.”

Nothing says “baseball clubhouse” like a Meth-mouthed, drug-addled rat-faced Brit singer-songwriter. I bet Boston is gonna be bumping the Lilly Allen. Oooh, things are gonna get naaaaasty.

So the World Series has officially been framed as the Eddie Harris’s vs. the Pedro Ceranos’s. Jobu is gonna be on point this week.
