My Ubaldo Jimenez Bobble head broke for the 2nd ‘n last time so I moved him, now Tulo bobble head #2 broke his hand and index finger so he gets moved and just to be on the safe side so Todd, Cargo, Tulo #1 and my Jack ‘n Jeff bobble heads don’t break they got moved as well.

Here’s where I moved them to:

I wanted to post this on my Rockies Memorabilia mlblog “Rockpile of Memories” but I cannot log into it & have contacted MLBlogs support about the matter, I’m waiting for a reply, if there’s nothing they can do about it then I’ll have to move the blog to Blogspot.

in the meantime here is the video I took using my new digital camera –you heard it, digital camera– albeit the video ain’t long like it would be with a video camera (which I have but I don’t have a USB connector plug for it & IDK if it’ll record with just the memory chip not video tape)– it’s in 2 parts & I know I missed out on some of the collection I’ll try it again another time.

Part 1

Part 2

a special message from me to you all!

The Rockies season of 2010 came to a close as the boys gets swept by the Dodgers at home, eliminated from any playoff chances they had in winning the Division or Wild Card. There’s always next year (like they say) let’s hope it’s better.

Last night’s game against them Dogs of LA (aka the Dodgers) was the last game for #11, the Rockies released him after the game. Dunno what to say about it, I’m shocked/sadden/brokenhearted right now, I never got his autograph on my 10yr bat or ’07 yearbook and I’ve been trying to get it since but he never stops at the player’s parking lot and during bp when he’s done warming up I’m in my seat in the Right field Lower Reserved section. Just sucks but that’s ~~Baseball~~ Business for ya. *sighs* I still need Matt Holliday, Kaz Matsui, Jeremy ~~Aflack~~ Affeldt & Rodrigo Lopez’s autograph on my ’07 yearbook.

Thanks for the Memories Brad!

Purple Sox vs Red Sox, WS ’07 Rematch. I’M IN!

Rockpile View — Sun, 23 May 2010 10:09:15 +0000

I got my ticket for Wed June 23 against them Red Sox last home stand and I’m psyched! I’m going to that game not only for the 1st of 2 player jersey t-shirts but also to see the Red Sox play in person, I only got to see 15 mins of both game 3 & 4 of the World Series back in ’07 and that wasn’t enough LOL.

I was surprised to get tickets for the Red Sox series because I figured they’d be sold out before I knew it, but the ticket teller said “They’re almost sold out. Rockpile has been sold out for quite a while.” I got my ticket for Sec L306, Row 3, Seat 10 Lower Rightfield Reserved; which is funny because I bought 2 tickets (for me only) for 2 games in July (the 7th vs Cardinals & the 10 vs Padres) & they are in the same section only in Row 4, seat 5. Funny huh?

Anywhoo I’m working almost every game in June, only took Mon the 7th, Tues the 8th & Wed the 23rd off. Same for July only taking the 7th & 10th off, I wanna get me that Coors Light Drink tumbler they’re giving out on the 7th of July and the 10th is the 2010 Team Poster AND FAN PHOTO DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! can’t miss that!

Twitter update/No GG love 4 Rockies

Rockpile View — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 07:48:21 +0000

I moved my twitter from rocktober2007 to RockpileView Yeah it matches my mlblog so if you were following me on my old twitter could you re-follow me on my new one?

No Golden Glove love 4 Rockies

srsly! what do these guys have to do to get some *censored* respect from MLB?! move the *censored* out of Colorado? (Heck NO!) Tulo, Todd, Stewie & Barmey had some GG-worthy defense (mostly Tulo) but neither gets an award; instead it’s them dudes from Philly named Howard & Rollins.

srsly!
