Mo Problems Mo Money: What the Rockies and the NFL Share in Common

The biggest story in sports today is how a Monday Night Football game was botched by a replacement officiating crew.  This has spawned seemingly endless outrage directed at NFL commissioner Roger Goodell.  Now, I did not see the game.  Besides the fact that it wasn't on TV, I was listening to the Rockies game anyway.  But as I listen to today's sports-talk aftermath, I can't help but notice an interesting parallel between the NFL's situation and the Colorado Rockies.

It's Baseball Season!

Thank you football, I've never been more glad to turn my attention to baseball.

As Rogers Hornsby said, "People ask me what I do in winter when there's no baseball. I'll tell you what I do. I stare out the window and wait for spring."

Well Mr. Hornsby, from my vantage point the sun is shining bright and the snow is melting, even though it's still falling, but hey, that's Spring time in Colorado for you.
