I've been a rockies fan since i was about 5 and i dont remember them making the World Series ever! I was a huge fan of Larry Walker and Tod Helton but not so much now of Larry since he got traded but Tod is still up there, anyways im curious of how many of the groupies who follow the good teams actually think the rockies win? (Note: I HATE THOSE GROUPIES! :P)

i am not really a fan of eithr team, however, the rockies will probably win in 5-7 games...they have a ton of momentum...their defense is flawless, the back end of their bullpen is great, basically having 2 closers. their starters arent bad ad they have some big bats in the line-up. the bo sox will prob be eliminated, so taht means they will face th indians...the indians have a horrible closer, their 3-4 starters are only ok, and sabathia cant seem so far to handle the pressure of the playoffs, imagine how he will pitch in the WS and at mile high stadium. Also, the rockeis are getting to rest their players while the bo sox and indians have to keep playing in an emotionally draining series, so i feel they will come out somewhat flat.They indians also have some pop in their line-up but good pitching will always beat good hitting. everything except for home-field advantage is in the rockies favor, but like i said, sabathia has not proven anyhting even at home, so if the rockies can just get a split away, they may even be able to put clevland away at coors.

Sorry to tell you that there is a law of physics that what goes up must come down. The Rockies are talented and very hot nut they will loose Even though I am obviously for Cleveland they lost 2 games in post season so they will roar over the Rockies as they feel they are the under dogs and have the better focus and of course heart

Man, I don't its possible to find a team hotter than they are at this time of the year throughout baseball history. With that said, I believe more than a weeks layoff drastically affects their momentum. Check the Tigers last year. I hope the Rockies do it but first of all, the AL is much stronger than the NL, and once again, the long layoff will negatively affect the Rockies.

It would be an amazing story if they did win, but since Cleveland is on the verge of beating Boston, I don't see it happening. Yes, the Rockies have yet to lose a game in the playoffs, but Cleveland beat the Yankees and are about to beat the Red Sox, and that's a lot more.

I wish I could say no! I wanted the Red Sox to win so bad, but unfortunately I'm gonna have to say I think the Rockies are going to take it. Though I hate the Indians so better off.

I'm pulling for the Indians, but I unfortunately believe that the Rockies have SERIOUS momentum in their favor.
