The Rockies sure have been a lot of fun to watch (since changing managers) this season!
ameriken
10-11-09, 07:30 PM
Yeah, they went from winning 1 out of 3 games at the beginning of the year before the change, to winning 2 out of 3 after the change. If they make it to the series, I just hope they dont blow up like they did in 07.

Bah humbug. Broncos shouldnt be trying to win on field goals. Too many missed opportunities. :evilgrin:

Denver helped a few teams this year. Heck, they helped KC win today.

ALL COLORADO MARINES!!!!!!
I finally got my sh!t together, the AVS are out of the playoffs, its coming on summer time and I am ready to organize something. I am thinking a weekend out at the lake with plenty of beer and a few grills that we can tell stories around.....
I am open to suggestions (dates, time, place). PM me; I know that we all like to keep a little ambiguity with our actions.

SEMPER FI.Let me start with this: my wife will be out of the country after the 4th of July until about the same time in August, so I have most weekends open.
If we're all over Denver, we can probably find something fairly central like Sloans Lake or someplace similar.
Not that anyone would be able to travel for a one day get together, but if you want you can probably open it up to other Marines from outside the state that may happen to be here during that time.

Roger that Ken, of course its open to any and all Marines.
That being said, lets wait a bit for more to reply to set details, but I like how open your schedule looks :cool: I am good in that time frame as well..... Also, we could maybe do something up at horsetooth, cherry creek or where ever we can get a campground for the night to set up some tents and have a fire if people so choose...... Just some thoughts; bunch of Marines, drinking, driving to and from a location = nothing good......

The all Colorado platoon was quite sometime before you enlisted. It was in 1959, Colorado's centennail. It was platoon 344, we were in the quonset huts just across from the confidence course, 2nd and 3rd battalons were it "nice" barrack next to the grinder. All but one guy, he was from Hawaii, were from Colorado. There were 5 of us, all went to high school together, all volunteers, none of us draftees, from Greeley. Myself and a close friend went to Denver to enlist. I still know his service number as well as mine. He was one man ahead of me in line, his service number one digit less than mine. In those days, before SSN's, you knew aproximately when a man enlisted when you knew his service number. Ours were in the 1859 range, we started seeing the 19 in about 62 or 3 as I recall. Our SDI was an Agy.Sgt. I'd hate for him to list him self as an Acting Gunnery Sgt. on this site, the newbies have a thing now "poser", I'd never heard that before, so they might think Acting was the same as "poser". I wonder if they were told about the acting ranks in the MC history classes in boot. Anyway, thanks, stay off the sky line, and take care of your beutiful state.

I hear ya, I still have optimism for the rockies, but my pessimism goes to the broncos. Too many times they've led us down the road to a SB and then blew it big time somewhere in the endgame.
The rocks are somewhat of a relatively young team, I havent reached that point of burnout yet and still have a thread of optimism left.
