Mark Sanchez appreciation thread

The Squeeze: A Sunday at the ballpark 


Our boy Sanchez takes the Oline to the Rockies game. He continues to touch all the bases. I'm impressed.

He took them to a Rockies game? God Sanchez what did the Offensive Line ever do to you.

 

[randymon]

He trying and doing all he can be a good teammate and build on the chemistry it seem. Got to like his ambition at least. Smart.

There is a reason the Rockies games keep filling the stands even though the talent has been lacking for years. It is a great stadium with a great atmosphere. Seems like most go for everything but the baseball.

That would make it a Cubs game.

Haha how true it is. That is the nice thing about baseball is for the most part it is a nice relaxing atmosphere at most stadiums. Lots to do beyond just baseball. I haven't been to a Rockies game in a while. Last game I went to they called for some rain so the guy sitting next to me who was about 6'5" tall pull out an umbrella blocking the 5-7 rows behind us from seeing the game. When asked to put it away especially when it wasn't raining he went on a cussing tirade and a huge fight almost broke out. Figured that was plenty of baseball for me for a while.

I love baseball - even though I'm a White Sox fan all my life.

Tough night with an asshole fan in front of you.

Man, that's awesome to hear - as a Bronco fan and as a USC fan. I'm starting to believe.... I know he is not the Broncos' end game, but I'm getting a good feeling about his attitude and approach to this opportunity. Gary Kubiak....

I agree he makes me feel fine were we are now . strangely I am not worried

Went to a lot of Dodger games. Loved going to that park. Prob was, always got in a lot of trouble afterwards though. Maybe it was the company I kept too. Never a dull moment though. Great Dodger era. Garvey,Cey,Fernando, etc. Good times.

You forgot Steve Sux - actually he was Steve Sax until the White Sox signed him and he couldn't throw the ball straight from 2nd to 1st.

Oh I could name alot more but didn`t figure we had to many LA fans on here. Yeah, I liked Sax for his clutch hitting but he really freaked me out with those throws.Did the same thing in LA. Funny. Forgot about that. Good job

I also saw quite a few games at Chavez Ravine - during the 70s with the Dodgers squaring up against the Big Red Machine.

I found the baseball crowds pretty friendly, but saw some hellacious fights at the KIng's games.

I'm really sorry that happened to you, CD. I've probably been to 50 Rockies games over the years and never had a bad experience like that.

I apologize for SpringStein's actions.

Been to one Dodgers game in LA...

Great park, old school but one of my favorite places to watch a game. Also watch a game in San Diego on that same trip. Nice park, but the Dodgers historic park unlike Wrigley field wasn't a dump. Something about the location and view.

I've been to nearly half of the baseball stadiums in my life. I remember when I was a kid going to Kansas City to a Royals game was a great stadium and now that place seems very average to what I see now. Was at the Cardinals and Reds old and new stadiums and they've both upgraded a lot. Wrigley is a dump. They need to quit with the history and rebuild. Not like the history there is good anyway.

This is the last year for Vin Scully - the greatest game caller of all time.

I have been to lots of Rockies games and that was my only bad experience. I love Coors field just haven't had a chance to get back in a while.

As I recollect the Rockies submitted a plan to MLB to make the outfield fence like a mountain ridge line - high points and low points -possibly to some scale a like the real mountains. MLB said no, but I think it would be so cool.

I had never heard that. Interesting.

They put up 8 foot screens this year from centerfield all the way to where the scoreboard is in the right field corner. They also added it in a short section in left - just not in front of the fans. So far this year it has prevented three HRs. All by the Rockies. All by Trevor Story. If it were last year he would have 11 HRs instead of 8.

Times infinity. Great Guy. Met him on stairs once at game and was so shocked and surprised I yelled to my buddy.." holy shirt! That's Skin Vully ! Serious. Embarrassing yet got smile from Vin.

Don't really care if Sanchez takes the Oline to games, takes the WRs to SoCal, seen it for 6 years in NYJ. He's a genuine dude but in crunch time he's a turnover machine.

Has he fixed his on field problems? I need to see production on the field .
