Why did the D'backs winning streak end?

[Stallion]

"The postgame...included a visit from new Denver Broncos quarterback Jake Plummer."

Sorry, I couldn't resist.

The rest of the story.

It ended because of Matt Freaking Matei.

He opened his hole, and the streak ended.
The friggin nerve of this guy.

The dude just can't seem to quit tainting AZ sports.

The streak ended because of one person: Skkorp.

Oh well, time for a new streak.

Jake is not responsible for everything that goes wrong in Arizona.

Double 1 could be right...

To be honest with you, I was worried that if we extended the streak to 13 games, we'd lose the 14th, and be forever cursed by holding a record that included the number 13.

Here's a buddy of mine's interpretation, pretty funny...

I blame Coors field. I hate that place. It’s such a (bleep) joke. I mean, 347’ and 350’ in the power alleys, and 424’ at center. There’s so much extra outfield there, they should let you play with 4 outfielders. And their stupid effort to compensate for the altitude by extending the fences was still not enough to prevent countless home runs from getting out. The need to move the fences out even more than they have, but doing that would make the outfield even more ridiculous. Home runs might come down, but batting averages would increase 100 points in a place like that. Coors field just needs to be destroyed. And it’s not like a dome would help or anything, unless they could somehow pressurize the inside to control the barometric pressure. I can just see that, some (bleep) up place with a series of air-locks to get in. And then they hand everyone an oxygen tank or some **** when they go through the gates just so that they can breathe. No one would be allowed to enter or exit the building when the game was in play because it would depressurize the building. At least they would have a normal playing field.

you obviously haven't been paying attention to the Jake is the Anti-Christ thread


Personally, I blame Skkorp. He jumped on the DBack Believers bandwagon yesterday afternoon.

They kind of have that old school Charlies Angels thing going on the outside of BOB. Strange.
