Stupid Clouds UPDATED

You're going down Cloud. Going down.

All I asked for is for sunshine between 645-715pm on Wednesday. I wanted to shoot lefty Dane Pomeranian in the bitchin' mix of light and shadow of Security Service Field as the sun goes down. The Clouds screwed me on Friday and those worthless bastards are screwing me again today. That's it! it's on Cloud! PengoSports is calling you out!

Whatcha Gonna Do When PengoSports Runs Wild on You!?

"Well, well. If it isn't the whole sky, filled with Clouds. Here we are at Security Service Field, and it’s the biggest evening of your existence. Why? Because everything you stand for is on the line. Mainly, the control of the skies and whether PengoSports scatters you to the four corners of the Earth. Oh yeah, you see you can muddy the heavens, ruin my shots. Tonight? All you have to do is go through PengoSports, but you see, PengoSports doesn’t forget. We remember all the times you made people grovel for clear skies. These were people far less fortunate than you, people who could use the sun, the stars, for good of humankind, and what did you do? You made fun of them. You humbled them and you humiliated them. Well, now it’s my turn. I’m going to make you beg, Cloud. You are going to get down on your Cloud hands and knees. This time, you’ll be the one that’s humbled. This time, you’ll be the one that’s humiliated, and this time, you will be the one that grovels for mercy."

Better tap out Cloud!

UPDATED - Game was rained out. It's a push. I get to shoot tomorrow in good light, but not the sun/shadow thing I wanted. Another day Cloud. Another day...

The Truth Behind Colorado's Curse

I received this disturbing comment yesterday:

"The truly beauty thing is that I was given free tickets to Friday's CC-North Dakota game..the one game all year that CC has lost. A pox on all my teams, direct from me, apparently! Kev"

Kev is one Kevin Waybright. Bass player, cowboy (howdy, howdy), general layabout and, it seems, Colorado's very own Bartman! A curse walks among us, a curse named Kevin Waybright!


Very few pictures exist of this foul abomination. He is like the Sasquatch. He lives in the woods, smells quite foul and seems to enjoy beef jerky and practical jokes. The above shot is of Mr. Waybright playing at the Navajo Hogan. Yes, the Navajo Hogan that went out of business soon after this picture was snapped! Coincidence? I'd say NOT! CURSED!!! I'D SAY!

The Hogan closes. CC loses. The Av's suck. The Rockies trade Holliday. The Broncos suck (well, they usually suck, but Kevin has been a fan for a long, long time). His curse is alive and destroying Colorado sports!

The curse primarily effects Colorado sports teams but has befouled other events,

LIKE THE HINDENBURG!!!

AND THIS FIRE!

Break out the pitchforks and torches and let's bring down this monster who haunts our sporting hopes and dreams!

There he is! Get him!

Don't Screw With Curses.

They should have known. If any team should have known, it was the Cubs. They should have known and still decided to screwed with fate. And fate kicked their asses.

The fine fans of Colorado sports teams may not have that rich history and long relationship with choking, but we have embraced the fates of sucking quite well thank you. We know not to start screwing with a curse before you have driven that wooden stake deep into its heart, douched it with holy water and shoved a garlic and silver bullet pizza down its yob.

Cub fans are not that smart. They were celebrating a World Series title in September. It is now early October and they are now rallying around the mantra of "the Curse ends in 2108! - 200 years is quite enough." To remove this curse the Cubs brought in a Greek Orthodox priest to bless the dugout (and not a Catholic priest to exorcise the stadium), big mistake. They also denied entrance to another goat, the reason for the curse in the first place!

Colorado fans know our teams will suck. That is just the way it is. If they don't suck today that just means that they are saving the suck for later, when the hurt will sting a little bit more. We want them to win, but always believe they will lose (to not piss off the curse gods), and if they happen to not lose, Broncos 97 & 98; Avs 96 & 03; Dynamite; Crush; Mammoth; Rockies 2007 N.L. pennant...then, fiddle de dee, we rock! But we will suck again soon, gods-o-de-curse, so forgive us our cheering and understand that we know that you are most powerful and shall exact your revenge on us fans for the championships that slurked by you, the Broncos without Elway; all other Rockies' teams; all Avs teams without Roy; CU, AFA, CSU & CC hockey - screw you DU! Curse whore!

When you're cursed, you're cursed, so you might as well just accept it and root for teams that you hate to pass the curse onto them (hello Boston teams!).
