Sports radio in Colorado

It’s very hard to believe that Fall is here. It seems like the summer went rapidly. As a lot of you know, I like listening to sports on the radio. Today, I would like to give you my thoughts on this year’s baseball season with the Colorado Rockies and the coming season for the Colorado Avalanche. When the Rockies season started I was a little bit hesitant to be a Rockies fan, because in past years the Rockies did very poorly. Last year I was finished with the Rockies after May or June because the players and the pitchers weren’t trying hard to win. I was feeling very disappointed in my team, and with the Rockies in general. This year I think the team has grown as a team, and as an organization. They have won more games this year. They still lost some pretty big games, but the team has gotten better. One of my favorite pitchers is Johnathon Gray. He has set a record for strike outs at Cooers Field. Tyler Chatwood is a good pitcher as well, while Chad Beddis is doing well also. There were about 15 or 20 games that they maybe should have won, but I think this is a better put together team this year. I am hoping that Trevor Story will heal, and better than ever next year. This past weekend the Rockies played the Los Angeles Dodgers, and they did a tribute to Vince Scully. Vince Scully has been doing Dodger games since the 1960’s. Vince Scully will be retiring at the end of this year. One of my favorite parts of the baseball season is listening to Jack Corrigan and Jerry Schemmel calling the games. Since I can’t see, I rely on them to tell me what’s happening in the game. When the Rockies hit a homerun, I can hear the excitement in their voices. Whenever there is a good strike out by one of the pitchers I can hear the excitement in their voices. Jack Corrigan and Jerry Schemmel are what makes the game for me. I am very fortunate to live in Colorado and that Colorado has some wonderful sports announcers.Speaking of sports announcers, and different sports- the preseason for the Colorado Avalanche is starting. The Avalanche have a new coach this year named Jared Bednar. Jared Took over when Patrick Roy resigned a couple of months ago. I enjoy listening to the games on Altitude and he is very quick with telling about the plays that he is describing. Last night he was describing a defensive player, and he seemed really Sports Radio 950 on the A.m. dial. The Avalanche’s announcer is Mark Moser. Mark has been calling the Avalanche’s announcer since 2007 or 2008. He is an energetic announcer, impressed with the way the player stopped the puck from going into the net. I also enjoy it when Mark fills in on Altitude Sports Radio 950. He has good opinions on the sports that he talks about with the other hosts on the station.Colorado has some good sport’s announcers.Thanks for tuning in.Jeremy Levy
