Paige: Curse of Monfort ruining Colorado Rockies

We should feel sorry for Dick Monfort.

He is afflicted with Dunning-Kruger Effect and Kendrick-Stubbs Syndrome.

In 1999, David Dunning and Justin Kruger, of the Cornell University department of psychology, produced an extensive research study that concluded "unskilled individuals suffer from illusory superiority, mistakenly assessing their ability to be much higher than is accurate."

In 2015, pitcher Kyle Kendrick has a 1-4 record with an 8.73 ERA, and outfielder Drew Stubbs has struck out 17 times in 28 regular-season at-bats (after earning 25 K's in 50 spring training plate appearances). Kendrick and Stubbs, a pair of Rox-bottom feeders, will receive a combined $11.
