Ranking the Rockies: An ode to No. 28 Drew Stubbs, the Rockies' wind turbine

Lizzie McGuire once said, "never let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game." Drew Stubbs took that to heart in 2015.

Whenever I drive across the country, I always make note of specific places where the wind turbines rise up from the horizon and cover the landscape with weird, long shadows. In a matter of seconds you go from a highway traversing nothing -- I love miles and miles of open road -- to a bizarre maze running through massive, slow-turning wind farms that reach the sky and seem to keep going for miles without ceasing.
