You shouldn't feel sorry for the Colorado Rockies.
They're too young for that, too new to the MLB landscape. Oh, sure, it's been 23 years since they became a franchise. But that's peanuts on the geologic timescale by which clubs like the suddenly liberated Chicago Cubs and still-suffering Cleveland Indians measure their triumph and heartbreak.
No one—aside from the guy with the threadbare Dante Bichette jersey—cares that the Rockies have been to the playoffs only three times, have never won a World Series and haven't had a winning season since 2010.
