It may wind up being a bigger hit than the Rockies ' play in the World Series.Musicians Jenn Cleary of Boulder and Mark "Mad Dog" Friedman of Lafayette wrote a song for the team's appearance in the Fall Classic. You could buy the compact disc for $5 outside Coors Field tonight, or online at WeDontSuck.com — a Web address Friedman said they chose because for so long, people said the Rockies were horrible. The song, aptly titled "2007 Rockies Song," was meant to be fun and funny, they said. With Cleary on guitar and Friedman on the harmonica, it includes lyrics about several players and manager Clint Hurdle, who is a big music fan. Among them "Clint, you are a bubble gum man, Keepin' cool with an intuitive game plan."For shortstop Troy Tulowitzki, they sing "obvious Rookie of the Year, you know how to persevere."And for Kazuo Matsui, who is trailed almost constantly by Japanese media: "He's got the stamina to be followed around by a camera."Cleary and Friedman said they are big Rockies fans, even if Cleary was born and raised in Boston . They like the fact that most of the players came through the Rockies ' farm system, not acquired for huge, multimillion-dollar contracts."This team is a real baseball team," Friedman said. "Not a bought baseball team."
