Bizarre Rockies Scoreboard Message Speaks to Jilted Lovers Everywhere

They were so real for this.

With the Rockies sporting a 37-59 record and sitting 18 1/2 games behind the first-place Dodgersin the NL West, Colorado fans have the right to act a little strange.

However, a message displayed on the Coors Field scoreboard Wednesday hinted at an entirely new level of wacky brewing in the Centennial State.

"Whoever runs the scoreboard at Coors Field is NOT OKAY," DNVR writer Suzie Hunter tweeted during the Rockies’ 4-1 loss to the Astros.

Under a conventional “Game Notes” heading, the scoreboard displayed the following message: “Using a stethoscope to listen to the heart, cardiologists can detect narrow valves, valve leakage, and/or abnormal rhythm. Don’t bother asking him to check YOUR heart though, Becky. That crushed Titanic sub has more life inside of it than that collapsed troll cave you call a chest cavity.”

Fans reacted with intrigue, pondering whether the message was a joke or genuine venting from a jilted lover.

Some joked that the story might be the most interesting one in a crowded Colorado sports landscape.

Many viewed the message as infinitely superior to in-game marriage proposals.

All in all, baseball fans everywhere expressed general concern for the scoreboard operator's well-being.
