Rockies top Padres in 22 innings

Sometime in my life, I Want to be at a game like this. The longest game I have ever been to is a measly 13 innings and the Twins won which was back when we only won like 25 games per year in the mid 90s. I think it would be fun to stay the whole gme.

What is cool about this game is it was 0-0 until the 14th inning.

I'm not a baseball fan so I probably just don't understand ... but 14 innings without a score seems like "I want to pull my hair out" boring.

It depends. If its 0-0 simply because both offenses suck, then yeah it would be. But if its a pitcher's duel, then it is very exciting. Most of the time 0-0 is kind of dull until about the 7th inning, then it becomes interesting to see how long it can last.
