    First the Rockets piss me off tonight and now the Astros are doing the same. They've blown a 6-2 lead in the 9th!!

    Giles is trash and will always be trash. Seriously, **** him and **** anyone that likes him.

    I agree mostly. Hinch is the most to blame for this.

    What a shitty night. I could never own a sports franchise because I would fire Hinch right after the game.

    Jesus christ.... When it rains, it pours when you're a Houston sports fan. Giles should have been pulled the second he gave up the first run.

    You let the best pitcher in the ****ing league try to work out of jam. it's not that complicated. By the way, nick agreeing with you isn't a good thing.

    Dallas pitched a great game all the way to the 9th only to have Giles cough up 4 runs. Great management Hinch.:mad:

    at least hinch kept our clear best reliever on the bench for that entire 7 hit, 4 run blown lead. now he can pitch him 4 innings instead of a portion of an inning

    funny, i was thinking--i could never be a professional athlete. If I was getting jobs by the refs with so much on the line, I'd have fouled the **** out of someone towards the end of the game and probably get kicked out.

    Never like my starter going for the complete game unless it is a perfect game or no hitter. Im not even mad at dallas or giles. Giles had it, slipped by marwin. Weird ish, thats baseball.

    Giles isn't anything special... but putting the blame on him when you bring him into a bases loaded game with no one out and Trout and Pujols up? No... this is squarely on the shoulders of the manager.
