    I'm going to listen to the 790 post game. Previous years I give all sports talk a break for a month.

    In all fairness the Astros have 1 and the rangers none for the nl, which is more valuable to me...

    Anyone can win the AL...

    Hate to see it end, but I wasn't even sure the Astros were going to make the playoffs after that awful run to end the season (up until the final week). No shame in losing the ACLS in 7 games, but it does suck that it happened with losing every game at home and getting blown out by the Rangers in the Games 6 and 7.

    First order of business is getting rid of Dusty. I appreciate that he took over this team amidst all the sign stealing crap and was able to help those guys weather the storm. I'm happy the Astros got him his elusive ring. With that said, I think everybody is ready to move on. Hopefully the front office can find a manager that is more open to analytics and we can maybe see this franchise move back towards what got them here in the first place. Here's to seeing Diaz as the everyday catcher next season as well.

    Also, they better spend this offseason figuring out what the hell happened at home and do whatever it takes to fix it.

    i dont see how some of you guys and gals can watch post game coverage after a loss. I still don't know what happened after the Rockets lost to the Warriors.

    8 games at home and we couldn’t win one of them if you count 2019

    go 2-6 at home and you had another ring and another trip to WS

    that one i didn't watch. stings too much. the number of times warriors beat the rockets took a toll to my mind.

    watching this one didn't hurt as much. the nationals and the braves one hurt a lot more than this one.

    They erected a 60 foot tall solid gold statue of Stephen Curry, and used it to knock down the Statue of Sam Houston on the I-45 outside of Huntsville.

    I would like to see both on a bus heading out of town. Slumps are one thing but "I have given up and don't care" body language has got to go.(Tucker) Pena is an offensive liability. He was an easy out all season.

    Some perspective to keep. Aside from their half season championship, they're like the 90's Sonics or 90's-mid 2000's Braves.

    I can't support a franchise that allowed assault of minor leaguers just bc they are from Texas. That's all and good night.
