    Leaving work in three hours, man I wish Saturday was a night game and Sunday a day game because Monday is gonna suck at work.

    Oh yeah Astros vs Rangers in Arlington = 50-50 or 60-40 Astro fans and we will make more noise kind of like the Braves and Cubs fans do at MMP. Going to these games reminds me of Rockets vs Mavs back in the early 90s when it was like 80% Rockets fans at I think Reunion Arena

    Been to a Braves or Cubs game at MMP recently? I don't see that anymore. Those days are gone. Hopefully, forever. But at the Dome, in particular, it was defintely annoying.

    I remember going to the very last game of the season in 1994 in Dallas. The Rockets blew out the Mavs. The Mavs committed roughly a billion turnovers. My roommate and I wore our Rocket gear...along with about half of the stadium. They couldn't give those tickets away back then.

    Do you think Biggio will get his milestone in this series?

    How the heck does Chris Sampson survive with only 32 K's in 82 innings and 21 walks?

    I'll take that bet. $5 to the tipjar.

    or a $5 bet that we lose a series to the rangers... either or will work :)

    You can almost pencil down the Rangers for a 15-2 type of victory in one game of the series. They do that to the Stros every season it seems.

    It's not an official game thread until you get a pessimistic post from Lil Francis.

    You do know this team is coming off a sweep, a well-fought series against the best team in the league and has set a franchise record for consecutive games with 10 + hits, right?

    Ok and your point? Im sayin that the Rangers have had atleast one lopsided victory over the Astros atleast one game in the past 4 seasons. Im an Astors fan too but just calling it like it is.
