    Just look at it as watching history. We'll probably never see something like this in our lifetime.

    Man, they've had some ridiculously bad luck during this streak too. Not to say that it's all a product of that, though...

    But over 34,000 people bought a ticket to last night's game. Looking at the game on TV, it looked extremely crowded, and the crowd was loud. Was there a concert or an event scheduled with the game last night?

    Considering how rude everyone was trying to take our seats after the game and not letting us out, Mercy Me must be the Christian version of the Beatles. Ridiculous and poor planning by the Astros.

    Gawd, this is a lineup that should legitimately win 10% of it's games.

    Damn, LOL

    When we rebuild, we do it big.

    Don't mind sucking, but i don't like all of these retreads when there are quite a few worthwhile players in OKC to have a look at.

    At this point, Lucas Harrell may not be safe. :)

    I suspect Jeff is taking a page out of the Morey asset development book. Build a little value and sell them off.
