1.5 games out baby! Unbelievable! Way to go Stros! Yes I am a fair weather Astros fan. I cheer them when they are playing well but pretty much ignore them when they are bad.
Major League I and II are my favorite sports movies of all time, so I know exactly what you're talking about. However, those Indians weren't having all the injuries the Astros have had throughout the course of the season. I love the Astros, but it's hard for me to believe they'll do much if they actually managed to win the Wild Card. They'll be without Pettite and Miller. Don't hate me for saying this, but as Randy Quaid's character said in MLII, "They'll blow it in the playoffs, they will!" Hey, least I still believe they can make the playoffs.
