[Official] Astros @ Angels

Dang, I can't believe they locked the Terry Puhl thread. It was like a safe place for him to play, padded walls and everything. It was kind of fun watching.

 

My friend, bullies always win

 

For your non-alcoholic palate - Cafe Du Monde Beignets and your breakfast drink of choice.

 

Is a pity because the next manager was Scrap Iron, a manager that took us to the playoffs twice, first manager to win division series, and took us for the first time, well, only time to the World Series. He also has best percentage win record for a year .649 in 2004 after management fired Williams after a 44 and 44 record.

 

Cafe Beignet actually better than Cade Du Monde... but the latter is something to see if you've never been to either.

Stanley has a great brunch/bloody mary.

 

Another quiz question, last National league manager for the Astros is Tony Defranseco.

First American league manager, that one is easy, Bo Porter.

 

I'll have to try Cafe Beignet one next time we're there.

 

Do people really, really like chicory coffee and beignets or is it more of a "I'm in NO and I'm supposed to do this" kind of thing?

Discuss.

 

I love beignets. I have mine with low fat chocolate milk.

 

I actually don't care much for the beignets... hence why Cafe Beignet is a pretty damn good place (they have other things... like crawfish omelets). They also made the chocolate milk fresh... my kid loved it.

But if you have to try them... the quality there is slightly better than du monde.

 

I like crawfish in stuff, but I don't like the peel and eat crawfish. Too much work for too little reward.

 

my opinion exactly. Love crawfish etoufee and such

 

With the Toronto loss the Astros have jumped into the 2nd Wild Card spot.

 

Not quite. Percentage points behind KC and they are leading in the 8th inning.

 

no, they already won, interesting to see Kendry Morales playing RF tonight

 

Yup, You're right...well for a few minutes between the Toronto loss and the end of the KC game the Astros had that spot

 

astros a half game behind KC for the 2nd wc right now.

 

And 8 1/2 behind Texas

Maybe we can go 6 behind at all star?

 

Spoken like a true powdered-donut-eating yankee.

 

Just gotta know how to do it. A Cajun taught me and it is really a 1 step process.
