    yankees are NOT a better team than the astros.

    only thing holding them back is little brother syndrome.

    Don't know why y'all put yourself through this. Yankees have continuously pitched the Astros Out of the strike zone all series and the Astros still swing at it. Until the approach changes you will see the same stuff over and over again.

    Window can close any year. Opening day your best player can tear their knee up or your best pitcher can throw out their arm...

    Wish this team realizes this is their year and they are letting it slip past them with this timidness.

    The home advantage in games 3-5 has been HUGE for the Yankees. Seem intimidated by the crowd.

    If we keep it at 2 runs, we can come back. I will say that I felt YESTERDAY was the key to the series...I posted as much. We snatched defeat from the jaws of victory yesterday.

    Won't allow myself to be too emotionally invested in this team any further at this point. Just can't trust a team full of mental midgets. This is their second playoff appearance but sometimes you either have it this time of year or you don't. When the Astros reached the world series back in 2005, they had a leader in Berkman who consistently performed this time of year. The core four as the playoffs have gone on look shook.

    They need to get fired up on the dugout. Break something.

    He's right. The Astros are lying down for them. Clear path. We are mentally beaten and they are just stepping over us now. This really is pathetic.
