    I know you're joking- but seriously, no one can be upset with him about this- these things are planned months in advance, especially if it's taking place in Italy, and I guarantee you they planned this way before he was traded. I'm sure he'd love to be at the parade- but this comes first.

    No kidding. People can manipulate numbers what not until the cows come home to make their “mysterious discoveries” absolute truth.

    Conspiracy theorists will always think they have the inner scoop. Now don’t get me wrong here, I do believe Satan and his demons do a very good job at deceiving the world convincingly.

    Just know that God is good and God is alive. Satan is under God’s authority. The Truth is in the Word. Know that and you will always be in the light and never fooled (or lost) by these fabricated lies.

    It’s close if not equal. This is coming from a lifetime Rockets fan.

    Astros winning the World Series is in this fashion against top 3 powerhouses is very special.

    Hinch's postgame interview is so low energy even after winning the World Series. I feel like he is probably a fun guy when he's had a few..

    I'll remember Marwin's homer as the most important hit in this World Series.

    Started following the team in '85 when I was 6 years old and started playing little league and collecting baseball cards, met Jose Cruz at a Boy Scouts meeting, in '89 got to talk to Yogi Berra, mom got season tickets from '90-92 and we rarely missed games, skipped school when they introduced Orbit at a season ticket holder event and got on the news, went to game 4 to watch us lose the only home game of the series and couldn't be happier right now! My winnings from my preseason bet on the team to win it all paid for my entire trip to Houston.

    Great article from Jeff Passan. This quote really interested me, who could it have been? Edwin?

    So, my caption is:

    Altuve: "Dodgers the 2018 favorites? What the ****???"

    Fisher: "Best to stay off the internet. The other day, someone tweeted me '**** you for Scola.' What's a Scola?"

    McHugh: (thinking: "hmm....I wonder if the Dodgers need another arm?")

    Gonzalez: "My ringtone says 'Ca-Ching' and my liquor's wrapped in bling."

    "Altuve gets word he's being asked to appear on 'The Tonight Show w/ Jimmy Fallon' and he's exhibiting a fear like never before given he's shy. McCann (sorry...Fisher) is fixing to blow Gatorade chunks at the news, McHugh is exhibiting signs of smoke inhalation and jealousy, and Marwin wonders why nobody is calling while preparing to turn to alcoholism."


    Altuve did a good job on Fallon's show. I wished he would have danced. Funny how they ("The Roots") played Backstreet Boys when he came out and used his name in re-written lyrics.
