    04 and 05 were heartbreaking but looking bad, it’s still a lot of great memories. This has been even better

    He has to do that as a hedge against his mattress promotions. It's been good for business if he keeps doing these offers where he has to make a Vegas bet. He's done it for other sporting events too but his Astros bets make the biggest headlines.

    He used to have a type of insurance on these offers but insurance companies won't take these anymore.

    It's a win-win or lose-lose. He loses to Vegas, but he won't have to give a ton of mattress refunds or whatever his promotion is. Also, Astros +$400 to win it all! You couldn't have gotten these odds in a while.

    He absolutely is a scapegoat. As he should be. Then again Correa is on a milk carton too.

    If you folks don’t think the Astros can win three games against this team, then you got another thing coming.

    Go Astros!

    They made a rule about controlling whether a stadium roof is opened or closed in the postseason. They should make a rule that if teams can’t properly practice on fields prior to games because of weather (in the postseason), then those games are delayed/postponed until they can...
