Yeah, the Rockets have no responsibility of their own for getting their product on the air. It's entirely on the Astros. If the Rockets are truly that stupid, they deserve more crap for that than the Astros would for waiting for a deal that serves them best. Rangers fans are bandwagon. I'm super sorry to tell you that. That's a franchise that didn't draw 3 million fans the first year it won a pennant or even the year after they won their first pennant. Even my friends who are Ranger fans talk about it and say it's hilarious to them. No one gave a tinker's damn about that franchise at all for decades. They didn't show up to their own park...much less show up to someone else's.
Umm who the hell are u talking to like that? I can speak my mind anytime I want, and for the record I have season tickets with the Astros since 2001, so fail by you. It's obvious there are a ton of Ranger bandwagoners that go to the game. No way in hell there was more Rangers fans than Astros fans in 2004.
Was seriously not even a consideration before 2010. Not even close. Franchise was seriously amongst the worst in all of pro sports for roughly 40 years.
If Altuve is not healthy (as he's clearly not running well) , maybe somebody should be telling him not to try to stretch doubles into triples.
A.) Most Astros fans are Rockets fans as well... and everybody understands that the Rockets are very much united into holding out for the best deal on CSN. B.) Rangers fans are bandwagon fans.
No actually it was a fail by you for generalizing every Ranger fan a bandwagoner. I've loved them and kept up with them since 1991. I was 7 years old. You're right you can speak your mind anytime but it doesn't mean anything intelligent is going to come out. Another fail- having season tickets to the Astros. Seriously I hope you didnt have to pay for them because I doubt you could even give them away.
I can almost guarantee that half of the crowd in Houston are Ranger fans. It's pratically a home game for the Rangers.
Good... they can finally rectify the mistake of building an outdoor ballpark in that awful sweat-inducing prarie-land that they can't play day games in. The bandwagon fans can watch games in comfort for once.
Ha. I was a Ranger fan before it was cool. Ruben Sierra, Julio Franco, Pudge, Juan Gone, Rusty Greer, and yes NOLAN RYAN post Mets, Angels, Astros were my childhood heroes. Even when the Astros were winning they just didn't appeal to me. I rooted for the White Sox in the World Series cus I didn't want the Astros to get a championship before the Rangers.
I already know what's going to happen. Astros will get out to a 1 or 2 run lead then the bullpen will give up 5+ runs in the 7th 8th and 9th Rangers win 7-2
Astro fans... aren't you guys like 3rd to last in attendance? Why are you complaining about Ranger fans being bandwagons when most Houston fans don't even show up to Astros games? Heck, the Rockets were 18th in attendance and they were pretty good this past year.
