    i blame purpura. if only he had traded for a bat at the deadline last year, we might have turned it and made the playoffs.

    For some reason I thought this was a four game series.

    Either way, we're going to win.

    I blame everyone not happy with our current status. You're either with us or you're against us.

    It's all my fault. I forgot to wash my lucky underwear in time for a critical game and rather than just tough it out for the team, I put on a clean but uncharmed pair. The rest is history... :(

    I say Astacio beats another pitching giant (Patterson)!! Wandy's game bothers me a little bit, but there's no doubt in my mind that Pettitte bounces back from his last start!

    W L W... but I'll rather be wrong and see WWW!

    Is this a cheer for Washington, or a prediction of an Astros sweep?

    Livan is tough. Hopefully we can get a sweep but I doubt it.

    I won't use the letter since it's the letter on our opponent's caps, but....

    ASTROS SWEEP!!!

    That is all. Carry on.

    I wouldn't be surprised if we dropped these first 2, then went 9-2 or even 10-1 the rest of the homestand.

    If we can split these first 2 or win em....loots like at worst a 9-4 homestand.
