    Yup. If Jimy was our manager, we'd still be batting. :)

    Well, I guess we don't get to see the benefits of the managerial change in the 1st inning cause it looked alot like the same team out there. :(

    :D

    Bring Back Rudy and Jimy! Yea....yea....hehe..heh... . :p

    Edit: After that pop bunt play we botched, isn't "The Garner Identity/Supremacy" supposed to go into motion by throwing a Gatorade jug or something? Heh. Oh crap....3 runs score. BAH! GOD I CAN'T TAKE THIS TEAM'S CRAPPY PLAY!

    I'm not sure I've ever seen Biggio play a ball that bad.

    We need the "eye of the tiger". I propose to have Rocky I - IV playing at all times in the locker room. That will get them going. LOL.

    Have them play it before, during, after at bats. Play it in the dugout. Pipe it in wirelessly thru their helmets (they do have wirelss at MMP now).

    Play it so damn much that everybody is thinking only about getting that damn song out of their head.

    Then... maybe then... they can get back to playing winning baseball.

    Maybe their brains are getting in the way. (Tin Cup)

    There's nothing worse than listening to him broadcast baseball for a losing team.

    At least when they were rocking teams at home the past couple of years, after basketball season, he was somewhat tolerable. This year... because of this team's poor play... he's become intolerable.

    Here's that great piece of analysis you look for in your baseball color man:

    "Here's another big problem for the Astros... when they hit the ball hard, its always at somebody."

    I'm sorry... but that's far worse than anything Calvin ever said for him... shouldn't he know better?
