    Seems to be a trend that the Astros are picking up from the Rockets. Weird...:confused:

    Of course, the Astros haven't traded with any New York teams...

    Don't forget our postseason record against New York Teams. That may have something to do with it.

    Espeically in 1986 when the Mets beat the Astros.


    Unless you are talking about the time when we beat them in 1994, and our pettite lady's basketball team beat them in uh...

    when we beat them that one year.

    I notice Houston repeatedly screwing New York over, as in the 1994 NBA Finals.

    Take away the Astros accusations and I'm left feeling pretty disgusted with the goingons with NYC.

    Rockets killed Knicks 1x
    Oilers beat the Jets 1x
    Comets beat the Liberty 3x

    And I believe there are a few more to boot if you include the other Texas Teams

    1) Astros sign Andy Pettitte
    2) Rockets demolish the New York Knicks
    3) Astros sign Roger Clemens

    Man, we've really screwed NYC over lately. =)

    Didn't we get Dotel from the Mets for Roger Cedeno or something?

    And Viscaino (dunno if I spelled his name right.) who was clutch for that team as a Yankee. He had a game winning or game tieing homerun during one of the championship runs. The guy is just clutch.
