    I'm a fan of the Astros, but I admit for the past 2 months my interest has been rock bottom, but now I am watching the Astros leading the Reds 4 to 1 (hopefully to win...) Berkman is blowing up, Bagwell is getting hot!

    The all-star break is over and I feel a "fresh" attitude to the ball team....So do it Astros! Beat the Reds! Beat the Cardinals! Drink Sprite and just win! Baby.

    Same here. Last year, I watched the stros almost as much as the
    Rox. This year, after losing, I stopped. I watched today's game
    and was shocked at how Lugo was playing D. I was like "When
    did this happend?" I feel like a laker fan that only watches when they win. :(

    I think Hun will make a move to jumpstart the team. After Cincy got Dempster, I think it's almost necessary now. He said we were in the Weaver sweepstakes, but it happened too fast for us to make a move. I really wish we could've gotten Dempster.

    Anyone think Burnett will be traded?

    I've been watching all year. I remember Major and I thinking it was all over when we heard the score to the June 19th Milwuakee game 200 times on our drive to Omaha and thinking that it was all over...I believe we were 10.5 out at that point. Never stopped watching or listening though.

    Playoffs, here we come!!!

    I stuck with the team throughout the season and watched every game. I'm very happy that they've been giving me something to watch that's entertaining.

    Im right there with you on that one. Its good to finally have something to cheer for. I was miserable for most of the season. It looks like things are turning around.

    I cheered for them all of this season, but I had no idea they were doing horrible. However if I could go back I'd cheer even louder!

    but definitely more excited when they play well than when they play poorly!

    I listen to them on the radio every time they play. I've known they had it in them, but I didn't think things would click this well.

    Go 'Stros
