    Just wondering cause I like to go there from time to time, since it's a pretty good site regarding the Astros. (a far cry from CC.net, true...) But the guys who run the site have a pretty twisted sense of humor, and a lot of interesting stuff...

    Anyway, just curious...

    Yes, Darkhorse. I visit astrosconnection.com occasionly during the offseason and regularly during the season.

    They run a very good site, but there are some things that I think would improve it.

    I wish they would post links to Astros pertinent articles around the web, like Clutch does with the Rockets.

    I do enjoy reading the columns written by their Astros writers on that site. I have learned more from those guys in the year or so that I have been visiting the site, than I have from Peter Gammons since I have watched ESPN.

    I visit often,but can't stand their forum. It seems very un-organized to me, and a lot of arguing about petty things. Now the Astros Official site has an awesome forum, just like CC.net (well almost) [​IMG]

    I also visit Astrosconnection.com

    I agree with the other comments. It is a pretty good site. Nothing at all compared to this one.

    I also can't stand their forum. I do not like how you have to go into each individual post on one thread. That sucks.

    Thanks for the tip Bobfin* about the Astros forum.

    I like to go there because I like their sense of humor. Plus I love the Astros.

    Yeah... their forum is just horrible... Originally, what started this thread was me wondering if anyone here posts there...

    ... and then I opened up their forum... :\
