    Anyone else going? This is gonna be exciting... Oswalt pitching, a great batting lineup, Biggio in center. :eek:

    I think the Astros will win the division this year, but the playoffs will be tough...

    I will be watching the proceeding from the comforts of my home. I have been to MM Park before and it is lovely.

    We will crush them today. Oswalt will be filty - Bags will start the year hot (for a change) - Berky will represent as usual - Kent will be clutch and Doggy will be .....well doggy.

    Go Astros!!!

    Even if Dalgy falters, we have Jason Lane!

    I hope Lugo stays healthy and bats from the 2-hole. He can really cause havoc with his speed.

    I hope to see a bunch of power tonight...

    How are you going to watch on DirecTV? It's not on there tonight from what I could find. I didn't even see it on MLB League Pass. Maybe that's just my area as their showing the damn Mavs game on channel 643 where they usually show Astros home games? I'm in the D/FW area...by the way. Maybe it just wasn't in the direcTV guid yet but I doubt it?!?!?!

    I am so pissed right now. I really want to see this opener. If MLB league pass has it on tonight and were just late listing it, then I may have to purchase it.

    I think I may get the game tomorrow but then the third game of the series says no TV at all for anyone.

    Stupid TV. Stupid Mavs. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.

    I can't even enjoy a home opener for my beloved Astros. Argh!!!

    I'm so stoked about this season. I think it may be our year. Of course, I think tend to think that every year. But this year is for real, I can feel it!!!

    The Astros are NOT on MLB League Pass tonight. Their first league pass game is Friday vs. St. Louis, then not again til next week. 11 of their April games are on league pass.

    Surfguy, I'm listening on the MLB Gameday Audio...only $11.95 for the entire year.

    Go to www.astrosdaily.com , they have a radio link I believe.

    Damn Kent with an error.
