    Thursdays game against the Padres, the Astros will wear their throwback Rainbow Jerseys.

    Fire up the old VCR and tape this.

    Can you say instant classic?

    The last time they wore these retro rainbow unis was in 2004... and they lost to the Rangers like 17-2.

    Bad karma....

    *arkoe considers asking Swoly how he came across that picture and what drew his attention to that guy's towel.

    *arkoe realizes that is likely a bad idea.

    i love how those jerseys were considered the most hideous things to ever come out of MLB in the 80's. and now, i can't walk into a pool hall w/o seeing 3 dudes sporting the same thing with Cruz on the back.

    Will be a memorable game for Houstonian Matt Albers.

    btw, anyone notice Bill Brown doesn't know how to tell time?

    --

    Brown: An afternoon start tomorrow at 11:30.

    Deshaies: It's 12:30 locally so that will make it 2:30 in Houston.

    Brown: Oh. It goes the other way.

    ---

    I remember a couple of years ago Deshaies said Khalil Greene looks like Spicoli and Brown was like who? Come on.
