    Thank you for striking out "the MVP" Wheels. Just make it through the inning.

    Playoff jitters for Wheeler? Was he with the Stros last year? How quick I forget.

    More excuses and ass-kissing for the Braves being done right now by ESPN.

    Thank goodness we've got Thom Brenneman and Steve Lyons on Fox tommorow... with the amount of times they've covered us now, its almost like listening to the home announcers.

    So ATL's down by 6 and what do we hear from the announcers? How great their organization is for having been to the playoffs 14 times in a row.

    SHUT UP, ESPN!!

    Just got back from the Westchase BW3's...that place was nuts. Place was packed by gametime even with a 3:00 start. Astros fever has taken over this city, just like last year. Random people buying me Jager shots, which is always a good thing!

    Lets close this out and let Roger do his thing tomorrow. Go Stros!!! :D

    Im not arguing, but if I was a Braves fan, I would have been really annoyed with these annoouncers talking about how hot Pettitte is for about 3 straight innings.

    No joke :rolleyes: God forbid they ever give the Astros some credit or talk about how we have been in the playoffs year after year. How about the awesome series we had with the Cards last year? We arent slouches here.

    Exactly... wouldn't a much more RELEVANT topic be how the Houston franchise, after playing so awfully in the playoff against this Braves team... almost to the point that they were JINXED... has now broken thru in consecutive years with not only wins, but BLOWOUT wins in game 1.

    it's nice having 6 run leads. i'm playing mp3's and really not even paying attention as opposed to the usual ball of stress i am during these games.

    and now they get a triple. but it's all good b/c i figured out that song monster.com plays in their commercials (thanks to the greatest invention ever, Google).
