    We may have lost, but that was a really fun game to watch.

    I guess it's only just that the Cubs own us this year after all the fun we had at their expense last year.

    This was a game that we should have won.

    Everett choked, Lidge choked, and the team hitting choked.

    At least we are still one up....with 2 to play....

    Got to win tomorrow...they are throwing that scrub Jerome Williams, but he looked like Cy Young against our bats last week.

    I still ahve no idea why people thought we would walk all over the Cubs.

    They are great competition for us. They all ways show up....and damn. This one hurt.

    I was more worried about this series than the Cardinals one.

    I think I heard the other day that when all 3 pitch, the Stros rarely win the series.....how strange is that?

    As disappointing as this game was, it sums up the 2005 Astros....good pitching but terrible offensive club. I take solace in knowing this team battled back from 15-30 and made things interesting. And at least the Cubs won't be going to the playoffs! ;)

    especially since we've got the rotation set up beautifully for the playoffs.

    NOT THE NUMBERS!!! THE NUMBERS ARE CURSED!!!

    Great. Now the Astros will win the Series, but a giant meteor will hit Houston and wipe out everything but cockroaches and Mattress Mac.

    I dunno, tonight kinda seemed the opposite. Granted we didn't put a lot of runs on the board but... we got the clutch hit but blew the save..that's kinda anti-Astro. Aww crap oh well, two more games...they got freakin do it the hard way :mad: :)
