    over 15K now.

    We changed our Astros song from before the season. The new second verse says:

    We stopped the tomahawk chop, shocked the world by coming back
    Scrap Iron silenced second guessers with aggression and moustache
    Bagwell, Biggio, and Berkman were as CLUTCH as CLUTCH can be
    And then we brought in the unthinkable a brand new killer B

    I can't believe, another killer B
    Is on this team. Carlos esta aqui
    It's destiny, e gotta keep Beltran
    The Houston Astros got it goin' on.

    It's at www.apolloxviii.com

    Hey Chance.... :D You got an idea for a 3rd verse? :p

    We crushed the Cardinals, fought our way back from 0 and 2.
    Against the Rocket, there wasn't much that La Russa could do.
    Lidge was Lights out, and closed out Larry, Albert, Scott and Jimmy.
    And it's off to Boston now for the first game of the World Series!

    I can't believe, How great his team has been.
    Now the trophy, Comes to Cluch City
    The World Series, We're headed to Boston.
    The Houston Astros got it goin' on.

    I was going through some of the names and I noticed John Kerry, George W and Dan Miceli three times.

    I wonder how many real signatures are on there.

    It's funny how fast the billboard idea fell off.

    I promise if you keep Beltran, I will go to more games. To help cover the costs.

    I remember seeing a 'Carlos Beltran Not For Sale' website on the news the other day.

    Could someone give me the link to that site? Thanks in advance.

    I can't believe this charity/donation crap is for real.

    Don't get me wrong, I want to keep him in Houston as much as the next guy, but it's just pathetic that we're stooping to passing the collection plate for a multimillionaire athlete.
