Agreed... but we shouldn't be panicking over this... we got quite used to it in the 90's. 1995 Rockets vs. Suns game 7 1995 Rockets vs. Jazz game 5 1994 Rockets vs. Knicks game 7 1994 Rockets vs. Suns game 7 I don't count that game 5 against the Jazz, because Barkley had gotten hurt in game 4 (which led to 6 quarters of doom), and most people knew that the Jazz were just too good to take down without what many people said was the "heart and soul" of this team.
Damn I am nervous ... an hour to go and all I have been watching is all the negative stuff on Sportscenter, etc about how the Astros will not win because Roy Oswalt is going on only 3 days left. I hope Roy watched the tape of Beckett going on 3 days rest in last seasons playoffs LETS DO THIS!!!
Good morning. In less than an hour, fans from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest fanatic battle in this history of mankind. Mankind -- that word should have new meaning for all of us today. We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore. We will be united in our common interests. Perhaps its fate that today is the 11th of October; and you will once again be fighting for the life of our team, not by getting a new team, as was the case in 1960, when Judge Roy Hofheinz, promised National League officials the team would receive a Domed stadium. Not from oppression, or persecution -- but from playoff elimination We're fighting for our right to live, to exist. And should we win the day, the 11th of October will no longer be known as the birth of our Houston Astros, but as the day when the world declared in one voice: "We will not go quietly into the night. We will not vanish without a fight. We're going to live on. We're going to survive." Today, we celebrate our OUR NLDS VICTORY!
