    Speaking as a fellow NL Central "rival", please do us all a favor and take care of business against these jokers. I can't stand the Cubs.

    Hope Pudge has a great home debut.

    About 90% of the games will be televised on TimeWarner in Austin. It's a big mismash of channels though. I think they wander between 3 or 4 different channels, so you kind of have to hunt for them each night.

    I hope we get the games up here in Nacogdoches. We get the Rockets on the FSN Dallas channel (doesn't say it in the guide or info, but they show it).

    Sucks, Lufkin just south of us gets FSN-H and we get the Dallas channel. :mad:

    Oh yeah

    It's RoyO, it's opening day! Big time W today, put Zambrano in his seat after his BS no-no in Milwaukee. Though I do expect Soriano to go yard...in my head, it seems like he murders the Crawford Boxes (don't know the stats)

    I may puke -- for an hour -- if freaking Zambrano goes yard *again*.

    I hope the 'Stros put double-digit hits on his ass.

    Our team would be great if we had some better Starting Pitching, outside of Roy. With that said, I'm excited for the game tonight. Wish I could watch it, but I have to freaking work from 3 to 11. :mad:

    actually,the pitching was better than the hitting last season. i'm hoping pudge helps that in the 2 hole.

    True statement.


    It's funny because I could actually see this team winning 90 games this year.

    I could also see them winning 65, too. :(
