    I feel you bro, but for me '82, '87, '88, and '2000 all sucked a lot harder than this year. No real argument as to why.

    I honestly don't know what to think. After last year's comeback I' told myself to never doubt Garner but after goose eggs like last night its getting harder and harder to believe in this team. I would love to see Biggio, Clemens and Petite retire as Stros, especially Biggio, I don't want to see a repeat of what happened with Hakeem and Earl Cambell of Biggio spending a meaningless last season with some other team. Still it would be nice to see the Stros get back to winning and if the right deals are out there to bring in young talent I would be hard press to turn down a trade.

    I think 2000 was the worst because I had upgraded from partial season tickets to full season that year....so I watched waaaaay too many crap games.

    If I recall, Hidalgo was the only good part of that season. Maybe Elarton?
