    I was talking to a fellow Astros buddy and all he kept doing was pointing his finger at Jimmy for the recent losses. His arguement was that it was the coach that should be getting into the faces of these players and get them to go out and play better. I think it isnt Jimmys fault, its up to the players themselves. They are the ones who make the plays and hit the hits. After his Jimmy bashing, he also told me that it is way too early to start blaming anyone. WTF! I do think it is early in the season, but in my opinion EVERY game should count! Who is to blame? or should we fans just shut up because it is early in the season?

    P.S. I'm Pissed.

    If any manager got up in Bagwell or Biggio's face they'd get fired. The only people to blame this year sre the players themselves.

    This was the 1 year i didn't think ownership skimped us on getting good players.

    Once the Bagwell and Biggio era is over, Astro fans can finally have some true optimism.

    Yep, once we get rid of the two Hall of Famers, things will start looking up.

    They arent playing like Hall of Famers now, and when they did, the Astros still couldn't get past the 1st round, because these 2 Hall of Fame players forgot how to hit.

    Hall of Famers without ever winning a playoff series. They can pat themselves on the back for that accomplishment and for stealing paychecks from Drayton.
