  1. A number 3 starter on a bad team? Would that be an upgrade over what we've gotten from France, Blanco, Bielak, etc? Even if it would be an improvement, the trade market has become tougher since the playoffs expanded. Someone else would probably offer more.
  2. Singleton smoking minor league pitching is great. Singleton blowing up in the majors would be epic. That would really get the crowd fired up.
  3. Who's going to trade a decent starting pitcher for Meyers? To get a starter better than the rookies we've been trotting out there, it would take Meyers plus others....and Meyers wouldn't be the main asset we would lose.
  4. Hate sex is the only kind Rosie has ever known.
  5. A game they had to keep faking injuries in order to compete with us, and had to go for it on fourth and long in order to stay ahead of us.
  6. Or he shows up to A&M and that experience confirms his decision to attend The University of Texas.
  7. Have they fired the fucktard(s) responsible for hiring Skip Bayless and Stephen A Smith?
  8. Fortunately, by the time he got to the stands the parking lot had cleared.
  9. And why the fuck is Brown talking to media about trade plans? Just say something generic like, "We are always looking for opportunities to improve our team."
  10. We were in the NL West from 1969-1993. 25 years. We were in the NL Central from 1994-2012. 19 years. Granted we had a long tradition with St Louis via the Houston Buffs, but how many still living ever saw the Gashouse Gang play? It seems after the 30's few of their top players went through Houston. Stan Musial, Enos Slaughter, Red Schoendienst, Marty Marion, Curt Flood, Bob Gibson never played for the Buffs. Kevin Boyer spent one season in Houston.
  11. This is a very complicated case.
  12. And kindly fuck any whippersnapper who thinks the Cardinals are a bigger rival to the Astros than the Dodgers or the Reds. Fuck Steve Garvey, Fuck Pete Rose, and Fuck Tommy Lasorda! However, thanks to Fuckin Bud Selig, we are no longer in the National League. Not the West (Fuck the Dodgers and Reds!), not the Central (Fuck the Cards in general, but especially Fuck Tony Larussa and Fuck Albert Pujols!). We are in the Motherfuckin American League. Fuck Bud Selig! Fuck the Yankees! Fuck the Red Sox! And.......Fuck the Rangers! The last two times we didn't win the AL West, it was because of the Rangers. If we go 10-9 instead of 6-13 against the Rangers in 2015 we win the division instead of being the wildcard. If we go 10-9 instead of 4-15 in 2016 we win the division instead of missing the playoffs. Fuck the Rangers!
  13. Since all the assistant coaching spots are filled, I think Matson is going to fill the Special Assistant to the Head Coach role that Steve McClain had last year before being named an assistant coach.
  14. Thought this post should be in this thread:
  15. One of the most ridiculous "Corps traditions" is that they wear their pretend military uniforms at graduation, even if they aren't going into the military. I went to a family member's graduation that was also the commissioning ceremony for those graduates receiving their military commissions. They were dressed in the uniform of whatever branch of the military they were entering. They received their degree from atm, and then their commission as an officer in whatever branch they were entering. All branches of the military were represented. That part of the ceremony was impressive and patriotic, and I felt grateful for all those deciding to serve their country. But I was dumbfounded to see all these corps turds wearing their pretend army costumes instead of a cap and gown, but not having the balls or the patriotism to serve their country. My opinion of corps turds was already pretty low, but it certainly went down after that ceremony.
  16. We can make fun of aggy for tweeting about it and making themselves a target for the NCAA, but our leadership feels the same way.
  17. Maybe we can work something out with Austin Community College.
  18. Texas and Alabama know how to give a talented kid with issues a chance to mature. They also know how to get rid of a kid if the issues outweigh production on the field.
  19. It makes perfect sense for Manning to build up a relationship with a possible receiver. Livingstone requested Vacek and Taafe because he is considering a transfer to Westlake.
  20. Hinch not stopping the cheating caused inestimable damage. Fuck Hinch.
  21. He will be 83 in September.
