  1. Been going to the dome with pops since before I can even remember being there. Stood in line for hours to get Nolan Ryan to sign his autobiography throwing heat only to have them cut the line off like 4 people ahead of us. My old man then looks at Nolan and says "Hey man you're his hero" and so Nolan waves me over asks me my name and signs my book. I was always rocking my Astros gear on the beach in St Thomas during the 100+ loss years. I never expected the 7 straight ALCS run but damn if 2023 (putrid roster management) and 2019 (WTAF) don't sting it would have been sweet to have been sitting there alongside the Yankees dynasty from 1996-2003 (4 WS wins, 6 ALCS wins) instead we are going to be looked upon as 2nd fiddle despite the historic consistency.
  2. No that's just a regular 3 putt sunshine pump special ;-) Circle of 'tuve life kinda like as a human you get born unable to walk, talk, or control your bowels and if you get old enough the same becomes true as well.
  3. Did someone say meat pimp? https://www.cc.com/video/jzq2u1/the-daily-show-with-jon-stewart-headlines-meat-pimp I doubt unlike that old stooge he would need a security detail to deal with that inaccurate riff raff.
  4. All I care about is that we are more successful than all the "new" SEC teams (Oklahoma, Missouri, Texas A&M, Arkansas, and to a much lesser extent South Carolina) Now I also would like to be more successful than the traditional SEC powers (Alabama, Georgia, LSU, ...) but we haven't exactly set the Big 12 on fire with 4 football conference championships so I'm OK with baby steps first which is just beat the other n00bs to the prize and do so consistently.
  5. He was also in the VIP tent at the Heart of Texas music festival at Altstadt Brewery with Ginobli & Manziel on Saturday /csb
  6. Jay Koehler was my statistics prof at UT and one of my favorite teachers. He was on OJ's defense team... Didn't realize he made it into law and teaches at Northwestern now. Good for him https://www.law.northwestern.edu/faculty/profiles/JonathanKoehler/
  7. 7.2 IP 14 ER 16.40 ERA What is the WAR on that?
  8. Also remember Boomer Sooner = Squatter Cheater
  9. I mean what sucks is ou and ou is what sucks but them putting a basketball stadium in Moore isn't going to fuck them up. Those Gaylords pretty much only care about football Ohio State style and I don't see them building a football stadium off campus.
  10. I was ok with him till the pantywaist horns down bullshit. You are a motherfucking clown from that point forward nothing you can do will wash off that cowardly stench.
  11. Even the pedos have figured out this team sucks
  12. Yeah I was definitely in the not enthused camp but glad Dusty was out.. Sadly Espada seems to have taken the worst tendencies from both Hinch & Dusty... Obviously he is dealt a short hand with all the injuries so the jury is out but for fucks sake I'm ready for Abreu to die in a fire... I had hoped after he turned it around during the end of last year he would keep that pace up but somehow he's managed to get even worse than early 2023 Abreu.
  13. Well thats a lie. Y'all knew we weren't getting Dusty back. I didn't believe it just like I didn't believe we weren't going to resign Mashitty.
  14. We wanted Not Dusty more than wanted Espada
  15. Fuck it time to load up the motorcycle trailer it ain't worth getting into Houston late over this dumpster conflagration #fuck
  16. Add in Pena in 9th until he proves he can hit again and we are in agreement Yeah I had to go look at his stats #oof
  17. He seems to have gotten Hinch's captain hook tendencies with regards to pitching and thank fucking god Maldonado is on the south side because he seems to have gotten lineup/pinch hit tendencies from Dusty. Basically the worst of both worlds #doomed
  18. GDI and not the Global Defense Initiative from Command & Conquer
  19. Oh shit I forgot he is suspended because of the ALCS stupidity
  20. Personally I'd have left Framberlamps in to face Volpe and then pulled him if he didn't get him out then I would have probably sent Abreu out to stop the bleeding and likely pitch the 6th since we don't have great BP depth. From there I would pick one of Martinez/Mushinski to pitch the 7th with Pressly & Hader to close it out (ideally)
  21. Yeah man he's not a high leverage arm then of course we follow it up with putting in gas can Montero who promptly fucks up. So far day 1 gripes with Espada.... Lineup great except: Pena needs to hit 9th until he proves he can hit again Holy fuck he sucks at pitching management thus far
