2021 Houston Astros Thread

[Seasick Sailor 3747]

I just heard that Walt Weiss is a coach for the Braves. I'm now rooting for the Dodgers. Fuck him.

[HtownHorn 15243]

What is this extra DH game you guys keep talking about? Either Braves or Dodgers we are only playing 2 road games.

[texashorne 1185]

So which one of these guys is gonna get the broadcast blowjob from Joe Buck? I'm thinking Rosario.. 

[kevwun 16269]

All of them?

Smoltz would verbally fellatio the entire Braves pitching staff should they advance.

The only thing that could make winning that World Series sweeter is listening to John Smoltz have to talk about it in real time.

Yep, the extra dh game makes me want Atlanta.  Never though I would utter such blasphemy.

agreed…but having 3 of the first 5 at home would also work. extra game only matters if it goes 7. most series don’t. 

i don’t mind being the road team in  2-3-2. 

[Tommy Nobis 905]

We won our World Series without home field.
We lost to the Nats up 3-2 with home field. It don’t make a shit. Just find a way to win 4 more fucking games this year.

[Fudge Nuggets 19407]

Imagine if Atlanta survives and we see a game 7 pitcher's dual between Graveman and Jackson.

We lost to the Nats because we tightened up and failed to win either of our first 2 games at home. 

[Fudge Nuggets 19407]

Facing this Matzek cat late in the game down a couple of runs would not be ideal.  Let's not get in that situation.

I don't see the Braves scoring 14 to get that 2-run lead.

[Bender Bending Rodriguez 1708]

In 10 postseason games, the Astros are averaging almost 7 runs a game 

6, 9, 6, 10, 5, 5, 3, 9, 9, 5

The Braves don’t have Scherzer or Strasburg. This is our year. Again. 

[HoustonFrog 368]

Braves it is.

[TexArcher 38816]

ASTROS IN 5

[Js1 86924]

Atlanta it is. Don’t make a shit! 

[cabowabo 4645]

Fuck Atlanta. 

[Gourmand 7778]

SUCK IT DODGERS!!!!

[WBT 20879]

So it's the braves.

f Ted Turner, f TBS, f Jane Fonda, f Bobby Cox, f Maddux, f Smoltz, f Glavine, f Steve Avery, f Kevin Millwood, f Mark Wohlers, f Wild Thing, f John Rocker, f Andruw Jones, f Larry Jones, f Fred McGriff, f Javy Lopez, f Jeff Blauser, f Mark Lemke, and most of all f Walt Weiss for shutting down the dome.

[Telegraph_it 3376]

My 90s childhood is ready for this series. Too many games at the astrodome watching the Braves get the best of us. 

[billfromlaketravis 11783]

Dodgers will cry injuries, and everybody with a press pass will accept it 100%. 

Edited October 24, 2021 by billfromlaketravis

[UTexasFight 9787]

And they will 100% still be watching the WS from their couches

 

Let’s fuck up the Braves 

 

[Macklemore 2945]

We got the Braves!!!! Home field advantage. Fuck the front running Braves fans who’d pack the Dome to see them play against the Astros back in the 90’s. Fuck Walt Weiss, Chipper, Smoltz, Maddux, Bobby Cox, Crime Dog, etc, etc. Fuck the Braves. Win this for Biggio, Bagwell and Daryl Kile

Wonder where we could have been with a healthy Verlander, Greinke last part of the season and LMJ for the ALCS?  Man, what could have been.

Bags and Bidge need to stay away from the club this week.

Feel like Chris Burke throwing out a first pitch is a given.

[Briuis 61]

Chris Taylor single handedly kept the Dodgers in that series. I'm ecstatic that their Yankees style experiment blew up in their face. Only thing missing is the Dodger version of Jomboy coming up with conspiracy theories on how the Astros/Braves cheated. 

[Fudge Nuggets 19407]

Who wore it better, 2021 World Series Edition:

 

VS

[The Dog 44770]

Will they keep Jackson on the roster?

[tx 3 putt 78461]

 

back to this play, correa had no choice after they touched first, he can't just stand / stay on first ?

Chris Taylor, Seager, Kershaw, Jansen, Sherzer are all free agents.

Damn. Good one. I was at that game.

The best part is ATL is going to blow themselves over this but will soon realize they haven't won anything in sports since 25 years ago. I cant wait for them to collapse, honestly

Nah, the Confederates never really held St. Louis. For most of the war, they were building Union gunboats there, ironically enough, with slave labor. 

The Rebels didn't really have control of much of Missouri at all -- it was more like roving bands of guerillas wrecking shit. The war was very, very ugly there, and it started there, and in Kansas, years before Fort Sumter. And some historians contend it continued long after Appomattox -- Jesse James only robbed banks, trains, and people he thought to be Unionists during the war. I guess that is where some of his Robin Hood image comes from; though he certainly did not give much of his loot to the poor, he did claim to only rob people perceived to be aligned with powerful interests. 

As with the Unionist partisans, the war fast became far less ideological than one based on vengeance and personal hatred, as each side committed atrocities before and during the war. In the beginning, yes, it was fiercely tied to the question of slavery in the states of Kansas and Missouri, but by the end it had descended to a blood feud.
