Before we get into things, I'd like to take a quick moment to congratulate Houston on their 2023 AL West division championship.

Excerpt from the article: 

 

there’s been documented proof the Astros cheating never went into the playoffs or the WS. There’s literally a website dedicated to the entire thing. And we’re in 2023 and this is what you go to?

Lmao. You’re the worst shit talker on here. You have one thing you keep repeating and you’re embarrassing all rangers fans. But it’s what losers do. Yankees, Red Sox, mariners, twins, dodgers, Phillies, etc. must suck to watch 7 years of continued success t

You know baseball existed before 2017 right? 
 

Actually as an Astro fan you probably don’t.

Lmao. You’re just mad the Astros run they’re on is getting compared to the Yankees with jeter and a-roid. Even they’re saying we’re in the middle of one of the greatest runs in history. Sorry your team blows now bro.

Yeah no one is touching what the late 90s Yankees did. Nobody, especially not the Astros (and A-rod wasn’t on those Yankee teams you idiot). 1996-2001. 5 World Series appearances, 4 World Series championships. In the days of one wild card team. No cheating needed either. Astros aren’t even remotely fucking close to that kind of dynasty.

I'm sure we have picked up a few bandwagoners as any team thats on such a sustained run of excellence would, but tons of us are long suffering thru watching Biggio and Bagwell be so good during the regular season and completely vanish in the playoffs to the 100 year loss seasons as I personally have, and plenty even longer than that. 

Sorry the Yankees have been dogshit for so long, daddy Altuve will try to bring home another pennant for yall to see on opening day 2024.

It's a hate thread. We aren't holding hands in here.
Don't lump all Rangers fans in with Mavs fans. Christ.
I'm born and raised in San Antonio so it's Go Espurs Go all day, errday. Mavs and Rockets can eat equal amounts of donkey AIDS.
I had family in Richardson growing up and the Rangers teams and Nolan in my sports-loving teen years were just much more fun to watch growing up. More games on TV in San Antonio as well.

And that’s fair. I’m just tired of people whining about the cheating when they were literally all doing it. I don’t like hypocrites.

Meanwhile, quoting writers from Bleacher Report and something called the Belleville News-Democrat is "what you go to"?

I never claimed Rangers (and others) weren't cheating. Signs? Eh, maybe, probably, sure. 'Roids and PEDs? 100% the whole league was.

I kinda just love instigating. Name and avatar out front shoulda told y'all.

sooners, aggy, astros, yankees, red sox, dodgers, mavs, rockets, lakers, jazz, thunder. Whoever. Moreso if the team/fanbase is insufferable, lives in trailers, fornicates with farm animals and glass jars, chest thumps and claims superiority with little to no skins and so on.

I enjoy partaking in the witty banter and/or mocking the insufferable stupidity.

Most (definitely not all) of Astros fans here seem fine. They love their team or are legit baseball fans. Idiot Astros fans that continue to pop off in the Rangers' thread, most certainly excluded.

Now back to our regularly scheduled programming.

 You have one thing you keep repeating

The reason you keep seeing trash cans and Ted Cruz is because no one wants to waste 30 seconds of their lives looking up anything else about Houston. I would add "James Harden wants to live there" but even that's a little obscure.

No one as in Arlington? Lmao. The one franchise that’s never done jack shit yet thinks of themselves as the upper echelon of mlb royalty? Sound familiar? Aggy rangers.

Since when do Rangers fans think of themselves as upper echelon of mlb royalty?  You're as fucking regarded as your idiotic disclaimer.  Stop lunching at the scrip club with Harden.

Wait what? I've never once heard a single Rangers fan refer to Texas as an upper echelon in MLB. Ever. Texas fans know exactly what their franchise is.

That actually doesn't sound familiar because I have never heard of anything the Rangers or their fans have said that suggests they think of themselves as "the upper echelon of mlb royalty."  

This is like that time that Altuve announced that he was a huge OU Sooners fan and started wearing an OU fanny pack during games.  What a stupid piece of shit that guy is.

Lol. Calling Astros little brother? Is definitely raising yourselves above teams that have actually won. having two posters say it’s not so doesn’t make it so. I’ve heard multiple times and I’ve lived in Dallas since 1988.

You might want to sit this one out.....  Rangers fans are annoying because they are DFW sports fans and so it's in their DNA but they know deep down in their cockles they haven't won shit yet...

Anyone calling a Houston fan little brother is because 96% of the northward resentment from Houston, in terms of sports, stems from the fact that their football franchise(s) have never done shit.  Up until the Astros came to the AL, I rooted for both teams (until Houston bitchboi syndrome kicked in fullscale).  And up to that day, my reaction to Houston fans when talking about sports was...

Congrats Rangers fans on your team making the ALCS!  I mean that sincerely. 

 

Now I want you all to close your eyes, take a deep breath and exhale slowly as you remember that feeling y'all had on that last Leclerc strikeout. Now imagine that happening SEVEN STRAIGHT SEASONS OF MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL.

 

And then winning the pennant in four of those seasons, followed by two World Series titles.

 

And all of it was built on organizational greatness, player development, and a culture of kicking everyone's ass and not just bought with massive free agent signings of 30+ year old stars from other teams.

 

Y'all deserve your fun this week because you've had a great season, but you ain't shit compared to the Houston Astros. 

 

DYNASTY, MOTHERFUCKERS!!!!

 

Now kindly go fuck yourselves with Helo's Aaron Judge dildo.

Also, how many fucking uniform colors have the Astros been through?   

That's the sign of a shitty franchise -- having to change your colors to sell gear.  

And your shitty franchise couldn't cut the mustard in DC even though the Expos have proven it seems to work just fine when you have a modicum of competence which is pretty funny since the Expos were the models of lack of competence.

All of them better than the bland crap the Rangers have worn both as the Senators (yikes) and Rags. Pretty much the baseball version of the Texans unis...

we rangers fans don't have a championship to savor.  we know a thing or two about baseball and praying to the baseball gods who haven't shown us anything.  most of us don't care one way or the other about the astros.  astros come lately fans pretending to know about baseball though is entertaining.

My first glove was a JR Richard autograph model.  Yep. I just got here in 2017.

Arlington fan is always the first to cast aspersions on Astrofan longevity or loyalty.  Nothing outs someone as a bigger bitch-ass punk than playing that line, as if you’re the only fan base who suffered through shitty teams.

Full disclosure: my catcher’s mitt was a Jim Sundberg, so fuck off.   Some of us grew up actually liking both squads, but fucking Arlington inferiority complex/ douchebag factor is oppressive AF.

Calling the Rangers fans/team the "Arlington Rangers" is as aggy as calling the Loghorns the t-sips. Whoop!!

Geography nerd in me just trying to help everyone out as to where the Rangers actually play their games since Texas is a big ass place
