Fuck yeah can’t wait! I know 3 games in and I’m gonna hear the same stupid question from my wife....”are the astros playing again tonight? How many games do they play?”

Yes, it’s 162 and you can go away now.

Sorry - no can do. While it’s fun to rub their noses in it, the baseball gods would not look kindly upon a break from last year’s thread title.

Shitty thing is now utgrad can name change and post here.

Thank you for that--that was the biggest offender with the other created thread.  You do not fuck with karma in baseball.

They are sold out currently.

In it to win it ... again.  Let’s go ‘Stros!

[Felix 607]

 Last year the stress of anticipation was palpable. This year I can just enjoy the ride. 

[Maker Bayfield 300]

GO STROS!!!

[HornGrandioso 22]

"Earn It" last year and "Never Settle" this year.

We've come a long way from 2012's "We Are Your Houston Astros," which only guaranteed that, contrary to appearances, the team hadn't been secretly replaced by an amateur senior league baseball team from Pakistan the year before.

Remember THE WORST PLAY EVER? (Video won't embed but do you really need to see it again?)

Anywho, those dark years just make the wine that much sweeter.

Who is pitching tonight?  I haven't been able to find it on the internets.  My FIL is a Brewers' fan and we bet on the game.  If I lose I have to make him a brisket and if I win I have to make him a brisket.

Betting on spring training....that's dedication to gambling

[kevwun 15809]

It was his idea.  I am pretty sure he just wants me to make a brisket.

I have a bunch of their shirts. They aren’t full shmedium but have a fairly tight fit. Usually wear L but ordered XL for the first couple now I order L. Wear a 42L suit I’m about 5’11 180 if that helps.

Just wait until October...it'll be just as stressful as last year!
