    A little hopeful, probably, but beating the Cardinals just gets my spirits up.

    So many letdowns
    beat down division rival
    hope this is the year.

    and

    Bags and Biggio
    loyal servants of the club
    get their rings at last

    astros always choke
    ever since I was a child
    they have always choked

    just a waste of fime
    why do they even have fans?
    don't deserve new field

    they'll choke this year, too
    like they always have, and will
    you can count on it

    Yes, but it is kinda funny since that is all the Astros have done.:(

    Really? By what standard? The Rockets haven't done a damned thing since 1996 (conference finals). Do they "deserve" a new arena?

    What about the Texans? They certainly don't "deserve" Reliant Stadium. We should have put them in the Dome and made them "earn" their new stadium.

    As can be seen above, your point taken to its logical conclusion, is silly.

    Just bad fans despair
    anything happens in the fall
    Astros could still win.

    can the 'stros do it?
    is it possible to win
    without a black man


    I am no racist

    Cubs have good pitching
    Cardinals have good hitting
    Both are still losers

    Bagwell hits the ball
    It goes over the damn fence
    Astros win again

    Xiki hates Jimy
    Jimy's Astros are winners
    what does xiki know :)


    dada the skeptic
    Astros will win the central
    dada will eat crow :)

    time to write haikus
    Never really liked haikus
    Still, this thread is fun

    I don't hate the 'stros
    I like to go to their games
    M.M. park is nice

    They just always falter
    I'd love to be proven wrong
    But each year, I'm not

    Too bad astros choke
    always wanted the pennant
    Can't get my hopes up

    Astros lose again
    History repeats itself
    Now they're tied with Cubs

    I can only laugh.
    Anyone know the Heimlich?
    This team is choking!

    Comes as no surprise
    See my previous Haikus
    Each year, it's the same

    We interrupt this stream of Haikus to bring you an important baseball analogy....

    Confucius say: Astros fan is like battered housewife who returns to abusive husband time after time. Fans say, "This time things are different. Things are changed." They return only to have their hopes shot down again and again. And when you ask them why they return time after time, they respond, "Because I love them." It is sad.

    We now return you to your original thread of amusing Asian poetry

    Sad? Bah! Makes winning all that much better. Give me the Red Sox over the Yankees any day.

    Maybe I just have Battered Spouse Syndrome, though. But there's more poetry in losing, damnit!

    What? Beating people?
    It is a different thing
    Losing not funny

    A Friend of mine was at Vegas over the weekend and he told me that the Astros are favored to win the World Series. He couldn't believe it and when he told me last night I couldn't believe it either!! We both busted out laughing! He talked to a few people there (pitt bosses, bookies, etc..) and sure enough they believe the Astros will take it all this year. They must not know the Astros to well or either they know something we don't. I guess every team that makes it to the playoffs has a chance but the Astros just need to get passed the Braves.
