    The Astros are making me look forward to the Rocket's training camp, and that is sad, because I not that excited about the moves the Rockets have made so far. I think I am just goin to skip over the Texans, because all they did was upgrade their coaches. I predict that the second play of the season David Carr will be sacked. Then they will play a highlight from the NO game showing Bush running back a kick for a TD. I need a nap. Houston sports is best seen through the eyes of an unconscious fan.

    Yeah, the Texans did absolutely nothing else to their roster. Well, besides adding their first legitimate pass-catching TE. Nothing else. Wait, except their first legitimate 2nd WR. That's it, though. Hold on, I forgot about the form pro-bowl C they added. But you're right. Except for a pass rushing DE, a couple LBs and another good run stopper on the line.

    But outside of that, you're right.

    Do you really have 28,000 posts? And, you ruined my moment of depression.

    I didn't realize it, but Max is somehow only a couple hundred behind RM95. Seems like yesterday the highest anybody had was 3000.

    Is that what we're seeing Thursday night?!?! :D

    It's no D&D. I'd be at 35k if Clutch would ever let me back in. And if he's right on how I would act, he'd be rid of me, and apparently Mad Max, too. :p

    Every once in a while Dish network just won't show an Astros game.. :mad: I live an hour and a half from Houston so I'm sure the game will be blacked out in my area ? Will it be blcked out on MLB.TV ? I remember someon posting a way to get around that..I'll pay to see it on my computer just want to be sure it will work... :)

    If the Astros had drafted Carl Crawford he would just be making his way to Corpus this season.

    Yeah, forget moving players along at a pace that has resulted in one non-competitive team in the last 10 seasons! Let's be the D-Rays!

    Everyone has to do something tonight to get this team's mojo going again. I recommend listening to the "Good Guys" song that Chance's band released after Game 4 against the Braves in the NLDS. Also, feel free to put on your good luck shirt/jersey that you religiously wore during every game of last year's postseason run. Sit in the same seat you sat in for Game 6 against the Cards (not the Game 5 seat... bad karma). Drink a beer or take a shot everytime we fail to score a runner from third with less than 2 outs and/or Ausmus/Wilson grounds into a DP.

    Happy viewing... let's get this party started!!
