If I only could.

When and what channel?

Yep

Go Stros !!

Thanks! Be nice to see the Astos win and then win a World Series!

Yankee fan here, but it’s only a game played by a bunch of over paid athletes. I’ll check the paper in th morn to see who won.

Agreed!

I'll bet the headline will not be that they were kneeling during the natl. anthem.

^^^This^^^

And it seems most of the baseball teams nowadays have at least 4 or 5 foreign nationals on their teams that are proud to stand for the NA.

Yep. Sorry I missed Verlander force a game 7. Most of us here are for the Astros.

that was a good game last night

yankees batters 3 up 3 down, astros base hit then bunt runner on second two outs.

Go Stro's !

My buddy always gets mad when I ask whether he would rather I call them "Chokestos" or "Asschokes". It's hard to get too enthusiastic about them anymore.

I'm I'm pulling for them because my Rangers are out of it.

Go Astros beat them Damn Yankees

Worst plate umpiring on call strikes/balls I've ever seen in a series.

The Umps have really sucked this season!

Whats the score now ?

1 zip, Stros

Cool ! I'm trying to watch two College football games at once

Yes watching. Two teams playing good baseball. Aaron Judge is starting out like a young Joe DiMagio and the Astros' George Springer is close to breaking upon the scene as a super star.

Who in hell buys FS1? Are they going to be the sole source for the World Series as well?

I watched game two and figured all the games would be on Network TV.

Thanks OO for the pbp i can review and enjoy.

Thats awesome go Astros

LA

Ok, [bleep] LA.,

Ok, fark, LA.,

I'll be rooting against Houston no matter whom they are playing until they go back to their original name.

I'll be hoping there is a way that both the Astros and the Dodgers can lose.

I imagine you will be in for quite a wait to root for them, then...


Besides, the liberals would never let a team be called the...





When I was 8 years old , I went with my family to a game at the Astrodome, and caught a foul ball. They were the Astros then. Good enough.

It seems, I recall the Colt Patent Firearms Company putting the kibosh on the original name?

Not sure...

Colt 45 Malt Liquor is still around.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colt_45_(malt_liquor)

That stuff is very popular among certain ethnic regions...

I had never heard they were called that before. I wish they still were.
The liberals would be freaking out over that.
Found this story about the name
http://www.chron.com/sports/article/When-the-Colt-45s-became-the-Astros-and-the-10647526.php
The Colt Firearms Company was getting a little weird about it too. The gun marker reportedly had reservations about merchandising rights and was likely to start asking about a cut of the revenue, and team president Roy Hofheinz wasn't into sharing.

Go Astros

They became Astros when they moved in ASTROdome.
