What's insane is the way schools are funded by the state. HISD is just doing what's in its best interests financially.
I understand the average daily attendance thing, but that's making a huge assumption about skips. And it's still a huge FU to tons of parents and students at the last minute. They're closing all offices too, so the admins can **** off on a three day weekend. Poor decision that sends a terrible message.

If it makes anyone feel any better, apparently this is a fairly regular thing in cities that win World Series or Superbowl. Was laughing about this with a coworker from Pittsburgh who said schools and work places would basically shut down for parade day.

I think it's pretty silly myself and was thinking "act like you've been there before" when I heard the announcement, but it's not like we're the only ones.

I wonder what the logic is for doing the parade tomorrow instead of Saturday.

Another thought is that it's varsity football day, yet schools and district offices will be closed for the day. Weird.

I can't understand why more people aren't getting excited for this. Houston won the World Series. Here is some footage from last year in Chicago. MILLIONS of people celebrating, as they should be. This is a big deal--enjoy it.

The correct answer is that it's always ok to hate Roger Clemens.

Don't think our parade will be anything like Chicago's. They've got a little more history and bigger/more loyal fan base.

I'm not making it to parade tomorrow. One, because I need to start my move, and two because I don't want to deal with the crowd.

Odd random fact: They were born on the same day. May 27, 1968.

I will be at work tomorrow, but will try to catch a live stream of the parade.

Urgent questions being asked of George Springer at the press conference right now. You guessed it, they want to know if he'll go to the White House and what about Yuli's gesture.

And now I see Clemens tweets this out:

Heading downtown to cover the #AstrosParade with @abc13houston ! Fans, I will be giving out these signed photos. Hurry by before we run out!

And, yep: it's a pic of himself in Astros uniform.

Yet he was wearing no astros gear when sitting behind the place during the ALCS.

I know we hate him but I think he's been good on the Ktrk broadcast today. I like hearing about how he was a fan as a kid and how much of an impression Cruz and other guys made on him when they came out to his ghetto Spring Woods high school to work out and talk.

And he is wearing Astros gear today.

Really?

I suppose you didn't like Biggio/Bagwell on the float or that Backe was signing autographs at Game 5 (which was awesome for me personally because I attended his WS Start in 2005).

It is possible for someone who had immense success with two teams to root for both teams. It's ok that he went neutral for the ALCS.

Really: I haven't liked Clemens since he was at t.u.
