Easy.

You're too busy turning your $300 into $3500 at the craps table. In order to do so you stay up till 7 am and only have time for a nap before waking up and leaving.

Oh yeah...And The Spearmint Rhino the night before that, but I digress.

Didn't even see the odds, but thought it would've been cool placing $100 on the Stros to win the whole thing.

So the Cubs, Mets, and Braves have been our rivals for a while?

Did they only make programs for those teams?

I imagine very little of this story is true. But that's the joy if the Internet; you can type totally made up stuff in hopes that random strangers will think you are cool.
BIG, GIANT thumbs up for you kiddo!!

Totally sold. Might as well start saving up for World Series tickets! It's honestly been awhile since I've been truly excited for an Astros baseball season.

Can't wait to see the first picture of our plethora of catchers just standing around wondering while they're all there and drawing straws on who gets to demand a trade first.

It's pretty common to have 3 catchers on the roster at once.. And gattis isn't even going to play it that often.

Kinda shocking there hasn't been more posted on here in the last few days..

Did Aaron Boone have an addendum in his short contract with us, that he would mention us if he ever became a broadcaster? Watching some spring training stuff today, he has said we are a lot better than before.

Apparently we were one of a few teams in talks with Francisco Liriano, until he ultimately resigned with the Pirates for 3 years and 39 million. A little overpriced if you ask me

I love everyone saying the Cubs will be the surprise team of the year and picking them to have a winning season. Might have to start a Cubs tears thread for this season.

I did too! Gotta love that Twitter presale code. I'm excited to see the new club level renovations.
