Covering their ass now after the big P.R. hit..... little too late in my eyes. It's a damn shame the rangers heads are so far up their ass they couldn't just switch the series.

What PR hit?
So after all is said and done, the Astros traded playing 3 games as the home team in Arlington for playing 3 games as the home team in Tampa, all while giving up tons of $ that could have gone to benefit the people of their own city (and the rest of the gulf coast)? All while screaming "it's about the victims!" Well played.

The same Mets that are 17 games below .500 with nothing substantial to play for? Still, it's a nice gesture.
I would say it is the right gesture.

Sure, but its a lot easier when you're not in contention for a playoff spot.

What exactly is 3 baseball games going to do for the city of Houston? If you think playing baseball games there is going to make the city whole again, then I don't know what to tell you

I'm sure people on this thread can explain to us how "not so simple" is was for the Mets to agree to an unscheduled day off Fri and double header on Sat so the Astros' players can connect with their family and community?
Classless fks.
I thought your GM said it was about inconvenience to season ticket holders? Did I miss something?GrapevineAg said:

Seems like the million plus dollars donated will help with relief efforts, whereas swapping series would've done nothing to help with relief efforts.
You're right, let's just cancel the remainder of the season and award the Astros the World Series trophy because of Harvey. Anything short of that would just be cruel.
IMO it really wasn't so much that the rangers didn't swap series. It was Daniels saying he didn't want to inconvenience season ticket holders.
In the meantime. The Astros brass got butthurt and decided to go to Tampa bay. To hell with the revenue that could have helped their city.

They've been moving goalposts this entire thread... why stop now?
When you get **** on by fellow Texans, the normal reaction is to get pissed and "butt hurt", correct? Or do y'all get to make all the rules when others are down? You really can't see it, can you?I drove bus said:

Nice start Dallas
If the effort put into goaltending your ****ty ballclub went in to rebuilding after the flood the city would have been fixed by now. Give it a rest and go back to crying about 4th place.
I agree that what Daniels said was stupid. It's also stupid for the Astros to continue to whine about where 3 baseball games are played when the Texas gulf coast is reeling from 9 trillion gallons of water. Both teams could be guilty of putting baseball first.titanmaster_race said:

I love that, "hey, the people who've been shellacked by a class 4 Hurricane are being just as unreasonable as we are"
The astros got off to a great start this season but the astros are what they have been since the middle of the season, a mediocre ballclub. One and done .

What did the Rangers do to **** on fellow Texans.
And what natural disaster are the Rangers dealing with? Did I miss something? Moral relativism sucks.GrapevineAg said:I agree that what Daniels said was stupid.

Nice troll coming from a team that might as well get .500 tattooed on their forearms. Aren't fore arms tats cool for yal
The Rangers are donating a ton of money to benefit hurricane victims, a much more meaningful gesture than moving a few baseball games, and y'all are still *****ing.
