Actually, I'd be surprised if they rooted for the Cardinals. That was back when they were just the other team in Texas, and not division rivals.

You don't know hardcore Astros fans well enough then

I'm a hardcore Astros fan who pulled for both the Giants & Redbirds, not out of any hatred for the Rangers (although I admit to a dislike to the loudmouth Pow Pow "life long" FPTR fans that infested the GB in 2010-11) but because I then and still even now generally pull for the NL . It didn't hurt that both clubs had likable former 'Stros, Hunter Pence (Giants) & Lance Berkman (Cardinals), on them. Of course the effin' Dodgers and to a lesser extent the Reds (hatreds developed as a young fan ttend to die hard), I will not pull for under any circumstances although if facing the Yankees I might wish for a Game 7 that goes into perpetual extra innings. I also hope the Brewers never win the Series as long as they remain in the NL, eff you Bud Selig! I still even pull for the NL in the All-Star Game which was kinda tough this year with so many Astros being named to AL squad.

I bet you Astros fans did draw a line somewhere in Rangers vs Cardinals back then

Here's hoping we close this out tonight, as I do NOT want this series to go to a Game 7.

If the Yankees do end the Astros' season, whether in 6 or 7, I give props for winning your division (we screwed the pooch on that) and appreciation for spanking the Red Sox.

Let's go Astros!

Let me guess yankee fans in this thread never been to NYC and bought a yankee hat at lids two years ago.

You are not good at this .

You are the only one. It's too bad Lee didn't make it to NYC to make this question moot.

WHIZ on NY

Nope, not a single freaking one

Damn. With such low expectations for this season, it sucks to have just barely missed out on winning the division, and one win away from going to the World Series. It was a helluva ride and I guess if we had to lose, I'd rather see Houston go after what the city has dealt with, than Boston or Cleveland.

Nice season Yank. We'll kick your ass next year too.

Bingo. I hate the Yankees but as a rangers fan I cannot root for Houston.

---

I feel that way about the Cowboys but I've never felt like that about the Rangers. I've been an Astros fan since I was about four years old so going on almost 50 years now, but I will root for the Rangers if they are not playing the Astros. The cowboys? Heck no.

No, you don't know hardcore Astros fans. I never root for Cards, Mets, Braves, Cubs, or Dodgers. Rangers rivalry is still forced, but at least the Astros made it somewhat interesting this year.

---

I don't think beating a team by 23 games is interesting at all.

I meant the Astros finally winning some games against the Rangers and taking the Silver Boot. It made the rivalry interesting.
