Thinking of taking my 6 year old on Sunday. Best section to sit in with a kid? Club level?


Is your child prepared to hear dirty words?


He wouldn't stop saying "butt cheeks" yesterday so we are getting there.
Tell him that's pretty cheeky and you can teach him what a double entendre is - a sophomoric one at that.

Looking forward to a fun sports weekend:
Astros hopefully separate themselves form the Rangers and Ms
Aggies make a statement win over Auburn and the Cowboys keep rolling against AZ even without Diggs.


Without hesitation I'd take trade an Astros sweep for the Ags getting smashed by Auburn. Ags seasons ceiling in SEC is .500 at best and I seriously doubt they can even do that.
In a heart beat.

I was asked recently what would I choose to happen, a World Series championship or a win over Alabama... obviously I said the WS 1 million times over... I was basically shunned from that conversation lol


I mean

Winning a championship or winning one measly game?

How is this even a question?


Now if the debate is another world series OR the ags win the national championship
Then you have a discussion
This.

For my part I would take a football national championship for A&M over everything. I don't have a degree from The University of Houston Astros.

National title for A&M in football > 3rd World Series


But 3rd World Series > any regular season football game except for the Texas game next year. I want that one bad

Astros are 8-10 in September and Yainer has started 9 of those games.

I feel the same way. I can't claim the same kind of connection with the Astros as I have with A&M.

4-5 in his starts.

Including his PH:

.342 BA
.375 OBP
.763 SLG
1.138 OPS

That's elite.

Maldy in Sept.

.216 BA
.293 OBP
.487 SLG
.779 OPS

That isn't bad at all.

It is safe to say catching production hasn't been our problem.

I don't disagree. There were some bad pitching performances in there.

A national title in football for A&M > any pro sports title.

I'm elated to have those 2 World Series titles, but really want to retire my old saying of "A&M hasn't done anything since Hitler was getting ready to conquer the world."

Now look at the stats for the entire season. Not just September between the two.

Catching production has absolutely been a problem this season.

I was talking about Sept. Obviously, its been a problem season long. That is why I have been banging the Diaz drum all season long.

I grew up watching the Astros before A&M was a thought in my mind. I'm glad I got my degree there but I've certainly gone on to do other things in my adult life, so I'm confused by the idea that college sports should sit stop the pedestal. (Personally.)

As far as discussion topics it was either this or clawing my eyes out at Dusty Baker being too dim to understand a "must win game."

As a spirt tag holder, I'll be the Astros WS > A&M title guy here.

I'd love for both to raise the trophy, but honestly, I'm more into the Astros than college football now (especially with NIL), and my kids are all about the Astros too. It's fun to see them excited about the playoff chase. I've created monsters.

Also, I don't think any of their friends are college football fans yet, but are all about little league.

How are we feeling about tonight? I'm anxious but feeling slightly optimistic...need to jump to an early lead and set the positive vibes
We should all go put $20 on KC to ensure an Astros victory.

I was at 2012 a&m bama game (and every game in 2012),, definitely top 5 sports experience

But yeah, a 3rd, dynasty sealing world series title is what I would vote for

It's so ridiculous at this point you just have to laugh. Donkey has earned his nickname a million f***ing times over.

GTFO with that bull****. You have absolutely no clue what our ceiling is and anyone who claims they do is a dip****.

Now if Weigman was hurt and lost for the season then your statement has some validity. He's not so give me a f***ing break with this .500 nonsense.


Some people just can't help but to be miserable.


Has nothing to do with being miserable. It's being objective. I'm firmly in the I'll believe it when I see it mind set with the Ags. The staff doesn't give me much hope. Especially Durkin. The D looks putrid. And the oline looks pretty bad too. It's my opinion but I'm expecting sec play to get painful. If it doesn't great, I'd be glad to be wrong.

But this is the Astros thread and I won't clog it up anymore with Ag talk. Go Stros!
