Rangers live rent free in your head

---

I love it as long as the Astros win.

I have a large head.

---

Astros fans are nearly as insufferable as Philadelphia Fans. And that's really saying something.

---

Really? Because the Rangers fans were cheering when they thought Jose almost got hit in the head. That's ****ed up.

The man never cheated, he doesn't deserve to be booed, and he's certainly as **** does not deserve to be cheered on when a ball comes near his head.

---

Any words now Annie? Is it okay to throw high and tight to Garcia?

---

Yes it is. This is how baseball works. I think Garcia would agree with me.

Yuli never played for the Cubs.

No ***** He played for the Astros while Yu Darvish was on the Dodgers.

I understood the reference.

I was implying that your assumption was inaccurate.

This is a fun game!

Rangers fans were absolutely insufferable on this forum back when they were good.

I've been an Astros fan from when I went to my first 45's game 59 years ago. Astros fans aren't any better now. It's a product of being good. People who have nothing at all to do with it start to flex. I've got a good friend that pitched 7 MLB seasons, 3 with the Astros and even he doesn't say we when talking about them or puff his chest at other fans.

I suggest you watch both of these.

---

First video - His story changes 3 times on why he didn't want his jersey pulled off. His team is full of cheaters, but we should trust he was clean.

Second video - The Astros superfan who collected all the data.... still says - "that he found the fewest instances during Altuve's at-bats of trash can banging". Fewest cheating moments still equals cheating though.

However, it is what it is. Altuve is still a damn good hitter and hit a piss missle tonight in Arlington. But to say he never cheated is disingenuous. He may have cheated less, but that doesn't mean he didn't cheat.

---

I watched that documentary, and it was really well done and I am an Astros fan. I would still like to know, specifically on Altuve, what were the outcomes when the trashcan was hit for him…was at an advantage for him? In the end, prior to and after it all, he has been a great hitter, there is literally no denying it and it was proven again tonight. He is a future HOF if he continues to do what he is doing, that isn't up for debate.

Didn't they hit better on the road than at home in those playoffs?

---

Yes they did.

No, it doesn't. It doesn't prove that Altuve was even listening to it or knew what it was.

What hot garbage.

The fact that people are still talking about this bull**** six years later is just pathetic. At the time I thought they should've named names. And I still hold of that.

It's not fair to others to get dragged down with that.

Then you add an all the other signs stealing, and bull**** things that were going on around the league that nobody cares about.

As a complete newbie to baseball only due to the Ags recent success and hire of schloss I am completely indifferent to either team against each other. I will route for whichever wins from here on out. That being said from my perspective the Astro's fans on this site are by far more antagonistic and cocky than the rangers fans.

---

And go back to 2011 and roles are reversed. That's how these things work when you're on top.

---

You mean before we were division rivals and most fans in DFW didn't mind the Astros?

---

That is interesting revisionist history, or maybe your circle of peers didn't care. I was on campus during those years, and trust me the cocky attitude was overwhelming from Rangers fans.

---

Well, in all fairness, we were 56106 that year.

No one was concerned with the Astros then.

Adolis Garcia says fellow Cuban Yordan Alvarez of the Astros helped calm him down by urging him to look at him. Alvarez told him the Astros didn’t hit him on purpose. #Goandtakeit #Ready2Reign pic.twitter.com/Zjq38Nf0bm

So I guess you believe the Manred report which concluded that most of the Astros did steal signs. But not the part that said that Altuve did not. What special knowledge do you have that the commissioner did not?

---

They also believe the buzzer theory which has been proven false by pretty much everybody with knowledge including the national baseball media

---

Yeah, that's extra pathetic.

Like flat-earther bull*****

wiggythump said:

You are literally tripping over yourself. You started this whole thread to ***** about the Rangers throwing high and tight on Altuve. But now it's okay when the roles are reverse. Lmao.

And you rose to the bait.

So not going to address the 1st video? OK

Like I've said, he is a damn good hitter, nobody has denied that. However, he was caught up in the **** and people have questions. If you are complaining that people are still talking about it 6 years later, I wonder how you survive on the Politics board!

Who cheered when he almost got hit? Fans like that are pathetic.

And yes, he cheated. The entire team cheated and got caught. Odds are every team in baseball did something but the Astros were the worst.

You also won 2 World Series, so very jealous.

---

Jos Altuve absolutely never cheated.

And no, the Astros weren't the worst.

Is there anything that can defeat the dreaded "nuh-uh" defense?
