How do you think we feel?? Really nice win on Thursday followed up by a couple of brutal losses.

Probably time to retire this thread for the 2024 season. Surprised there isn't a Cowboys-Texans or Mavs-Rockets thread on the other forums.


After all the Adolis Garcia gifs we had to endure early in the season… nah this thing stays going until the Astros either get eliminated or win it all





Got any from this current season?


The Texas Rangers are still Houston's current World Champions and Garcia is the reigning ALCS MVP, thanks to the absolute best down the team gave the Astros.

I hope your wife is okay from her being pushed by a Rangers fan in your stadium last season.

I look forward to seeing y'all in the playoffs this year.

Wait… the rangers will be there right? Surely your title defense won't end in a couple of weeks before October

Yep. True. Reigning champs until you are officially eliminated from repeating. Which is when? 3 losses? 4 losses?

Like Thanos, it's inevitable.

Good luck closing out the season! It's doubtful to happen, but man it would be funny if the Mariners overtook you guys.

I'm not sure if this is sarcasm, but I'll choose to believe the best. She is great but still leery of large crowds. We usually stay seated until the ushers kick us out to avoid the foot traffic, home or away. Still cheering her Astros on, though!

Likewise. I actually placed a large bet on Houston 1st and Seattle 2nd at the beginning of the season as an emotional hedge after finally getting a World Series last year. So, I actually do hope y'all can close it out.

But then I hope you promptly lose in the first series.

I think we get to the ALCS but right now I would pick the Yankees or Orioles to win that.

I think it's the Phillies year

I agree but will soon no longer be Defending World Series Champs. I'm sure when this happens you'll inform STAFF so they'll modify the title on y'alls season thread to reflect that reality.

I wouldn't rule out CLE. Going to be especially interesting if both of you are in a division race during that last series.

Julio Rodriguez should be worrying about his titanic dropoff at the plate.

2023 102 runs scored, 180 hits, 37 2B, 32 HR, 103 RBi, 37 SB, .818 OPS
2024 65 runs, 134 hits, 15 2b, 16 HR, 53 RBi, 22 SB, .711

Not exactly what's supposed to happen at age 23

I know it's been a while since you've seen a Houston (other than the Astros, obviously) team in the finals of their sport, but I'm sure you'd enjoy it.

Either way… city sports smack coming from a Houston fan, is pretty stupid, don't you think?

Yes and no. I promise there was no celebration after losing to the Braves or Nats. Plenty to celebrate while winning the CS tho, then later reflecting back.

That's pretty much exactly my point…. No one celebrated the Stars or Mavs losing their finals, but definitely celebrated winning the conference finals.

Yep. In case you forgot, Mavs added Klay Thompson. Tilman scooped up a 4th straight lottery pick. He should probably stick to dishing out sea bass and sell the team.
