Rangers fans….. next year, you can win the division and have home field advantage. Maybe it will play out like this year. lol -

Congrats to the Rangers. The better team won. I can’t figure out what home field advantage is all about. Neither team won at home. Still an Astros fan. That will never change. Will pull for the Texas team to win it all. Best state in the country. -

Sorry Bullets, I’m not trying to legitimize anything. What I am saying, or trying to say is this…… Call it legitimizing or whatever, it really doesn’t matter to me. The fact is that cheating is in every sport. Whether or not people want to own up to it makes no difference to me. The fact that every pitcher is frisked after every inning tells me that something is rampant. Managers or catchers approach the mound and cover their mouths with their hand or glove….why? Catchers change their pitch signals when a runner is on 2nd…..why? Pine tar rules…..corked bats……steroids….did I leave any out? All are forms of cheating and most are overlooked or forgotten. To say that all players were using steroids was an attempt to legitimize. How about if everyone was using cameras in the outfield. Would that smooth things a bit? The one defining moment in all of this is the Astros used high tech “2nd base” signal theft and got caught. Everyone loved Sosa’s HRs until he broke a corked bat and got caught. -

Did you look up the numbers since then? That one line was all you gleaned from my post? Even if the sign is stolen from 2nd base, don’t you still have to hit the ball? I try not to let hate enter into any sporting event. As a fan, what do you think that did to me? I wasn’t happy at all. Six more ALCS appearances since then tells me they didn’t need it to win. I guess if you let hate steer you, you’ll always see it your way. Good luck tonight -

I’m not going to defend what they did as being right. I’m saying it didn’t help them win a WS. We won our road games even back then, especially in Boston……where they were doing the same thing. Always remember every pitcher in every game, after every inning has to essentially be frisked. Hey, I wonder why they do that? You’re always going to have people who have acceptable levels of cheating and simply call it part of the game. -

Kinda proves they didn’t need to steal signs like others do from 2nd base. I knew this would surface sooner or later. -
Just for the record, I thought it was a bad call on 3rd down, but like you said, no guarantees…..but at least it gives you a chance.

Texas wins a close one. I hate early big leads.

Astros just won 3-in-a-row. I see no negatives in the future. Momentum carries for lots of games. Just had to get that 1st win. Nothing more exciting than a nail-biter. Go Astros! -
Rand Paul Really Might Take Anthony Fauci Down With Bombshell Revelation!
baddog replied to Reagan's topic in Political Forum
lol. Either way, she’s supposedly in the medical field and should know better. I can see how they hand out diplomas that aren’t worth the paper they’re written on, then force you and me to pay for it and have it shoved in our faces. -

Your diploma is very revealing. It’s ophthalmologist. -

Ever heard of gain of function? Did Fauci predict the pandemic? Why didn’t you predict it? You’re in the medical profession. Didn’t you see it coming? -

It’s the life of a pitcher. Sometimes your stuff is great, sometimes not. Was he rusty, probably, but what could be better from the opponent’s view? Astros bats were clicking…. And that’s always going to be the argument. Scherzer’s stuff looked good to me and he was getting some calls off the plate….a pitcher’s dream. As long as it’s called both ways, I love calls like that. Go Astros -
