As sorry as they have played this year they are still within striking range of the title. They have played better over the last week or so but can they  get back in the race? Michael Bourn sp is having a decent year and can the kid fly or what? Anyone see that bomb hit by Berkman just now? WOW

I saw it, and then we turn around and give up two. From years past, we all know the Stros can turn it around at anytime fro no explainable reason but we'll have to wait and see.

It will be such a risk either way as far as future trades go.

Maybe with two last drafts we had that we will have a bright future.

Just won their 5th the series in a row. 3 games below .500 and 4 back.

Hope

IF IF IF They can get any pitching which is a big if second half could be good. Tejada sp is in the final year of his contract and crazy how he is putting the medal to the pedal.  ??? They are starting to hit the ball and IF berkman can heat up we be in good shape. Horrible division but could get interesting.

The NL Central is all playing the same baseball. Every team is within 4 games back from the Cardinals. If the Astros want to have a chance, they will have to hope the other teams slow down, and that the Astros don't. They absolutely need to win the season series with the Cardinals, though. My stand on who they should trade still hasn't changed though. They still need to get ride of Tejada, because Manzella is batting .300 in Triple A, and will be the full time short stop next season. I do think they need to keep Pudge, as he is the only catcher in the system worth anything besides Castro, who is still probably a year away.

      Both teams have improved, but BC was quite a bit better than HJ last year, and the hawks have probably lost some ground from that point.

      The rumblings of a stagnant offense have been around for a long time.  Started a few years before Coach Mathews retired.  The rumblings were masked cause of how liked Coach Mathews was and is. As far as the community being toxic or kids hearing how bad it is.... That is false.  People are still showing up on Friday nights to watch football.  Kids are still suiting up to play on Friday nights.  People have not lined the halls of a school board meeting demanding coaches be fired.  People are not putting up signs in their front yards saying fire coaches.... etc.  All people are wanting is some kind of change... and when is that such a bad thing?!?! Kids aren't hearing how bad the team is from supporters... they hear that on social media from other kids in different schools.  Kids are smart enough to know that they are behind the times when it comes to the offensive scheme.  Kids watch other programs and what they do on offense and wonder why they can't do that?!?!?  Why can't we practice passing plays?!?!? Etc... and after a while kids do get fed up and say screw it, I'm not playing football anymore... IT IS NOT FUN running the same 3, 4, 5 plays.  You are right when you say Vidor has lost their identity and I do not believe Dubois is the coach to bring that identity back.  Many, many, many years ago the great Coach Dan Hooks was interviewed before a Vidor game... can't remember his exact words but it was something along the lines of Vidor is going to punch you in the mouth repeatedly and you'll know when the game is over that you played Vidor...  Vidor went on to beat WO-S that night in Vidor. Vidor needs that coach that will lite a fire under your or lite your a$$ up for messing up.  Vidor needs that coach that will go to absolute war with you.  Vidor needs change!

      Couldnt have said it any better sir. Dubois needs to find a way to get community and player buy in and let the rest work itself out

      I fully agree, agreed with it in the post after, different formations will also cause hesitation so backers cant just shoot a and b gaps and just blow plays up before they have a chance to develop

      Just ask Cleveland.  They didn’t bring their A game and lost 70-10 to Splendora.  You just never know.
