Posted Sunday November 16, 2008, About: Astros dumping big contracts
why would the boston globe know anything about the astros situation?

drayton mcllane would never sell of his team and rebuild (look back to 2000), even if it was for the best.

I hope the 'stros dont sign sheets--the player is a garunteed DL spot. In his contract year he's struggling to stay healthy. Also, the Astros have no hope of signing CC, he's way out of our market.

I forget where I saw this, but I remember CC saying he wants to be a Giant..?
Posted Sunday September 21, 2008, About: Why Astros agreed to Milwaukee venue
Cubs' and MLB fans attacking any Houston Astros fan should be ashamed of themselves right now. Sure, our owner made a dumb decision; and sure, some fans are taking an irrational viewpoint on the matter, but can you blame them? The majority of Houston is still power-less, as most grocery stores and business still arent running.

Most out of towners fail to recognize this, because Ike is no longer getting as big of national coverage it originally had--which is understandable, but doesnt mean the doom is over. Many Houstonians, including myself, have evacuated and have nowhere to go but hotel reservation after hotel reservation.

So excuse us for being upset, but dont call us retarded, whiny, or idiots--any fanbase would be upset after such circumstances.

I also find it pathetic that it takes me, a teenage evacuee, to point this out to y'all. "ThisBudz4Me", "Mike3775", and "jake" among others should watch their hostility. Seriosuly, guys. This is f*cking rediculous.

i hope the astros go after harden. too bad that wont happen since astros farm system is less talented than a jv softball team

"what is wrong with you people calling this guy a jerk? minor leaguers use aluminum bats, which is why he probably got killed. "

-OtherOne81

Is that a joke? Minor Leaguers use WOOD bats. College and High School use ALUMINUM bats.

hahahaha i cant see the day a manager or coach has to talk to his team through a translator
Posted Friday February 29, 2008, About: Bowa ignores new helmet rule
hows it a silly rule?

He's not exactly setting a good example for kids, either. Keep in mind kids have to wear helmets when they are allowed to coach 1st base in little league, p.o.n.y league, and eventually high school too. I cant wait to see the day a little leager from L.A refuses to wear a helmet because a coach on his favorite team doesnt need to. Players look up to these teams, and mock what the players and coaches do. Bowa should know better, hes been in the game long enough.
Posted Friday February 29, 2008, About: Will Howard's deal hurt baseball?
I know players and agents want to get as much money as they can, and there's no way a round it, but I wish these players would realize there's not that big of a difference between a 100 mil and 110 mil contract. Tim Hudson said it best--once you get that high in the contracts, your talking about making sure your grandkid's kids are going to be finacially stable. Players should raelize that this sport isnt just a game, to the dedicated fans atleast.

and Me Myself and I, i saw you demolish that Mets fan on that Truth and Rumor it was hilarious

Its a sad day when newspapers, one of the biggest media sources today, forgets to atleast mention Mr. Craig Biggio when talking about the HOF...
Posted Friday January 11, 2008, About: Rangers close to signing Jennings
drayton mcclain is the owner of the astros, not the rangers.

Posted Wednesday December 05, 2007, About: Banged-up Darko wants to play
denis, people consider him a bust because he was drafted before players like melo,wadek, bosh, kamen, etc. hes a decent player, but did not deserve a draftspot that high
Posted Monday December 03, 2007, About: Matsui moves Astros to deal
please package burke with luke scott and a mid-level pitcher and bring a number 2 pitcher thats half-decent
Posted Tuesday November 13, 2007, About: Who's on Astros' wish list?
I think well end up getting Cordero
Posted Thursday November 08, 2007, About: Phillies initially asked for Qualls
bad trade for the astros, unless they sign fransissco cordero. were left closer-less with an unproved centerfielder.
Posted Wednesday October 31, 2007, About: Texans add quarterback depth
DO WORK SON are you kidding me? The texans have been one of the better stories of the nfl this year, who have been riddled with injuries like no other team. i no every team has injuries, but our starting qb, star wide reciever, running back, and pro bowl kick returner have spent time on the DL. calling us THAT BAD is really inaccurate considering what the texans have had to deal with this year.
Posted Sunday October 07, 2007, About: Santana's changing no-trade list
That would go down as one of the worst trades of alltime:

Cubs get Johan
Twins get backup catcher and average at best pitcher
Posted Friday September 07, 2007, About: MLB exec on Astros' GM list
If Drayton only cared about putting fans in the seats why didnt he spend the extra 8 million dollars to budge on Beltran. Considering Houston's hispanic population, that would have been a no-brainer for filling out seats and earning money. Before you critisize McLane, do some research.
Posted Friday August 31, 2007, About: 5 teams Helton would consider
no, he wouldnt come to houston. we have no place for him. we have berkman at first, and have bigger quesstion marks in the bullpen, starting rotation, and even 3b
Posted Tuesday August 28, 2007, About: Astros consider GM candidates
You cant find a man with deeper pockets. Drayton is the richest owner in the MLB. He may refuse to spend his money, but he owns the most money. Yes, he even has more money than Steinbrenner. So, madhatter, its not that the astros need an owner with deeper pockets, its that we need one thats willing to spend.
