I would also like to congratulate the Astro’s!

This is by far the most exciting two months they have ever given us fans!

Too bad for Bags and Biggio. I sure thought this might be the year Fellas!

I reckon all I can say is CHIN UP! Y’ALL DONE GOOD!

Thank you to the whole organization!

Helluva game, tense until the sixth.

And Sox-Cards is gonna be a helluva series.

You’re a class act, **lieu** , even when you’re talking about poo. 🙂

Well, I’m disappointed that the 'Stros faded at the end, but man, that was some pretty baseball played by St. Louis in tonight’s game. I’m not gonna presume to guess how the WS might go, but it certainly looks like Boston’s gonna have to bring it big time.

Go, uh, Cards.

Hats off to the Cards for saving us from the pain of having to listen about a Texas / Massachusetts Series during election time.

I hadn’t thought of that.

Well, some good has come of this anyway…  
But man, I wanted someone there who’d never been before.

Nothing but respect for all of you honorable 'Stros fans in this thread. You guys played unbelievably - if nothing else your club has exercised the playoff demons. We’ll be seeing you again soon. 😉

Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to drink like a rock star.

Heeeeeyaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!
