Update on Shirtgate

Major League Baseball has now yanked the "Daddy" shirt from the online store. After the barrage of phone calls and emails, we suspect they had a big pow-wow and decided to pull the crass shirts rather than add an additional anti-Yankees shirt to the Red Sox online store. Stay tuned...

Do not underestimate the POWER of Red Sox Nation!!

I'm shocked. This was devastating. Even though he was divorced, he had a beautiful wife and daughters," said Diamondbacks outfielder Luis Gonzalez, who played with Caminiti on the Astros between 1990 and 1994. "He was one of the most intense players I've ever seen. I'm worried for [Craig] Biggio and [Jeff] Bagwell because those guys are playing in the biggest game of their lives [Monday]."

``We're a good team, they're a good team,'' first baseman Doug Mientkiewicz said. ``The past has absolutely nothing to with it.''

Game 5 had to be the greatest game I ever played. I kept getting guys on base in the middle innings, and could not get ANYONE home. (I was Boston) Finally...I single with Damon. Steal second. Work the count with Nixon and draw a walk (I had him batting 2nd). I double steal, and my friend walks Manny on about 11 pitches. Next up...DAVID ORTIZ.

First pitch...high and inside....fastball...GOODBYE BASEBALL.

7-5, Sox lead. Millar and Bellhorn ended up grounding out afterward, but the damage was done.

I was warming up Bronson Arroyo and Pedro Martinez. We agreed that if you were going ot bring in a starter in relief after having pitched...it'd have to be at least 1 day of rest. For every 1 day of rest, you could go one extra batter. Arroyo K'd Kent twice I believe in the previous game, and had him go 0-3. So...I decided to bring in Arroyo with Kent up to bat. BAM GOODBYE....7-6, Sox still up. I brought in Foulke to seal the deal.

Schilling threw off the mount at 3:00. Feeling fine. A little shot of something at gametime tomorrow and its lights out.

Why does Kuroyume hate the Astros so much? You'd think a Yankee fan wouldn't even know or care about them. ;)

Only a couple hours left, right?
A couple hours until the Astros prove they're cursed.

Fool.

This is the day.

This is the day we break the curse.

This is the day the day when the futility ends.

This is the day they conquer the Braves.

This is the day when Bidge and Bags show the national audience that they're not done yet.

This is the day the Astros win a playoff series.

Mike "Great" Scott, JR, Cami, and all the other great past Astros: this one's for you.

"just saw part of a press conference with Bidge and Bags on Sportscenter and they really looked like they were hurtin bad over Cammy ... Bidge's eyes told the whole story

Bags said the best way they could honor Cammy at this moment was to go out there and play their butts off.

Win or lose ... The Stros will honor Cammy tonight with effort"

Bring that shit Stros! Follow Bags win or lose...all out effort! Its time to rise beyond past history and create new history!

Good morning. In less than an hour, fans from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest fanatic battle in this history of mankind.

Mankind -- that word should have new meaning for all of us today.

We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore.

We will be united in our common interests.

Perhaps its fate that today is the 11th of October; and you will once again be fighting for the life of our team, not by getting a new team, as was the case in 1960, when Judge Roy Hofheinz, promised National League officials the team would receive a Domed stadium. Not from oppression, or persecution -- but from playoff elimination

We're fighting for our right to live, to exist.

And should we win the day, the 11th of October will no longer be known as the birth of our Houston Astros, but as the day when the world declared in one voice:

"We will not go quietly into the night.

We will not vanish without a fight.

We're going to live on.

We're going to survive."

Today, we celebrate our OUR NLDS VICTORY!

I think the Disastros fans are cracking. :lol

I was the same way though before game 5 of the Cubs/Braves ALDS game last year too. :lol


Postseason ERA:


Oswalt
0-0, 1.42




Wright
0-1, 12.46

Disastros better not lose....

Oh yeah? Even Clemens? But wouldn't that mean he would have to attend a road game where he isn't scheduled to start? Maybe he had some prior arrangements to be at a fashion show in Houston... :p

true, I was like... "k, why is this on 10 minutes prior to a huge Astros/Braves game?". Then I got sucked into the footage. But anyway, I think the Braves are the team doomed to have their curse repeated. Cubs never won a playoff series since 1945 last year but beat the Braves. I think Roy Oswalt is the right man also. Anyone with explosive stuff that can pitch 8 innings, Atlanta can't handle. Wood dominated them last year. Oswalt looked to be close to that level of dominance in game 2.
