habu2 Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 As I watch game 6 (another great game) I'm shaking my head. People: when you have prime seats right behind home plate - right where TV cameras capture you right behind the batter on Every Single Pitch - please, dude, please don't pick your nose...

Joel_W Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 While I'm not a Astros nor Dodger fan, I'm a Yankee fan, which makes me a American league fan (unless Boston playing), and my favorite sport is baseball not football. That much so that work told me NOT to come in till the game is over. I was never expecting anything like that. Joel Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Slartibartfast Posted November 2, 2017 Author Share Posted November 2, 2017 (edited) Astros win their first World Series! I've been in Houston since 1968. This is a L O N G time coming. Some day the Houston football team will make the Super Bowl. Edited November 2, 2017 by Slartibartfast Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Don Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Well done Astros! Their pitching tonight came through when they needed it. Springer with a timely dinger and the Dodgers stranding at least 8...great game awesome series! Congrats Houston!! Regards, Don Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tosouthern66 Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 As a Texas Rangers fan I want to say Congratulations to the 2017 World Series Champion Houston Astros! Well done and thank you for bringing a World Series Championship to Texas!!!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
viper730 Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Wow incredible World Series. So happy for my Astros and The Folks in Houston that needed a lift after Hurricane Harvey. Anybody remember that 2014 Sprots Illustrated story that they would be the 2017 Champs. makes me wonder Did he put his money where his pen was....Certainly he feels vindicated because they lost something like 105 games in 2014...GeauxStros Quote Link to post Share on other sites

john53 Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 (edited) Congratulations! Best series I have ever seen, definitely NOT one sided. BTW I still have my Wilson "Red Rooster" glove from the 70s!---John Edited November 2, 2017 by john53 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
k5ikl Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Way to go Astros!!!! One thing I noticed about this series, I never did see a player take a knee during the National Anthem. If any did, they must have been back in the dugout. Jerry Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Joel_W Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Arranged at work to come in 2-3 hours late so I could watch the game. Congrats Astros for your 1st World Series Championship. If my Yanks couldn't do it, I'm glad that the title went to a well deserving American league time. For a change it was nice to see that the offenses were the dominant force and not just the pitching. The only bad part is now I have to wait until Feb for spring training to start. Joel Quote Link to post Share on other sites

In 2008 they moved to Arlington, and are currently building a massive training facility in Frisco. The only association the Cowboys have with Dallas is their distant past... so just like their fans?

I remember, when they were at Texas Stadium with its Great Big Hole in the roof, we used to call it the "Half-As(s)-trodome" (subtle tie-in to Houston Astros ) Edited November 2, 2017 by habu2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
