    Hey Rob, do you think you're bullpen can keep pitching well without any real flamethrowers?

    As soon as the Astros lose a couple in a row he will jump to the Dodgers anyways so you can stop giving him tips. The dark force has gotten a hold of him apparently. That is the next evolution in Darth Rob's evolution to an evil overlord.

    Hell yes, go Astro's!!! I'm from Houston originally and they're still my team though I never get to see them play because they don't televise many of their games out here in Oregon....

    ^^^^^^^^^^ You jumped off the bandwagon not even 10 days after they got their last set of rings. What am I supposed to think. The lure of the evil force in the Dodgers may take you. I just hope their is a Luke among us that can bring you back once it happens.

    HAHA, I've been an Astro's fan since I was 8 years old...I won a drawing my teacher held for tickets in class to an Astro's/Braves game...the Astro's got their ass handed to them, but I had an awesome time with my uncle and have loved them and baseball ever since...that was back in 1991...

    since I have never seen a Star Wars movie, your metaphors are lost on me.

    ironic, isn't it, that I've never seen Star Wars yet I root for the NASA inspired Astros.

    How have you never seen a single star wars movie? Even my wife who grew up in Poland during that era has seen one. You are not helping your cause.

    Now it's the 'other' team. My god what has happened. It is like being a cheated on spouse. I think a divorce is in order so you can go be happy with the actual 'other team' and we can collect fan alimony known as making fun of you whenever we can.

    You could look at it as a midlife crisis and choose to forgive him. He will come crawling back once he realizes the grass isn't greener on the other side. Just make him grovel and buy you a big ass diamond.
