I was hoping he would wait till Friday when I had tickets, but it was an awesome thing to see even on TV. Love the fact that he busted his butt trying to stretch it to a double.  Just happy I have been able to watch such a great player.

its not negative just realistic, the majority of fans are here are homers, and thats fine.  But they lose their objectivity because of it, the Astros, this year are dead in the water.  Biggio is a great player, not just for his 3000 hits, but I applaud him for being one of the few who has done it with one team and not been a mercenary for hire on the free agent market.  So from that he has my respect as a professional.  But there are some who will take that game with him getting 3000, Lee hitting a walk off cold cut combo to win it and say this is where the Astros make their run, and it just ain't happening.

Actualy they have only done it two years, last year was more the Cardinals fallling completely off the map more than anything. 

I have to agree with Dennis here - this team is going nowhere.  They are 14 games back and it's not even the allstar break yet.  And there is no one aspect of this team that you can look to and say "This is what is going to keep us in the race."  They don't have a potent offense, their bullpen is terrible, the starting pitching has been better than most thought it would be, but is still mediocre.

Time to get as much value as you can from your tradeable commodities - Loretta, Lamb, Jennings, Qualls or Wheeler and Lidge.  And if some sucker GM wants Ensberg - take whatever he offers you.

    • Just because they are possibly in the worst 4A D1 district in Texas. If your measure of a "Championship" program falls at the level of the district (and an extremely weak one at that) then we have much different expectations and definitions of what a Championship Program is.
    • What’s prevented them before this decision?
    • Well having the AD/HFC combined position hasn’t exactly been the answer over the last 75 years (or however long Warren’s been playing football).  This is probably the best move they could make with Smithey bailing so late.  At least it provides the kids with some stability as these two guys were there this past year. The program is been trending in a positive direction over the last three years why not stay the course with two guys who want to be there…Wishing the best for Warren.
    • Infrastructure bill?? How many EV charging stations has he built? You can count that on one hand. What else has been done with those $trillions? See, you’re lying and you know it.  Those $trillion’s went to Ukraine to be laundered and come back to Schumer and Co. Why else would he get so excited about infrastructure?
    • Hopefully Texas will win their case in court to simply make suppressors legal without the federal tax stamp. I doubt it as the interstate commerce clause is far reaching. For those who may not know, in Texas a firearms suppressor is legal but they are still against federal law without a federal tax stamp. Texas removed them from prohibited weapons a couple of years ago. Texas is currently fighting a case in court that if the suppressor is manufactured completely in Texas and never leaves Texas, it would not then fall under the interstate commerce clause. The ICC allows any commerce that crosses a state line to be controlled by the US Congress under the Constitution in Article I.
