    Lot of different faces on both teams. Astros have stumbled out of the box a little bit, pitching hasn't been bad but we haven't scored the runs that we thought we would. Cecil Cooper assured us that we were ready to break out of our slump.

    Hopefully Lance Berkman will be fully recovered from the kneck spasms he endured in Chicago.

    I'm ready for those dirty birds!! :)

    The last time I heard from AJ he was yelling into his cellphone while crossing the state line into the Motherland. He was one excited muhfugger. He still has the fambly to move, so he might be tied up with that.

    I have Wandy Rodriguez on my fantasy team. He's a real road kitten, isn't he?

    kneck spasms? Is this some sort of Monty Python-like spasm that begins at the neck and works its way down to the knee.......or vice versa? :lol: :lol:

    Yeah last year Wandy's road ERA was something like triple his ERA at home. I am hoping that he has a big improvement on the road this year with no drop off at home. That would be huge for the Astros.

    Sid as you may know Lance is an Elvis clone and sometimes when shaking his head and saying "Thank You, Thank You very much" ...he has neck problems.

    He's also known around here as the Big Puma, for his fabulous physique and cat like agility!

    Hey who's concerned with the Cardinals and the Astros when the Marlins and the Nationals are playing?

    Well BDR got some good work out of Wandy tonight, and the Astros let the CArds back into the game in the 9th inning ..but pulled it out with Miguel Tejadas bottom of the ninth walk off homerun.

    Always good to get a win vs the Redbirds!!

    Rick,

    Are we supposed to read what you write, or just watch your avatar?

    So far... I haven't gotten past the avatar.

    Funny you say that, Scott. I've been thinking the same thing and even when I do read what he writes I have trouble remembering it.
