I'm torn on whether to get this... I told myself that the ride was worth it even though the end was disappointing, but I still don't know if I would be able to relive all of the buildup knowing how it all ended. (Kind of like Million Dollar Baby)

Plus, the title is so damned embarrassing... I know they won the National League, but calling it "The Championship Season" is a stubbornly cheerful account.

Like watching grass grow, watching those Astros score in the playoffs sometimes. Nonetheless, I watched every game and even though I am a Rangers fan, I would watch this. So if I were an Astros fan, methinks I would buy it.

Careful with that smack, Melissa. That's what people used to say about the Spurs offense.............. :eyebrows

See you in May/June!

Yeah, probably. I'm really only consider myself a casual Astros fan but my first baseball cap ever was an Astros one when I was about 8. An orange one with a blue star and a white H (get it). I went to some of their games in the early '90's too when I lived there.

So what team are you a big fan of? Or do you have one? There is plenty of room on the Rangers bandwagon. :lol

^^ :tu I wore it every day!

Mel, I guess I should really say that i'm a casual "baseball" fan. The Astros would be the team I follow in all my casualness. I'm thinking about driving over to Houston to catch a few games this summer.

I am thinking of doing the same. I have been to Ameriquest a couple of times, so it's time to go to Minute Maid. National League small ball! Bah! :lol
