In a way I kinda want Houson to take this game because they've worked so damn hard and each small mistake they make, we keep on $panking that @zz. If Chicago takes this, its gonna be a wrap

The Rockets along with the Spurs are favorites to win the West. The Rockets are loaded and have one of the best benches in the league.

Where is Leon "the Bull" Durham, Gary "the Sarge" Matthews, Andre "the Hawk" Dawson and Ron "the Penguin" Cey.

You know your team can't hit, but what did you do when Chris Burke reached third base with one out in the ninth inning? Nothing. No squeeze play. Not with Craig Biggio batting and then not with Willy Taveras batting -- both of whom are excellent bunters. If you are having so much trouble getting a run home with a hit, if you are really so "ticked off" waiting for a hit, why not make something happen with a squeeze attempt?
This is the same thing I was saying And this about sums up why the Astros lost that game. They had plenty of chances.

how about when Burke stole 3rd that one time.... Sox fans were like damn son... that guy hustled. Was that in the 9th, I think it was earlier... I don't remember... but I thought the momentum of the game was about to shift at that point..... but it didn't. Too bad for the Astros.

Catcher A.J. Pierzynski, who refers to himself as "Fatty," credited himself with putting the heat on Blum to produce.

"I told him he was going to hit a home run to win it," Pierzynski said. "I told him, 'You're a Killer B,' and he laughed at me."

Said Blum: "A.J. told me 'Fatty is hungry and he needs to eat.' I did it for his stomach."



i love the last line
