I Fucking Hate......

[Afro-Ameri-Spawn]

This son of a bitch.

Milwaukee as a neutral site for Astros/Brewers? Are you fucking kidding me? Do you not KNOW where Chicago is? It's because of YOU that My Stros have been on a losing streak that will probably keep them from taking the Widlcard spot. Thanks alot you stupid bitch.

Sorry guys, I had to rant.

 

[Hyorinmaru]

I have no idea who that is

 

[Mr. TM]

Bud Selig

 

[Afro-Ameri-Spawn]

I have no idea who that is

Bud Selig, commisioner of baseball. Same man who said that after an extensive investigation that they were not able to find ANY proof of steroid use in the game of baseball.

 

[justinsayne]

Dude is kinda a tool, I mean just look at the guy, he's got ****** written all over him

 

[Afro-Ameri-Spawn]

I thought he was what was left over after God made Bill Gates. Kinda like his ******ed twin brother that they found swimming around in the afterbirth.

You mean kinda like Danny Devito in Twins?

 

[Afro-Ameri-Spawn]

Exactly. Doesn't he look like Gates slower brother? It's kinda like watching George and Jeb Bush standing next to each other, cept you can tell which one is dumber.

Yeah I see what you mean

So, now it's Selig's fault that the Astros managed a grand total of 1 hit in two games? For those of you who struggle with math, that's less than one hit per game. Hard to win many games when you can't even average one hit a game.

No, but he could have chosen a more neutral location for the game with the Cubs, Milwaukee was not the best choice, seeing as how it's suppose to be a home game for Houston but was played and hour, hour and a half away from Chicago, sounds more like he was giving the Cubs more of a home field advantage than the Astros

 

[BooCocky]

not the locations fault.

1 hit wont win many games.

No, it WAS the best choice, because it sold tickets.

These are big leaguers. This isn't Little League Baseball. You still have to hit and throw the ball. Teams win on the road all the time.

1 hit in two games.

 

[BooCocky]

i dont care. it still wouldnt win a game let alone two.

Well, if your one hit was a HR, and your pitcher threw a no-hitter.


But, who throws a no-hitter in September?

no one?

It sold tickets because the Cubs are in the race for the playoffs and Milwaukee happens to be the closest ball park to Chicago. Hell they might as well have had the game in the southside of Chicago at the White Sox stadium.

no way in hell that those games with playoff implications onthe line should have been played in Milwaukee. Plenty of stadiums in Texas, and the surrounding areas.

It wasn't the best choice, it was a conflict of interest to have it there as Selig used to be the owner. That would be like if George Bush were running for president again and the presidential debates were held at Texas Ranger stadium.

The thing is that with the home games, The Astros had alot of momentum from the crowds at home. And this was supposed to be a home game. How can you honestly tell me that the crowd is not a factor in games? That's why it's called HOME FIELD ADVANTAGE. When it was moved to Milwaukee, home field was shifted from the Stros to the Cubs. And that's ain't right and played a part in their momentum.

A conflict of interest? That's disputable, especially since I doubt that Milwaukee got much of the gate. Probably got enough to pay vendors, and then the rest was split between the Cubs and Astros, just like always.

And, the thing is that with the home games, the Astros are 43-31 at home. They've lost 31 games at home. Who are you to say that Zambrano wouldn't have shut them out at home? Furthermore, they are 38-41 on the road, meaning they have won 38 road games this year.

So, you're telling me that the reason they lost three games in a row was because of where they played, and not because they just ran into two buzzsaws in a row? At the end of the day, you still have to win the game.


The ONLY reasonable excuse for the 'Stros was playing immediately after the hurricane, while their families had to pick up the pieces of their homes and such. I can buy that. But location being the reason they lost? Not a chance. The reason they lost is because they had ONE hit in TWO games.
