HOUSTON — The Houston Astros have fired Brandon Taubman, the assistant general manager who came under fire for inappropriate comments he made during the team’s clubhouse celebration.
The Astros announced Taubman’s firing Thursday.
Sports Illustrated writer Stephanie Apstein reported during the Astros’ clubhouse celebrating after winning the American League Championship Series, Taubman allegedly shouted, “Thank God we got Osuna! I’m so f------ glad we got Osuna!” during the locker room celebration.

Perhaps the three female reporters shouldn't be in a locker room.
Sad that a team in Texas has been demasculated. Now I hope they lose the World Series.
You're in a lockeroom, the champagne is flying, your eyes are stinging, and this guy noticed that the three woman were wearing little domestic violence bracelets?
I wouldn’t know what a domestic violence bracelet was if it was 8 inches in front of me.
Why are chicks in the Men’s locker room?
Can I interview the Women’s volleyball team post shower?
Those were crazy times.
Anyway, the Houston Astros have not learned the vital lesson: Never bend a knee to the outrage mob. Never!
As a result, they are about to get blown out of the World Series.
Yes, the incident has little to do with baseball but what happened in the back offices has obviously poisoned the efforts on the field. The Astros lost Game 2 by a score of 12-3 on their home field last night and now trail the series 2 games to 0 with the next three games in enemy territory.
They are basically screwed as a team and as an organization.
It sad, they had a great series against New York and came into the World Series with high hopes and good prospects. Now all of that has been flushed down the toilet like a bunched up napkin full of phlegm.
But those Bruins...they were on top of the world back in the early 1970s.
Mattress Mack is not going to be happy.

Now, your being in a woman’s locker room would constitute sexual harassment on your part. Making a woman uncomfortable in the workplace is forbidden. You should be ashamed to even think such a thing. But it might be all right if you declared yourself a “woman”.
I swear, I’m getting of the day-to-day craziness. Big news today, a father may be allowed to have a say in his son’s “transition” to being “girl”.
Wearing such bracelets doesn’t mean they actually experienced domestic violence.
“The story does not indicate that an Astros player was being taunted.”
I am not surprised.
SJW got butthurt. apparently the gals were wearing whatever color ribbon is for domestic violence. Of course Osuna was wrong but they want him banned from the game. Same crowd that has no problems with felons voting.

crybabies
Who are they going to fire for the team bending over to the Nationals?
Women in the locker room, nothing ever goes wrong.......
Houston s now a SJW town.
Texans of old used to say they will leave the union.
Twenty years too late now.
They have joined the Prius states.
There has to be more to this story. There has to be....
No longer is presumed innocence the hallmark of justice. Shame.
And I'm not a fan of either team....
Houston s now a SJW town.

All the big cities have.....there might be a little hope for Ft. Worth....I hope so anyway. I’d never leave Texas...this little bastion of the state is Christian, Conservative, Gun-Totin’ folks who don’t put up with any SJW crap!.......God Bless Texas
