BUMMER!!! BUMMER!!! BUMMER!!!

Congratulation, great pitching.

Now that this is over I have only 2 question.

Who took our Cardinals and what did they do with them?

Can you sue a team over emotional distress?????

Can you sue a team over emotional distress?????

Yes. As a long time Astros fan, I was already checking with legal counsel on that one.

I was a baseball mad little leaguer in Houston before they had a major league team. I remember how exciting it was to go to games in the old Colt Stadium (for you youngsters the Astros started life as the Houston Colt 45s. It was a temporary stadium but I loved it because you could wait for the players to come out of the locker rooms and actually interact with them. In addition to the Colts I got autographs from visiting hall-of-famers to be like Mays, Aaron, Koufax, McCovey, and Frank Robinson this way. When the Astrodome opened I was there for that first exhibition series against the Yankees and saw Mickey Mantle hit a towering home run. The Astrodome was such a novelty then it was known as the Eighth Wonder of the World and they used to offer guided tours of the stadium to tourists. My sister was in the first group of tour guides. I followed the early careers of Rusty Staub, Joe Morgan andf the toy cannon Jimmy Wynn. Although I moved out of Houston for good I followed the Astros for many years from afar having my heart broken in 1980 when they lost the greatest NLCS series ever to the Phillies. Miami has been home since 1988 and I've been lucky to see my Marlins win two WS. But here's a toast to my first home team, the Astros. Thanks for the memories and congratulations on your first world series. It's been almost a lifetime coming.

If we can I'll be rich after what my beloved Royals did this year.
