Oh, man. I want the Astros because they never won before. This is making it tough.

Meaning no disrepect ... but if you're feeling conflicted, take a page from Oswalt's playbook and buck up ...

Go Astros!

When I was growing up in the 1960s, I was an Astro fan big time. I lived in Alabama. I could only get the Cardinals on KMOX out of St. Louis, sometimes the Reds out of a station in Cincy. Then the Braves after they moved to Atlanta. But, I was a huge Colt 45s then Astros fan. Rusty Staub, Bob Aspromonte, Sonny Jackson, Joe Morgan, John Bateman, Jimmy "the toy cannon" Wynn, Larry Dierker, Mike Cuellar, Don Wilson, Barry Latman, Bob Lillis. I loved the Astros. Then they traded Rusty to Montreal, Joe to the Reds, Wynn to the Dodgers. I kind of moved over to the Braves and Hank Aaron. But, I still have a real soft spot for the Astros. It really is fantastic to see them get in. I will be rooting for them all the way!!!
