Astros are HOT

Astros game 3 of 4 vs Seattle first pitch 1:10 this afternoon. Zack Greinke gets the start today. New arms in the bullpen but getting it done on the mound. Still no YORDAN but the bats have been hot so who cares. One more on Monday with Seattle and then look who comes to town.

Aren’t we boycotting MLB?

Yep I bet Houston is really proud of their kneelers

In.

Geez you guys are everywhere. We’re talking, watching ASTROS baseball here if you don’t mind. CNN is 24/7 go enjoy yourself.

Malfunctioning puppets is all they are.

Boycotting to me means the few rotten apples spoiled the whole basket. Many of those players not only step. Up to the plate it the game. They also step u to the plate when help is needed.

I am.

True colors...

As a lifelong fan I hardly ever missed a game ...until now and Im done with All pro sports for now.
You can watch and condone this behavior for your entertainment needs or choose not to support and send the right message. Sure have a lot of time for more important things now

Was hoping the Astros would not do this. They just lost me as a fan and supporter.

So do they keep a camera on the guy beating on the trashcan now?

X2

Seeing grown men making big bucks playing a game and kneeling like they're some kind of martyr for a cause, is beyond rediculous.

Paying money to see it, more so.

Yeah, have they started cheating yet?

If everyone would stop paying attention and stop talking about them they would probably quit that sh*t. They are like little kids. Quit paying attention to what they are doing and it isn't fun anymore and they quit.

To heck with all sports I won't even watch the Bassmasters I'm done with all of it. If it doesn't have one of my grandkids in it I won't bother.

I'll tune into rodeo events. They still stand and honor the flag the way it should be honored.

Hopefully Altuve takes a few wild pitches to the crotch.

That’s disappointing. To me that means management probably told them to kneel. If they didn’t there probably would have been some that stood. Astros have many players from other countries that the star spangled banner does not hold the same meaning to.

They won't stand for the flag but are OK with cheating. I'm gone.

I’m so fortunate that God made me NOT addicted to the boob tube and professional sports......when you’re gone no one will talk about or relive the hours upon hours sitting on your a$$ watching a game IMO......

Guess cheating their way to a WS wasn’t enough

You have it all wrong! The people that watch CNN support these types of Anti American disgraceful actions.

I on the other hand cannot stand nor understand how any law abiding American citizen with any kind of morals could possibly watch there by support this outrageous disrespect of our National Anthem and country!

BTW I watch FOX and OAN and proudly fly the Texas and American flag on my flag pole in the front yard.

Worth repeating


Unless you was a bookie.

Disgraceful, I'm out. Rangers didn't kneel in their opener but the pre-game BLM BS was enough for me to turn the channel. Done with them too. Skrew them all.

Even overpaid pro sports employees need tax deductions.

Not all of them...

Timing couldn’t be any better for them to step up and do something with their money and their time; somehow I have missed it don’t know why they would keep it a secret.....

I should have said they didn't kneel during the National Anthem. That pic was during the BLM moments...or should it be BLM (bowel) movements?

cheaters, kneelers, aholes

I'll watch some Cowboy Football though

Even if some of them Cowboys take a knee during the anthem? I guess I should clarify the all inclusive United States National Anthem?

I don’t get hung up on the political BS. I just enjoy watching a good baseball game.

For those interested, first pitch was at 1:10.

kinda agree

Unfortunately, the players are the ones who made it political. I was just trying to enjoy baseball games, they ruined it.

All players in both dugouts stood for God Bless America during the 7th inning stretch, in case you were wondering.

Oh so the God Bless America and National Anthem takes a 7th inning back seat for Morons who kneeled against her before the game so they could honor/ recognize POS criminals that died while committing crimes and I guess that makes it all okay

This is the new cap they introduced...

I’m gonna get two...
One to crap on, one to cover it up.

Verlander our for the season.

Quit paying attention to the idiots and it will go away.

Verlander our for the year with an elbow injury, so they’ll be less hot.

Wow, just heard it here.

During the opener Friday the Astros did kneel for BLM stuff, but when the anthem was played all players on the Astros and Mariners stood while it was played.

Lost JV. Welcome back to the Big League Dusty. James will get the nod for first pitch tomorrow evening. Has decent heat should be fine. Framber Valdez starts vs the Dodgers. Gets interesting after that.

Buzz?

That’s funny

Now that’s funny, and I’m an Astros fan.

That changes everything. Now I can support the gutless bastards.

Welcome back!

“If you can’t respect our national anthem, get the he-- out of the country,” Ditka said in an interview with TMZ Sports. “That’s the way I feel. Of course, I’m old fashioned, so I’m only going to say what I feel.”

FK 'em all!!

If you run from the police, then struggle when they're
trying to cuff and stuff you, they should have a free
hand to do whatever it takes to get you under control.
Act like you have a brain, and you'll likely cruise
through life with little interaction with law enforcement
officers. A good many of us already have

Chris Rock has a yoofloob video on how to not
get your a$$ kicked by the poe leece, but unfortunately
I'm unable to post it

JMHO- I don't watch games that these nearly-a-felons play.
I don't care to see any protests against law and order when
criminals get caught and lose their lives trying to escape

Unfortunately, they are hung up on political BS.

Your support only encourages them, & leads to more.

Baseball never gets interesting.

Personally, I hope they piss off more people all season & they go broke, forced to eat [censored] before they starve to death.

Done with them.

Atta boy Iron Mike tell it like it should be

I don't give 2 squirts about the cheating. I want my teams to cheat. It means they care enough and want to win.

The kneeling? Screw that, I'm out.

Its my understanding that Josh Reddick lives in the same subdivision as a THFer. If his mail ended up in your box, would you take it over and spit in his face?

"Josh Reddick Stadium, designed for kids with special needs, opens in Astros outfielder's hometown
Austin Laymance Updated 8:08 am CDT, Monday, July 23, 2018"

I'm hoping the new Corona spread in the Marlins forces cancellation of the season for all of them. Skrew all of them. Get them off TV. They can kneel in their own living rooms instead of in mine.

Including Josh Reddick?

"ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Astros outfielder Josh Reddick couldn't hold back tears Sunday morning as he scrolled through his phone, looking at pictures and videos that were sent to him from Saturday's grand opening of Josh Reddick Stadium in Effingham County, Ga.
Reddick donated $1 million to develop a fully accessible baseball field in his hometown for children with special needs. The complex features artificial turf and accessible dugouts, so those in wheelchairs can participate."

Did he kneel?

I'm sure there are more stories like this out there but that doesn't excuse the disgraceful action and the condoning of kneeling during the national anthem.

Great game. Bergman retakes the lead.

The rookie relief pitcher looked good, 3 outs with pitches.

Took him a little longer to get the next three outs but he prevailed.

Midget just hit one out.

Home run. Big sticks are out.

He just got another RBI. He's a decent player plus a patriot. flag-waver,. loyalist. nationalist. partisan. volunteer. good citizen.

Just keep justifying your patronage.

Funny Jimbo,
Don’t recall any Ranger threads lately.

Osuna is one Astro that I don't hold with.

No bottom of the ninth. Early to bed.

Verlander out for the season

Yesterday’s news Buzz. Today’s news is he may be back before the end of season.

Yep!

Did he kneel during the National Anthem....Nope, what part of neither team kneeled during the NA, do you not understand? Obviously they did not kneel in your living room.

afraid the season is already over

Let. Me. Go. Slow. For. You. Did.........He...........kneel?

During the National Anthem......No

Did I say anything about the national anthem?

I can't wait for pro baseball, pro football and pro basketball to crumble and die. Ask the Dixie Chicks what happens when you alienate your audience. Oh wait, they aren't even called that anymore.
