In case you missed it, the Astros won tonight & go on to the World Series Big Grin Astros will face the Chicago White Sox & Clemens will be pitching the first game.

Did you know that this is the FIRST time a Texas team has been in the World Series? I'm so accustomed to rooting for the Yankees I didn't even realize that piece of trivia.

ummmmm, I have a feeling that the Astros got there because of two former Yankees Wink

I hope you get a chance to watch the series!

CONGRATS to the Houston Astros!! I've always been a "National League" gal, rooting for the Mets (oh well, next year Wink , and anyone who plays the Yankees!! I've never been a Yankees fan, although I had been to Yankee stadium years ago, taking the subway, which was an experience.

I'm a big sports fan and I think it's really great that a team from Texas is in the World Series for the first time. That's really great! Last year I didn't get the WS on my channels and so I hope that changes this year. I mean REALLY, it's the WORLD Series!

Frowner It doesn't look good for the Astros. 2-0, those WhiteSox are pretty good. It will take a miracle for the Astros to come back. It was awesome making it to the World Series, winning it is another thing.

In the words of this NY Mets fan....DON'T GIVE UP. I hope the Astros rally, and come back to take the series. Nothing against the Sox, BUT, I'm a National League fan.

Time will tell...

yayyyyyyyy!!!!. The white sox won!!!!. They went 88 years without winning so, it's really awesome that they won last night. Their fans were probably just as happy as I, and all the other Red Sox fans were last year. Woo-hoo!! Big Grin

Sorry! I meant to get back to this before now. It's okay...it's not like the Sox did a cha-cha 'round the bases in each game. Both teams seemed evenly matched but as a fan I would have enjoyed seeing it go all the way.

Next year maybe it will be the Astros vs the Yankees Razzer That way I'll be in a win:win situation Wink

I think I'll just post here in the friendly baseball thread for a while.

Glenda, what can I say, I feel your pain. 4 Superbowls for us, 4 losses. I'm happy for you that your team got there. It's a nice feeling to be in the top 2 but losing still hurts.
