Opening Day2009

I'm 11 hours from where I grew up watching them, and I can barely see 50 games a year on tv here but I still pull for my beloved Astros every day.  I follow the hell out of them on the web too.


Also, last year and this year I've been following the Arkansas Razorbacks baseball team because a good friend of mine's kid is their cleanup hitter. 

Baseball Rocks!

Go Strohs!

The O's have sucked arse every season since '97 when they signed Albert Belle, owner of the annual 40-most-useless-home-runs-a-player-could-hit contest

Bj, the O's have been awful since I was a kid.  Or at least a kid with a memory. 

To put it in perspective, I'm 31 now. 

That is a whole lotta suck lol.

They ruled from early 60's thru '80 (were in series 3 years in a row'69-'71) had a down year, won series in '83...largely sucked until early 90's...5 good years in a row until post '97--they let Palmeiro and a couple good pitchers walk, and tried to replace them with Belle and Mike %%@#% Timlin.....NOT dissimilar to the Bambino curse in Boston
