You are the worst kind of smug, a-hole fan. About as bad as...well if you've never set foot in an (insert school name) classroom, you don't deserve to be called a fan.

Btw, frick the cubs.

Drayton is the main reason the Astros are so bad. He made all the decisions in regards to everything. He believed the Astros where still relevant and could compete even when they where clearly out of it. He believed in reloading, not rebuilding. He raided the minors to get overpriced, over the hill free agents to get these pieces he believed we needed to win. I reality he sold the team with the minor leagues in shambles, no clear direction for the team. He called all the shots and the GM and all those under him where just yes men. Drayton is the reason we are at the spot we are in now. Jim Crane is not a fault.
well said. Drayton simply mortgaged the future for one last run and crapped out, leaving the entire franchise in shambles as he sold it. And I think crane is rebuilding the right way. Slow and kinda painful, but right.

It pains me to see the state of this franchise. Drayton fricked the teasm over and sold them and made off with tons of cash. He knew shite about baseball. Thank god the Astros have a clear direction now. It's gonna be a painful 3-4 season coming up but I know we will rise yet again.

I grew up on Racine, on the north side, 5-6 blocks from Wrigley.

Im neither smug, nor an a-hole. If you read the whole thread, youd see I was flaming the dick who said we'd take the crown of worst team in baseball back soon.
Well if thats how you really feel go cheer for another team.
Things are different now. The Tribune is no longer using the team as its cash cow.
We as fans should demand excellence, not wallow in the past.
The lovable loser bullshite is how the Tribune co got away with putting a shitty product on the field for so many years.
