He was thrown out at 3rd on a bunt, do they bunt there if he was called out as they should have?


Maybe they swing away and hit a homer? What's your point?

While YOU may not see the Trashtros asterisk, the rest of us fans see it. No one respects their championship. It's literally why any athlete plays the game. To win and earn respect. If you cheat, you've just defrauded the whole process.

I'll never understand why every person involved wasn't banned for life from the game. MLB has no backbone when it needs it.

The Astros cheated EVERYONE. It's like the entire season was for absolute nothing.

They turned that year into a complete waste of everyone's fricking time.
Orta never scored.

The Cards imploded because they were mentally weak.

The Royals did not cheat. There is no asterisk.

You are guaranteed one habeas petition after a death sentence. To file a second habeas requires jumping through a lot of hurdles that make it next to impossible to actually get it heard.
To get around this - defense attorneys will file what amounts to a second habeas but claim it is a Federal Rule of Civil Procedure Rule 60(b) Motion attacking the original habeas. In this case, the claim is that evidence unknown at the time of the original habeas is now known and impacts the sentence.
The district court dismissed the claim - finding that the petition was really a second habeas. The Court of Appeals found that it could possibly be a FRCP 60(b) motion and should go back down to the district court - either to be heard on the merits or to determine definitively whether it is a second habeas.

Or, to put it more bluntly - the defense threw a hail mary and their prayers were answered


I'd be careful taking legal advice from a QB who couldn't fully knock out Jim Rome. ??

With that said, if you look at any discussions about the hypothetical divisions after expansion, a lot of them have an AL South of Stros, Rangers, Rockies, and Royals

Those are 2 of the worst franchises so I’d like our odds playing in that


The Astros have exactly 2 World Series championships since the Royals franchise started in 1969. The Royals also have 2 WS titles. Neither of our rings have an asterisk next to it.

The Astros franchise is trash. Pun intended.

Your tears will be delicious if you join our division in realignment.

Pay off your smallest debt. Roll that payment to the next smallest debt. Rinse and repeat.

Snowball, snowball, snowball. It absolutely works and gives you a great feeling of accomplishment every time a debt is paid. It will motivate you.
I added a bit more. Only a couple thousand shares total for me, tho.

I've been in this so long and could have had a bigger position, but didn't want to get in over my head.

I don't think Dix crossed the plane. But, oh well. Sigh.

Hate to sidetrack the thread, but someone mentioned Merle.

Anyone here ever know Robert Edrington aka Bobby Wayne aka Bobby Wayne Edrington? He was a friend/coworker of mine back in the early 2000s, who has sadly passed on. He was a former member of The Strangers with Merle.

He had some great stories from the music business.
