Astros Fever!
Posted by enrico | Under Sports Wednesday Oct 19, 2005We’re going to the world series!! Woohoo!! This is awesome! After a lifetime of being an Astros fan and so many years of disappointment (such as taking bets to see how many games the Astros would lose to the Braves in the 1st postseason series, when they even got to the postseason), this is a sweet day. It would have been great to have won at home on Monday, but stuffing a crushing loss to St. Louis in their own house has its own share of goodness, too. I said in an earlier post that I didn’t think the Astros would ever get past the Cards, but after the 18-inning division win, I thought the chance was there. As it turns out, chance was nothing — the Astros had complete control of this series except for game 1.
Win or lose the World Series, the Astros are already champions for me.
