Win the world series and Houston fans are rewarded by spending opening day on the road at Daddy's house.

Silver boot ends in July this year
Kind of ironic that the phrase "The defending World Series Champions are opening the season at The Ballpark in Arlington" is something you cannot take pleasure in._lefraud_ said:

Well that Indians team from the pic won the Pennant, so we can hope!AstroAggie15 said:
Rangers fans discussing the 2018 season
You're right. World Champs get the best chance to start 4-0._lefraud_ said:

Wager $25 that the Rangers split (at worst)? And if they get swept, I'll send you $50?
I'll take up to 4 different wagers for anyone interested...

I feel bad for Rangers fan. The team is just mediocre enough that fans are delusional about the playoffs.
At least when the Astros sucked, there was no disguising it.
For the Rangers, fans think they are Opening Day drunk, thinking they are taking home a 7, but really ending up with a 2.

Damn the Rangers fckin suck.
Let's see...They had a fire sale last year and made multiple low budget crappy insignificant signings this year.
Sure looks like a tank job to me.
Legit laughed at "asstrolls"
Glad to see y'all are able to come up with new material despite having a fkn horrible team and absolutely no chance at anything resembling hope this season.
And what material did you have in 2013 when you finished 45 games out of first place?

So much this. They're not tanking, but they're not doing a damn thing to compete. They're locking in to 72-82 wins a year for the next several years.
Or post 2006 Astros model. We've been there. We know how terrible mediocrity is. There is no payoff in the end.mazag08 said:Farmer1906 said:agproducer said:

Most teams watched the Astros take a downtrodden club filled with spares to the World Series and decided to attempt to copy the model. The Rangers laughed and stuck with their Seattle Mariners model.
