Wrong forum, wrong thread for nfl talk.


You should hesitate to take away their coping mechanisms so blindly. It's like stripping away their Jerry Jones Companion Doll.

You know, in their history the Rangers have been ONE STRIKE away from winning the World Series TWICE! The Astros NEVER have!

The worst. I don't recommend venturing to the politics forum, but you should see how he/she gets demolished over there.

this thread was so much more interesting 2 months ago. Are the maverick cubans really gonna put up the best fight?

With the Rangers 20 games back in the West and chests swelling at the thought of not being swept by the mediocre ChiSox, I've been wondering what Rangers fans are thinking about doing in October?

Month long camping trip to the wifi/tv-less Big Thicket? Study over the plans and specs of the new retractable roof stadium that'll smoke the unimportant Astros nearly two decade old, but World Series embossed, ballpark? Just gonna pop in that well-worn 2011 Rangers AL Championship Season DVD Collector Set, ejecting before being 1 strike away in Game Six?

Curious. TIA.




The season essentially ends this coming Thursday night. But until then, I'm sure most ranger fans strolled over to the Death Star tonight to see America's team run train on Houston. I'm talking about football, which not sure any Houston fan is aware of, and judging by the performance of that Houston team, can't blame them.



Just thought I'd note that Houston currently own scoreboard on Dallas in football as well

Let's play a game. What # will be higher. Daddy's win total on Aug 17 or Arlington's win total at the end of Sept?
well, just to revisit this nugget, on 8/17 the big boys were 78-46, in the midst of out bad 5 loss run. We gave the Arlingtonians every chance with that set of losses. But they are in the tank. As of now they are 64-69. Getting to 78 wins will be a dicey proposition.

It looks like Farmer was dead on it.

Well, its getting close to the end. Its magic number time. I know its still August, but when one team is really good and the other, yeah, well, frankly, sucks donkey balls at playing baseball, the end comes fast.

The Astros magic number over the Arlingtonians is already in single digits. Its down to 7. Yep, you read that right. 7. Your long summer nightmare will end in less than a week. Hang in there boys. Maybe next year will be better. All the new prospects you got from trading Pence, Minor and Lynn will provide much needed support at the ML level next year.

JV with his 3rd No-No. Just sharing because Rangers HOF Pudge Rodriguez caught his 2nd.

The magic number is 3. Congratulations to surviving to Labor Day!

22 games back. I wonder how high it will go? 25? 26? You guys are just another decent arm from competing next year.

I'd be happier if it did not occur until Thursday. I'll be a huge Arlington fan for the next couple of days.

Difference between us and them? They are huge fans of the Yankees right now. Anything to keep us from another WS.

Rangerettes are losing to NYY 3-0, B5. You boys are at a magic number of 1. Lose and it's get the golf clubs out and make a tee time. Win and you come back to fight another day and do the Astros a favor. What's it going to be? Go belly up or help your betters?

We will know in about an hour. I'm betting you go tits up.

And its over. Our little buddies up north are officially eliminated from the AL West. You still have a slim chance at a WC though. Ah, who am I kidding. You are 13 back there with 21 to play. Its just a matter of time.

And speaking of 21 games left, Farmer's bet was to see if you could beat the number of wins the big boys had by Aug. 17. Recall we were at 78 wins back on that date. You are at 68 wins with 21 to go. So you have to go 11-10 the rest of the way. I don't think you have it in you. Prove me wrong.

They gotten hot since this post. They're probably going to make it. Good for them. They're only 23 back when it could easily be creeping up to 30. Arlington has to enjoy the little things in life.

Astros have scored 32 runs in 9 turns, that includes the last seven innings two nights ago and the first two innings yesterday. Second in league history to guess who? The 2007 Rangers.

So lift up your chins Arlingtonians. You still have that going for you, which is nice.

I know Rangers fans don't know what a 100-win season looks like. But the Astros are two wins away from their 3rd straight 100 win season

That should help balance out the 416 losses from 2011-2014.

So how much success is necessary by the 'Stros in the next few seasons will it take for Ranger fan to admit that stretch of horrid seasons was worth going through?

The World Series trophy tips the scales way out of balance.

Man, some fellow Rangers fans actually post on this thread. You guys are a glutton for punishment. As a Ranger fan living in Houston, it sucks big time. I'm constantly surrounded by a horde of johnny-come-lately Astros fans. They are such a proud bunch.
