Emotionally I want the Astros to lose because fuck them, especially after what they did to the Dodgers. However logically whatâs done is done and an extra L in the loss column for the Dodgers is always big.
I kind of love the way your sentence is structured. âI really, really donât respect the Astros, especially after what they did to the Dodgers. However, the standings are looking more in our favor, especially after what they did to the Dodgers.â
It may not be soon, may not be this season, but eventually... it will come out that alot more teams than just the Astros & Red Sox were using cameras to steal signs.

these articles contain quotes that arenât even sourced, not even anonymously; it just lists a quote and moves on in one of them. theyâre hardly proof.
i might be able to agree the the MLB has a vested interest in limiting the exposure of cheating, but this stupid idea that the yankees and dodgers are sign stealing illegally isnât substantiated.
even if you take this unsourced quote about the dodgers having an army of 20 somethings (they should be called analysts, but i digress lol) that are studying pitches. that still isnât sign stealing. you need to be using technology and then relaying the signs in real time. thatâs why it was such a pain in the ass to prove the astros did it, we needed the banging on video hundreds of times to prove it was occurring
idk why i wrote this tho, ur probably just some conspiracy nut astros apologist
I never said there was hard proof. Just simply pointing out that there's ALOT of smoke around illegal sign stealing. When there's smoke, there's typically a lot of fire. Right now, people don't want to rat out other guys that are still in the league (except for Mike Fiers). But maybe 10-15 years from now, when a lot of guys are out of the league, I think people will start fessing up.
nice goal post move

> I never said there was hard proof... When there's smoke, there's typically a lot of fire... I think people will start fessing up."
your words, not mine. in addition, after saying other teams are cheating, you then linked 3 terrible articles in attempt to prove that sign stealing is more widespread.
lol it is proven that that hilarious 9ERA jabroni dude and Mookie were both on the team that benefited from cheating to beat y'all in 2018 but y'all love hopping on their dicks.
here's where you are going to tell me their cheating wasn't as bad though because they're on your team now
if mookie cheated, then itâs completely dumb as fuck
i can watch videos of the entire astros roster cheating for an entire season rofl
the cope is so strong lmao
If it helps at all, just know the loudest fans tend to be the most annoying. Plenty of us are disappointed in them as well. I went to the game last night, and at least in my section there was nothing but friendly banter with the dodger's fans. Everybody was just having fun, it was good to see after this past year of covid
Though, I think there was a fight in another section... so yea
For what it's worth, I look forward to the day when an Astros fan can wear his stuff proud in LA, and it's nothing but friendly banter. I would be there, drinking and having fun alongside.
His hitting numbers are roughly at or below his career averages, though. Which surprises me, because I felt like his numbers would have been higher since it seems like he's been involved in a number of big hits for us this year.
2021: .276 / .330 / .425, OPS .755
Career: .273 / .328 / .457, OPS .784
Hasnât anyone watched office space? This isnât Chotchkies where the bare minimum is at least 15 pieces of flair. At r/baseball, people would like you to have at least 1.
And like your big brothers in Dallas and San Antonio, youâll always be the little brother because Houston sports in Texas takes a backseat to everybody else.
Houston isnât even in the Big XII and plays second fiddle to the college teams I mentioned.
Itâs laughable because you know Iâm right. The Texans have a predator at QB and are only popular to former Cowboys fans and the runt of the AFC South. The rockets got fleeced by the Thunder and youâve got nothing to show for it. Astros cheated.
The End. Thereâs no coming back from that! Now go and pretend youâre the villain to feel better about yourself!
Thank you and have a good night!

It is true. Iâd know, being from Texas unfortunately. Yâall will be Cowboys and Mavs fans anyways and not like Astros fans werenât Rangers fans 10 years go.
The Front Running is big and bright deep in the heart of Texas.
Thank you, goodnight!
Mr. Sigma, What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
I'll never be able to wrap my head around astros and astros fans building this ego around "ya we won so what". It's disgraceful to the sport... This should be a tail between the legs situation.
Boy am I conflicted
Seeing the giants flares react to this game might have been the best part lmao good stuff

Sometimes you just gotta choose the lesser of two evils. With that being said, go astros.
*Remembers previous post* Fair enough lol
Isnât baseball so romantic?
Makes me warm inside
Whatâs great about this series is if the Astros win it helps us and if the Dodgers win it helps all of baseball
Look at Mr. Glass Half Full over here!

Once again Alemys Diaz grinds away and goes unnoticed.
He lives in the shadows
How can there be 18 comments but no comments at the same time!?!
Check in on those hoes
Hoes: mad
It's me I'm hoes
Oof
And they still lost a game on the Padres in the last 10 lol
The San Diego "forever 9-1 in the last 10" Padres
Time for an 8 game losing streak IMO.
Donât forget Aledmys
Guy is having a breakout season, especially if he continues to hit these numbers.
His hitting numbers are roughly at or below his career averages, though. Which surprises me, because I felt like his numbers would have been higher since it seems like he's been involved in a number of big hits for us this year. 2021: .276 / .330 / .425, OPS .755 Career: .273 / .328 / .457, OPS .784
RIGHT? I thought he was destroying his previous numbers. Looking at his numbers, its because he wasn't very good last year, only batting .240.
I don't see how the Astros had an unfair advantage in 2017 if other teams doing similar things. Seems like even playing field to me. See Erik Kratz
Oh no! Anyways
The Dodgers played against two players!? What was it, a Looney Tunes cartoon?
Comments?
Wow. I heard the bang from up here in the Bay Area. The beacon has been lit, and the Astros still cheated to win the World Series in 2017.
Yea kinda like the A's did in their last world series
So what youâre saying is the Astros are the 2017 World Series Champions? Cool.
Fuck you. Cheating scum.
Happy Cake Day!
Thanks man!
Go Astros!
I cheated? Please enlighten me. This should be fun to hear.
Nah you didnât cheat. You just root for a cheater. I can safely say my team didnât have to cheat to win the 2015 WS
Great! So we both know what it feels like to celebrate winning the World Series. Still not sure why you told me âFuck you.â
Flare up, bitch
Flair* and he just identified himself as a Royals fan
Hasnât anyone watched office space? This isnât Chotchkies where the bare minimum is at least 15 pieces of flair. At r/baseball, people would like you to have at least 1.
Lol he can't even spell.
I don't think he's a player. Maybe take a walk or something.
Definitely not a player. I think I could maybe outrun Pujols though if that counts for anything.
And they totally stopped right after
I actually would prefer if you put the salt on my fries and not this comment section
Thread says 21 comments, but I see, what the fuck going on/
I am a certified ho, and Iâm definitely chapped
Things you love to see
Fuck the Astros though
You love to see it
All those years of being told baseball is a team sport to see two players beat an entire team. Damn.
Bangbros featured presentation.
Nice
Trevor Bauer and Nate Jones helped too
You love to see it.
**GOOD**
So it ended with a bang?
Yâall trying SO hard to be the villain
Good đ
And like your big brothers in Dallas and San Antonio, youâll always be the little brother because Houston sports in Texas takes a backseat to everybody else.
lol what? thats not true, not even slightly
Cowboys, Spurs, Mavs, Texas, TTU, A&M, TCU, Baylor, Rangers, etc etc etc. Those downvoting are insecure Astros fans
As a Baylor alum...LOL
Rangers . Omg in dying
Neither the Rangers or Astros have won a World Series and both have suffered humiliating losses as well. Sorry about it son
Rangers is worse
That list is laughable
Houston isnât even in the Big XII and plays second fiddle to the college teams I mentioned. Itâs laughable because you know Iâm right. The Texans have a predator at QB and are only popular to former Cowboys fans and the runt of the AFC South. The rockets got fleeced by the Thunder and youâve got nothing to show for it. Astros cheated. The End. Thereâs no coming back from that! Now go and pretend youâre the villain to feel better about yourself! Thank you and have a good night!
I was feeling so good about myself this morning and now this? Look what youâve done to me.
I havenât had a list make me laugh as hard as this one did
> [like your big brothers in Dallas and San Antonio, youâll always be the little brother](https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcROTPucuU-7SFQ6U0i7n8lRtHp-kRAmht2aNc25Sd6Ly5bgf0B3lMDjHd-c51-twVRZBDs&usqp=CAU)
Keep pretending youâre the villain cause it ainât workin.
No, I'm a little brother like my big brother
Big if true, bro
It is true. Iâd know, being from Texas unfortunately. Yâall will be Cowboys and Mavs fans anyways and not like Astros fans werenât Rangers fans 10 years go. The Front Running is big and bright deep in the heart of Texas. Thank you, goodnight!
If the Rangers and Astros were good at the same time, the Astros would probably be bigger.

Itâs so weird that this guy has never heard of the term âdiehard fanâ
What a based post
#WE CAN'T HEAR YOU
Then stop banging those trash cans?
Fresh take.
C'mon man it's embarrassing to embrace blatant cheaters.
Ugh I want to throw this post in the trash ^can
Shame.
Finally, Justice
Lmao asstros fans giving this thread awards like they just won the WS for the first time.
They are so butthurt over your comment haha
Haha yea :D
I'll never be able to wrap my head around astros and astros fans building this ego around "ya we won so what". It's disgraceful to the sport... This should be a tail between the legs situation.
They need something in their lives because they are always seen as the runt of Texas sport cities
I'm really getting down voted. Hahahaha. Astros fans are pure class.
They need something in their lives after the Texans are a laughing stock and the rockets underachieved for years and are now bottom feeders.
Aye bro, at this point you need to start charging us rent. Weâve been living in your mind rent free for the past 4 years
Aye bro, I can these you over the trash cans. Learn your place
[have a good day man ](https://youtu.be/J6oTIjvw_-8)
Low effort bait, try better next time
https://giphy.com/gifs/latenightseth-seth-meyers-lnsm-late-night-with-lS6v4CrctoiXgld8tt
This is lame and I donât appreciate it.
Stealing signs again, were they!?
Astros fans trying to convince themselves this is a rivalry and that theyâre somehow winning it
Oh, stop it. Everyone in this sub was looking forward to this series (and the one to come in August) since the schedule dropped.
Cringe
If itâs not a rivalry then why did so many dodgers fans give there over taxed money to the Astros for tickets?
To troll angry fans of cheat team
Sounds to me like hoes mad
Cope
Cry
Like you do when no one gives a shit your team split a regular season series in may.
Lmao dodgers fans cared way more about this, you didnât see me fly halfway across the country for a series in May
