Hurricane Ike didn't damage Minute Maid Park, but it still managed to ruin the Astros close to the season. It's a shame. I will probably always wonder if they could have pulled off the unthinkable and actually have made the playoffs after being so far back.

Amusing. The guy who wrote it is a (Please Use More Appropriate Word) IMO but amusing anyways.

I think it's cute we not only lost our home games but had to play in a totally neutral place that is in no way a hostile environment! Yay!

Still, they had their chance and came up short....even though they aren't eliminated yet, still. That 5 game losing streak killed us.

More importantly, our terrible month of June killed us. Stop waiting until August you douchebags!
