the astros/cardinals debacle
Would anyone like to explain this extremely late-season Astros run for the playoffs to me? Because even the resident Astros fan of the bunch of us certainly long-ago wrote off the team for this season. They hadn't been above .500 in months; now they've won 9 straight and are only 1 game back from the previously ever-winning Cards.
I guess I should be used to this by now, though... two years ago, the 'Stros made a September run and made it to the playoffs. Last year, the Houston Chronicle had given a big RIP headstone to the team on the sports page by the end of May, when they had started 15-30, and they ended up in the World Series for the first time ever.
Why do I always root for crazy teams that constantly leave you with that intense pressure feeling in your chest?
