Feast and Famine

Ah, yes the Astros for the secnond year in a row have captured the wild card spot in the baseball playoffs. After being written off early in the season with a 15-30 start this is an outstanding end to the season. There was even a "tombstone" telling of the demise of the Astros before the season was half over. They made it to the league championship last year, losing to St.Louis who went on to lose the World Series. I'm hopeful it will be better this year. Next stop Atlanta...

On the other hand, we have the Houston Texans. From bad to bad to bad. They actually looked better Sunday, though they still lost. The play calling was better and they held their own against the Bengals for most of the game. There was one questionable call by the officials that ruined the game for the Texans. Even the announcers were stunned by the call. Oh well, I guess the real Texans are somewhere. We just cant find them.

So we have the Feast of the Houston Astros to the Famine of the Houston Texans. Go Astros! Please...
