ESPN Radio 1000 had interviewed one of the Astros after the world series and they said they were just happy to get as far as they did. After starting off from a 15-30 start and then going the distance all the way to their first world series, they were just happy to get that far. Then one of the guys on ESPN asked how did the team feel about the loss to the cardinals, Lidge giving up the homer to Pujols? One of the Astros replied "we were pretty angry about it, but we knew the cardinals were gonna be a tough team to put away that quick. But when we got on the plane headed to St. Louis we played a joke on Lidge. As the plane started to undergo turbulence coach got on the P.A. system and said" " We are 30 minutes away from St. Louis. Please fasten your seatbelts do to large amounts of turbulence. And as you look out your window slightly to your left you can see the ball pujols hit off of Lidge floating near by"

Just a thought. What would it be like if Damon was on the white sox . If we were NOT ABLE to pick up Pauly and we let Everett go. How would the team be if we got Damon? he has speed, great single/double hitter, and can also hit the long ball and can play small ball. We can place him in right and Jermaine can play first, with Frank at DH. I think are team can hold a even larger threat with stealing bases and bunts. The outfield would be great! Although i dont want pauly to leave i would sure love to see Damon on the team. Although this is probably unlikely...its just a thought.

QUOTE(Gooch#1fan @ Oct 28, 2005 -> 06:26 PM) Let me just say this as my first reply... We do not need Carl Everett. He comes up big like every 40 games, he swings at every pitch, if we need him for an emergency defensive wise he's horrible, he's not a club house cancer... but he almost never comes threw in the clutch. He had some great times with us but every time i think of everett now its thinking of a terrible at bat.. going down swinging at every pitch in the dirt. he would be a great bench power hitter. I'll miss his homerun swings. but we dont really need him. :headshake
