2018 Houston Astros Season Thread
listening to the most recent astros podcast with Lunhow. He basically said that Ted will be brought up at some point this season. Also he didn't rule out him being one of the 25 on the playoff roster.

What series do you recommend?
full disclosure - I picked up the show at the start of season 3 and watched the entirety from then on. Have not seen the first two seasons -not on Netflix . I can say from season 3 to the end that it's in my top five series ever.

2018 Houston Astros Season Thread
no problem with giving Altuve a day off, just had a problem with it last night. We were facing easily the best starter we will see in this series or the next against the Royals. Not to mention Jose is already getting Thursday off. Take a day off against a chump, not the best we will see over the next six games. Also would have liked to have seen Kemp bunt Reddick over, THEN use Altuve with RISP.

How Often Do You Cross the Mexican Border?
about four times a year to Mexico City and or Monterey for business. Glad I got to go to Acuna before it was ruined - Ma Crosby's for fishbowl beers and froglegs. We walked down the street to the El Toro Bar (which was missing part of its roof). Buddy put a $100bill on the bar and told the bar keep to pay for everyone's drinks, gave another $100 to the mariachi band and told them to keep playing. The bartender next door closed his bar and came over and drank with us...he was also a town doctor. I vaguely remember ending up at the The Hunter club or some such place. My bullshit was working great that night - every chick in that place was mine for the taking.....

Jason Isbell, Sturgill Simpson, Chris Stapleton, and Other Good Stuff
I'll be there if I can get the entire group (Eagles fans - I am as well, but really want to see Chris ) to stop pre-gaming and get to the show. I wonder how abbreviated his set will be? Eagles playing someiting 27 songs on this tour.

Cape Cod, Nantucket, Martha's Vineyard
go to Cape Cod league games - Chatham has the best field IMO. You can catch multiple games a day as all the fields are close together on the mid cape. Wellfleet Drive-in movie is pretty fun. You can rent bikes and ride the old train route Whale watching at Provincetown as already mentioned. Honestly I don't remember one meal while we were on the Cape. I do remember there was all kinds of good beer - spent lots of time sitting on the deck drinking in the nice weather. Weekend traffic is horrible - if you plan anything to do that requires a longer trip make it really early.

I'm going in the evening because I was under the impression the Sunday Supper menu only started at 5:00. Is that not true?- Houston Restaurants You Miss The Most
Mama's Cafe - still can't understand why that placed closed down. The Railhead Dong Ting - high priced Chinese in a fabulous setting right near Brennan's Dirty's La Mora Molina's on Buffalo Speedway Samperi's Import Co. (Almeda Mall) - best sandwich ever made.- Influencers and travel demands
there are a lot of attorneys looking for the hidden gems in San Angelo. ....you can't eat at BW3's every night.- New Houston Restaurant Recommendations
thanks for this tip. Sounds like the perfect way to wind down a Father's Day. Booked a reservations for this Sunday.- $646 Million divorce decree (Russion oligarch)
He forgot to fill out the "For" section. How will he ever remember what this was for when his year-end taxes are due? Harold also was the guy in 2014 who monetized all his hedges because the price of oil was going up, not down.- $646 Million divorce decree (Russion oligarch)
nice camel......hair- Miss Texas contest - who you got?

ya when we were young we all said we would opt out, if given the chance. Now, not so much- Hey Oil Barons.......
Sandridge board just pushed all their chips on the table against Icahn.

recently had drinks at the rooftop at The Thompson. Nice spot where all the beautiful people appear to congregate. Everyone tells me that Rolf and Daughters is the place to eat but we could not get a reservation. Ending up eating in the 12 South area at Urban Grub. Had a nice oyster bar, and the food was fine. The bar was jammed. This was Vandy graduation weekend so the entire town was jammed. There are free concerts and food trucks in Centennial Park during Friday and Saturdays in June. Not a bad spot to find some shade, grab some grub and a beer, and listen to live music https://musicianscornernashville.com/- Colorado Baker Wins
actually you would be the asshole in that scenario.- Controversial Calls, Shitty Umps, Weird Plays, etc...
this is about as bad as it gets....wait for the second pitch.- 2018 Houston Astros Season Thread
agree completely. I think Jake should only be called upon as a 9th inning defensive replacement. I think right now you can make a strong argument that he is the worst offensive player in MLB (not counting pitchers), although Chris Davis is trying like hell to get in the conversation.- 2018 Houston Astros Season Thread
