I just know there was one point where I rooted for both teams. I feel like a lot of people who grew up in Austin and/or SA in their late 20s and early 30s would say the same thing. I grew up rooting for Biggio and Bagwell just like I grew up rooting for Juan Gonzalez and Pudge. My main point is this entire thread is stupid. There is no rivalry between these teams. We’ve been in the same division for 7 years. I’d probably like the Astros if they were still in the NL. 

But I know idiots on both sides of this want to force this rivalry into existence. Neither team has any real history so we have to fabricate a forced rivalry.

I’m amazed at how you try to minimize winning a World Series like it’s so easy yet the rangers haven’t done it. Makes sense.

Well it would’ve been easy if Ron Washington made the defensive replacement that he made 90% of the year. God damnit lol. I think he was smoking a cig somewhere and forgot.

Pretty aggy to toss up the what if’s. Shoulda coulda woulda aggy. Keep waving the “we lead the head to head” flag though.

Don’t y’all losers have anything better to do on a Saturday than argue who is or isn’t aggy?

Astros fan I know was bragging just a few years back, during a season when there was NOTHING to crow about, how many HOME RUNS the Astros hit that season. LOL. That's Astrocomical.

If Ranger fans are aggy, like you say, they would claim the Astros' WS as their own.

And you're the same guy who posts "Asstros."  Ironic.

Look, y'all enjoy being within 7 games of Houston for a minute.  Thump your chests and talk your shit.  Have a little pride in your third place club.

But you know as well as we do that you're gonna run out of innings and the Astros are gonna win the division again.

Keep losing and it'll be closer than 7 games

Don’t y’all losers have anything better to do on a Saturday than argue who is or isn’t aggy?

The answer to this question is no.

Thank you for this post.  I'm serious.

We have a winning record against you guys all time, and it isn’t even remotely close. The day you guys shrink that gap is the day you’re allowed to call us aggy. Until then, calling us aggy would be giving aggy WAY too much credit. The difference in our franchise is 1 game 7, and about 40 games head to head. Same amount of World Series appearances, 7 division titles to 9. Both teams have an all time winning percentage of just barely above .450. The only real difference is one game 7 in your favor, and a ton of head to head games in our favor. Let’s stop pretending like one franchise is so inferior to the other, because it just isn’t. Hell, let’s stop pretending like this is even a rivalry lol. We have no history together. We’ve been in the same division for 7 years. During that time, both teams have been good together for about 3 of those years. During that time we’ve either owned the Astros when we’ve had even teams, or we’re .500 against them with an inferior team on paper. So regardless of how y’all want to do this “no you’re aggy, no you’re aggy” dick measuring contest, it still doesn’t change the fact that our franchises have had a pretty similar trajectory over the course of our existences. Except for the 1 game 7 against the dodgers, and the 30 or 40 plus games that we lead this head to head series by.

This entire thread is stupid this year lol. We aren’t a real rivalry. The Astros are the better team on paper, and should be better. They were the World Series favorite coming into the year. We were rebuilding. Yet here we are, 6-6 against each other. 

Being aggy has zero to do with W-L records.  Aggy is a state of mind.

How about having a nickname for every player on the team?

Can we all agree that these two behind the plate are completely aggy?

Holy shit. For a fan base that accuses the other of caring about run differential, this is fucking gold. Gold, Jerry! 

 

Astros have 2 more games than the Rangers this week, let's see how that play out.

Unless this is a photo of actual astronauts watching from space...

Lotta money to pay for a view that's basically this:

People do not give one pinch of shit about the Silver Boot.  Did you hang banners up around the stadium over it?

I do think it's irony on a base level but it's a hoot that an ex-Astro helped keep the Rangers from winning a world series while an ex-Ranger absolutely hooked the Astros the fuck up in their World Series win.

^^^ That's the perfect synopsis of the Ranger fans in this thread a couple of weeks ago: "We're gonna catch the Astros, we're gonna catch 'em, here we come, only four games back, oh no we suck again."

Does CJ really need to talk about home run distances for two fucking innings? Let it go.

Lol. 5-2 sounds a lot better than a 0-5 week.

Y’all should feel blessed you didn’t play 7.

Refusing to use the actual name. Also aggy.

Kinda like:

josh Hamilton- hambone

nelson Cruz- nelly

colby lewis- the snake

ron washington- powder nose

or moose antler or deer antler hands or whatever that gay shit and t-shirt was y’all made. 

Im sure y’all had more player nicknames than that but you high society franchise fans would never do that.

The Astros should return the favor and send the Giants a mural of the 2017 World Series celebration to put in the visitors clubhouse for the Dodgers to see.

Giants win on Rangers field for their first WS in 56 years

Astros win on Dodgers field for their first WS in ever (in 56th season of play)

Never seen a better embodiment of that old saying "When you point the finger at someone, you have three fingers pointing back at yourself."  Congrats.

Don't forget The Big Chill (Mazara), Rougie (Odor), and The Condor (Ronald Guzman even though Chris Sale, who is actually good at baseball, already had it).

You turds enjoying 4th place?

I'll buy that off them if they don't need it anymore. The Rangers don't have any more trips to Houston this season do they?

Thanks for shutting out the Yankees shiny shirts.

Does anyone on the Rangers have as many RBI’s in a full season as Yordan does in half of one?

I really don't care which forum it's in...that's some mighty good bull. 

It’s a good thing the Rangers are building Minute Maid 2.0 in Arlington.

Yeah man their main main Roughie Odor has 81 in 135 games played while that slacker Cuban only has 76 in 78 games played.

Take that!
