Yeah yeah yeah ......keep telling yourself that.
How does a team recover from being one strike away from the World Series and being crushed just like Pujols did that Lidge fastball? You have the former president, Nolan Ryan and 40K+ going nuts thinking your finally over the hump after 45 years and with one swing of the bat......well you know the rest
The Astros have a history of folding including last year when they were up 3-2 going to St. Louis and had Oswalt and Clemons to pitch the 2 games. How did that turn out for them? Red Sox fold after the Buckner gaf. Cards fold after Derkeingers call. Cubs fold after Barkman. Houston folded in 1980.
Theres a history of teams folding after something like this happens to them. If Houston comes back and wins they will have deserved it big time.
