All I want for Christmas is for my team to keep their championship. Were the Leinart-Bush Trojans the last team that had its championship vacated resulting from an investigation?Yeah but that’s college.

Guys, it’s time to come to terms with Santa Claus not being real and the fact that the Astros aren’t run by angels. Do What? Santa is real!

Were the Leinart-Bush Trojans the last team that had its championship vacated resulting from an investigation? He said “Bush Trojans.” I remember the Senate hearings on TV ratings when Ernest Hollings called them “Buffcoat and Beaver”
so Mike Judge in the next episode had Mr. Anderson call ‘em Buffcoat and Beaver

From catching a sign in the OF, relaying that to a dugout member, the team mate mentally registering it, then banging on a object, to the batter hearing it, understanding it, and responding quick enough to a hit a 90-100 mph pitch? Seems the process of using this information would be tougher than the batter just straight up playing it and watching the pitch. This is why I say our road record for 2017 was better than our home record. Actively trying to cheat was more a hinderance than help due to what you stated above.

President Trump started the rumors about him breaking the law and created the constitutional crisis and impeachment process in this country...so he could get inside the heads of the Democrats. That I actually could believe. I actually think that a lot of the stupid things Trump says and does is done purposely for attention, good or bad. No such thing as bad publicity.

One of them pulled a gun on the other Sunday in Keltys. My uncle that pulled the gun went and told the police today that I threatened him. I told the cop that he had to be kidding me. My uncles are not much older than I. This has been one crazy week. I told the cop that half of the force knows me. Ask around, I do not threaten people. I am a hug it out type of guy.

The A's could have hit the drums in a special code for curve, and/or change up. Very stealthy who would know with their history of drums in CF.

Mike Fiers is a former Astro, but keep in mind that Evan Drellich is a former Houston Chronicle employee. That’s been kind of under the radar.

So basically the team would have been better off if the geeks who dreamed up this idea would have just left the players alone and let them use their natural ability to play baseball. Absolutely possible. Think about being in the batters box and you know that someone will give you a signal on what pitch is coming. So you wait, and wait, and wait, and you're only thought is "Where is the signal?" It never comes because the catcher put up multiple signs and it couldn't be dechipered quick enough. Now the batter has less time to size up his opponent. The next pitch the batter may have his head in the game not worrying about the signal, but right before the pitch comes, he hears it. He now has to make a quick decision of "do I stick with my own plan?" or "do I take the signal?" But that's just my theory The bats being inconsistent at home during the 2018 season makes sense for the first time in light of this analysis
