1 and 3. And if the accounts are accurate, I hope they're heavy fines/draft pick losses.
Probably many won't agree, but it sounds like to me (if the accounts are true) that we heavily cheated during the regular season. We probably would have won anyways because we were very good, but we still cheated. I don't want to root for cheaters, and the only way to right a wrong is to feel the punishment.
It doesn't matter if others cheated too. Punish them severely as well. Let's clean this shit up right now.

If you cheat, you cheat. If you win by cheating, what’s done is done. The history cannot or should not be changed.
However, if you’re the Astros and were busted for the most part, it’s time to man up and accept the punishment. If other people cheat, that’s on them, and they should also be punished by MLB.
Finally, enough with the jabs on Bonds, Clemens, Pettitte, etc. for cheating when our own team does it too.

If you feel a combination should occur, please explain below. Should happen?- #1 Will happen?- #1 & 3. COB and his media lackeys have a hard on for us, and will slap us good. Same culprits will realize a muntiny and exodus of fans if bans, asteriks, or title stripping is taken, |

I should’ve removed the “strip the ‘17 title” option. None of us are picking that one. That would be a ridiculous outcome.

I agree with Mom..........None of the above. But, i had rather be fined and lose picks than to see Hinch and Luhnow suspended.

Same culprits will realize a muntiny and exodus of fans if bans, asteriks, or title stripping is taken, This line of reasoning seems to be native to Astros fans, and is one of the more ridiculous things in sports. The Astros have become a very, very popular team over the last few years and have brought many fans to the game (and much money). If you believe the Commissioner of the game would want to do anything to compromise that, then you don't understand business. To sum up: "Dey tuk are jorbs!" = ridiculous. |

I want to hear from you with a 100% straight face and honesty that there is not or never has been a coastal bias in MLB via COB, and associated media. Want you to go on record for that. |

So, now it's a "coastal bias"? Just a few inches above this post, you called it "COB and his media lackeys have a hard on for us". Which is it? Do the COB and media lackeys root for the coastal teams, or do they have an agenda to destroy the Astros for some nefarious reason? |

Greenmeister, not as much as an agenda or plan to the destroy the Astros, or any other mid-America team, as much as these parties giving nudges or other advantage to the Yankees, BoSox, Giants, and Dodgers of the world. OTOH, these SOB's are opportunist, and TrashCangate has given them fresh meat like pirahnnas in the water. BTW, are you hearing any universal outrage (like we rec'd) concerning the BoSox who not only employed our alleged techniques, but also were previously slapped for the Apple Watch fiasco? Strangely, this story has all the sudden slipped to page 2. /s |

1. They ain't gonna take the WS trophy away.
2. There IS a coastal media bias because a) that's where the population majority is and b) that's where the media majority is. Until recently the Astros haven't given anyone reason to pay much attention to them, but they have now. It's great to be hated and feared by Yankees and Dodger fans.
3. The Astros cheated, but none of us yet knows the extent of it. If they cheated, they deserve to be punished.

Whatever the cheating may have been, the masses will put Manfred in the Pontius Pilate role. His hands are tied.

One positive, is the chances of them taking the BoSox '18 flag is near zero. Gammons et. al. would have a stroke otherwise. With that fact, I think our '17 championship is safe. I'm at the point that we just have to make sure Luhnow isn't banned. Otherwise, I can live with it, and we all can move on with draft pick losses, and fines. |
