And the Astros have yet to win a world series. We got in one and got beat badly. Are there any hopes to being an Astro fan with an owner that treats the team as if it were a part of his grocery business? I think not. I do not believe that with Drayton as owner we will ever win a world series. Not while there are owners like George Steinbrenner that are in it to win, not to make a buck.

Yep. A grocery selling carnival barker like Draytie will not win. He doesn't know how baseball operates and he keeps on putting his grubby little paws into the GM's picinic basket. Could be worse though, he could be Al Davis!  |

Not in it to make a buck?...There is not an owner in sports that is not in it to make a buck, and they all put that first.And, speaking of making a buck....nobody makes more bucks than the Yankees.
That said....Mc Clain makes the continued mistake of listening to non baseball people like Pam Gardner.I wish he would swallow pride and call Hunsinger back and offer him any support he wanted.
McLain is not a bad owner...he has one of the highest payrolls.
Our problem has been dumbsh*ts in charge, not tightwads.
