Astros versus Cardinals
The National League Championshop Series starts tonight, but you might not know that if you're just following the national sports media. Monday night's Astros/Braves game was preceded by a brutal half hour pregame show where all they talked about was the Yankees versus Red Sox series. Hell, even here in Dallas Fox is showing that game instead of Game 1 of the Astros series. We're in Texas, show the damn Astros for Pete's sake!

After today's epic 18-inning emotional freefall between Houston and Atlanta, will the Astros finally get some R-E-S-P-E-C-T. For years sports fans and media from outside of Texas have viewed Houston as a second-class team from a second-class city filled with low-life business types out to make a buck at any price. Well, that just isn't Houston, Texas. It's a city of winners, it's a city with a heart, it's a city where anyone can become successful and you don't have to own an energy company or screw your employees to do it. The Houston Astros are known locally as the "Good Guys" and they are. Coming from what looked to be a disasterous season in late spring, to a real contender in October took determination, talent and a community spirit that is hard to find today. In my mind, the Astros' win today only proves that "Good Guys" don't alway finish last.
