For The Love of the Astros is blogging under a (slightly) new name! The 2005 Astros proved that fairy tales really do come true. This lifelong Astros Girl is ready for more in 2006 and will be blogging about all things Astros all season long.
and why does the opposing team have an 8 yr old in the lineup? =)
Dennis,
I think that's what I've loved most about Roger's minor league tour... He's in a situation where he must solemnly listen to the national anthem with a slew of bush league mascots, participate in local fundraisers, handle the pressure to strike out batters in order for the crowd to get a gallon of free windshield wiper fluid... It must be surreal for him. I have no illusions that his ego isn't the size of Texas or anything, I know it's big, but he's handled it all with grace and humility. Yes, I think it's probably been very good for him! Thanks for visiting...
Thomas, I have NO idea what's going on with the over-abundance of mascots... and I don't know what the deal with the kid is... It makes it all the funnier, at least for me.
Will the official mascot please stand...
Very funny - no matter how "big" players get, it's nice to be humbled a little bit!

Why do they have 3 mascot-types? What the fewer A's, the more Mascots?

It certainly looked like a surreal painting... But it's true what Lisa said. Seems like Clemens is taking this dose of "downgrading" gracefully..
