I have to say, I know almost nothing about the guys we got in return and, frankly, don't care until they either make it or don't.
The only thing I'm genuinely happy about this morning is that Roy will never have the club record for wins.
I mean seriously. Fuck that guy.

Are you that naive, to think that the Astros won't try to bring him back in the twilight of his career for one last shot, and then he can retire as a 'Stro? Then, the next year, they can have a big ceremony to retire Roy-O's number! And a few months later, Roy-O bobblehead Night! Then the next year, it's Roy-O breaks the Astros Wins Record Commemorative Mouse Pad Night! And of course the year after that, Astros announce that Roy-O has been hired as a Special Assistant to the GM!

I actually had considered that.
Then I realized he's already in the twilight of his career and got over it.

I don't put it past the Astros but I really don't see Roy giving two shits about the record. Maybe if they threw multi-millions at him.

This has all happened so fast it feels like a Haitian Divorce. I’m just glad that Wade gave the Cards the East St Louis Toodle Oo. I think the only way Oswalt would have gone there is With a Gun. Naming them as a leading trade partner was Pretzel Logic. Only a Fool Would Say That. I am also very pleased with the trade and flip. You should always Throw Back the Little Ones.
With the Berkman trade now pending this is starting to feel like Black Friday. It’s like Chain Lightning. A True Change of the Guard. But, give Lance a few month with the Show Biz Kids and he’ll come running home telling us that Daddy Don’t Live in That New York City No More.

It's sad to see Berkman go, but most athletes, are just show biz kids making movies of themselves. You know they don't give a fuck about anybody else.

Yeah, so, this is where you should say your kidding and back away slowly. Feel free to talk shit about Roy, but you're not even close on Lance.

Sounds like you need some Faith and Family Night.

It's either THERE IS NO GOD or Berkman showing up saying I'm going to the Yankees, PRAYERS ARE ANSWERED!

And according to FooterTweet, Bobby Meacham will be giving his testimony tomorrow night. I've heard the Lord works in mysterious ways...

In addition to the erroneous content, I would like to diagram this sentence for you; however, html confines prevent me from being able to do so.

Um, guys, it's a line from Steely Dan's "Showbiz Kids." I was just in the spirit of the previous posts.

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that Berkman is not one of those "show biz kids" to whom you make reference. Lance Berkman gave his all for the Astros. You never heard about him complaining or malingering on the injury table. He'll always be an Astro in my book, and I firmly believe that he'll retire as an Astro.

I'm hoping Berkman gets himself a ring this year.

If it comes down to rooting for the Yankees (Berkman) or any of these: Cardinals, Phillies or Braves, I'm guessing I will, gulp, root for the Yankees, too.

Not when Steely Dan is on.

I have to admit, I laughed when I saw that Roy lost his first game for A Contending Team He Wanted To Get Traded to last night. Good riddance.
However, seeing Lance in a Yankees uniform is so strange, it made me melancholy. I'm glad he has the opportunity to do something for a different team, but it's just strange.

You know what? Fuck the Yankees, but I want to see Lance hit a home run in every bat for them. If they win a World Series with him contributing, I'm good.

I was about to post "I like Lance as much as the next guy", but apparently that's not so. Berkman in pinstripes isn't nearly enough to get me to root for the Yankees. The only thing that could get me to do that would be the Cubs in the other dugout. Not the Dodgers. Not the Phillies. Not even the Cardinals. Just the Cubs.

My feelings as well. Good luck Lance, Fuck the Yankees.
