This weekend series is the World Series for the 2013 Houston Astros. Finally, a chance to get four straight games with the hated Mariners in our home stadium. The entire year for both teams was a mere prelude to what should be an epic showdown. Oh, those smug fucking seafarers and their fish flinging fucking fans have just been chuckling to themselves, sipping their cortados and pretending not to have been nervously eyeing Labor Day weekend on their calendars since the opening bell rang back in April. WELL IT'S ON NOW MOTHERFUCKERS. You can't ignore the decades of insults and the painful past that forged this hated rivalry any longer. Your day of reckoning is here, and IT'S ABOUT FUCKING TIME.
Play ball.
