More in the line of remembering fans of older generations
« on: October 21, 2005, 06:40:47 pm »
Some feller in the Express-News wrote  this misty tale about his crotchety old grandma who had little patience for anything, but always hope and faith in the Colt 45s/Astros and baseball. A nice read.

I was surprised the writer left out Harry Kalas, who got his start on the Houston broadcasts. Gene Elston ought to be in the HOF. He would be were he on either coast.
