    Of course he does. And he's obviously a Rangers fan.

    Another classic example of ill informed Texans electing officials acting against the best interests of those they serve.

    Even if it was a real account, its not like every gawdamn fan thought we were going to blow a 4 run lead and lose that game in two innings.

    This is almost as bad as his quote from this summer that "the most important thing about bbq is the sauce."

    I thought that little checkmark next to the name was supposed to mean it was a verified account. If the real Greg Abbott is @GregAbbott_TX then why does @GovAbbott have a checkmark?

    That one sounds like the Governors account, while the other one sounds like his own.

    Anyway, we should fight. We would have to walk to the ring, and then walk up the ring, and then walk to each other and face to face standing on our own two feet. And if he is man enough, walk out of the ring under his own powers.

    And my music coming to the ring would be Walk, by Pantera.

    Gloom and doom the Astros. POS.

    Let's be real.

    This was a city-wide jinx fail.

    I had co-workers looking into tickets for the next round.

    I went to Sunday's game but not Monday's.

    A friend bought nachos several innings too early.

    And so on.
