Congratulations, Houston Astros! (And shouldn't that name really be "Houston Astronauts"? I mean, WTF is an "Astro"? Just saying.)
This makes not only 2 World Series titles, but 4 pennants for the former Colt 45's, in the past 6 seasons. Impressive! (Beats the Yankees' 0-13 string.)
So where do they rank in baseball history? Well, let's take a look!

An Astro is a space dog. Just like Laika, except Laika was real. Laika died a cruel and painful death. Which would be acceptable for the asstros. and HAL. and ca$hole. and perm boy. and the trostster. especially the trostster. he's the straw that stirs the drink nowadays. or at least the master puppeteer.
Iirc, the Ottoman Empire used to be a big deal, too.
Don’t get me wrong - I hate the Cheatros. But the Yankees under Cashman are about as relevant as the Ottomans
I really need a glossary for this team. Permboy? Trotster?
Randy Levine and Lonnie Trost.
You're not a mutts fan are you?
No Rufus, just new here. And possibly brain damaged.
Davey, you’ll fit right in
