What the media won’t tell you about true motivations behind negative Astros coverage

PRESENTED BY COORS LIGHT

This week, LA Times writer Bill Plaschke wrote an Astros hit piece, blaming the team for the Dodgers only having one championship since 1988, that didn't come with a COVID-shorted season. Meaning, the insecurity of Dodger fans regarding the 2020 championship is driving so much of the hate for Houston. And he's not the only one, media outlets from across the country are taking shots at the Astros knowing that bagging on the team for 2017 still drives traffic to websites.

And what's crazy is we have Yankee fans, like Stephen A. Smith, coming out and saying stop talking about the cheating, the Astros swept the Yankees and are clearly a better team. But somehow Dodger fans feel differently. It might have something to do with not having to get through the Astros to make the league championship series each year.

Be sure to check out the video above as we shoot down these tired and often factually incorrect swipes at our beloved Houston Astros. The hypocrisy that is being spewed can't go unchecked.

What an incredible year it was for the Houston Texans. It's hard to believe how much they accomplished in such a short period of time. They went into the draft not knowing who their quarterback would be in 2023, and finished the season winning the division and then beating the Browns in the Wild Card Round of the playoffs.

What a turnaround it was for the franchise. Here's your chance to relive all the magic and special moments in this mini-movie the Texans put together.

Enjoy, and go Texans!
