This is probably a question to Houstonians. Why was this such a big deal, anyway? I mean, I realize that the Astros had a much better record at home with the roof closed (presumably because of crowd noise, etc.) but for those that have attended games, would closing the roof for those games held in Houston been consistent with the weather conditions when the roof was closed during the regular season?
I mean, I understand wanting to give your team every advantage that comes with the home field, but would that have cheapened it for you at all had the Astros won because the roof was closed -- (by either a loss of a ball against the roof/lights, or an error by the other team due to the amplified crowd noise, or any other possible unique-to-a dome reasons?) Or am I all wet, and a win is a win is a win?
And speaking of Houston -- Sheryl Swoopes comes out as a lesbian. Color me shocked -- (Not really).
