"We Fucking Grinded, I Wasn't Even Fucking Here" - Justin Verlander With a Hilarious, F-Bomb Filled Speech To Celebrate The Astros' 7th Consecutive ALCS Appearance

I hate that I laughed, but funny is funny. Verlander giving this speech, attempting to remind everyone the tough road the Astros found themselves on to get to this point and then realizing he wasn't here for practically any of it. Bastard gets traded from the shit show New York Mets and now finds himself once again on the doorstep of the Fall Classic. The staying power the Houston Astros have in the American League is equally sickening as it is impressive. I ran out of Bleach to drink years ago, now I can only tip my cap. 

Almost like an involuntary action, Houston is back in the ALCS. It's every year. Literally every single year. 7 consecutive ALCS appearances is fucking nonsense. It's New England Patriots dynasty type-stuff where Dave used to say the season didn't start until the AFC Championship game. Yeah Altuve missed a ton of time, Framber had hiccups, Yordan was out, Bregman's bat wasn't the same, the rotation was pretty weak overall, and you know what? They're once again four wins away from a World Series appearance and they're laughing at all of us.

Rangers-Astros has all the makings of an epic postseason series, especially if Scherzer is back in the mix. Surely Tank will handle a Max vs. JV game in a calm, non-life threatening manner. 

P.S. Does FS1 for some reason get away with f-bombs everywhere or are they about to get hit with a massive FCC fine? Awesome we got to hear the whole thing without bleeps, but someone has to be fired.
