Chron: Minute Maid is cool like Wrigley!

I was catching up on my sports reading this morning after a few days out of town, and this observation from Drayton McLane's man at the Chronicle nearly made me choke on my coffee:

The Astros under Drayton McLane haven't won a World Series, but he has provided consistent winning. Billy Wagner might have been right that McLane has been more interested in competing than winning, but nobody can deny the Astros have been one of the most competitive teams in baseball under McLane's ownership.

Minute Maid Park has become a place to be in Houston. Some might even call it Wrigley Field South, where fans are now showing up just to participate in the ambiance.

Err, yeah.

And all those parking lots, grassy fields, and vacant buildings in the downtown area are a lot like Wrigleyville too.

Right!
