The Houston Astros keep breaking records for the wrong reasons.
This past Sunday according to Nielson ratings, the Astros and Indians game drew a rating of 0.0 in the greater Houston area.
ZERO-POINT-ZERO
The Houston Chronicle explains that it doesn’t necessarily mean that there wasn’t one person who tuned in, it just means that not a single, solitary Nielsen household tuned in to watch the Astros.
“There are a couple of asterisks involved here, of course,†the Houston Chronicle explained. “For one thing, Nielsen persists with the statistically supportable but still head-shaking concept that it can measure what millions of television viewers are watching by monitoring the behavior of hundreds.â€
So what was it?
•The Houston Texans were playing at the same time.
•The Houston Astros were handed their ninth consecutive loss and their 105th defeat of the year.
•The games are only seen on CSN Houston.
The Astros pulled a 0.04 rating during the weekend of Alabama vs. Texas A&M and the Texans first home game.
Whatever the reason might be you can’t say today that the Astros aren’t being talked-about nationally.
So to everyone in here who whines about how terrible their team is, I have only one thing to say:
