Around SBN: SB Nation interviews Jerome Bettis

Great team or Greatest?

I said i would do it so here we go. 

 

The question on the dockett after the most recent of Braves wins is this, is this year's version of the Braves a great team, or the Greatetst team ever assembled? i will reserve my opinion until some discussion. This game is a classic example of how great they are. We have great pitching from a top of the line ace, in Timm Huddson. we get show off the power with a bomb by KJ, Chipper's quest for 400 contines.. we have a young RF who has shown some real promise. and beisdes Boyer's meanignless earned run, the bullpen pitched outstanding.

 

So i ask is there anythign this team can't do.. i think the World Series is a foregone conclusion, but what about the BCS Championship?

I'm confused...

...which team have you been watching?

by homerun on Jul 5, 2008 1:36 AM EDT reply actions  

Greatest.

Ever.

Is there any need for discussion? I figure we’ve got at least 70 more wins in this team.

by Something Profound on Jul 5, 2008 2:08 AM EDT reply actions  

Brian McCann...

...is on pace for 16 sacks.

Unfortunately Acosta keeps throwing interceptions.

your attempt at comedy fails.

but for the record, the struggling corpse of jeff francoeur is DEFINITELY uh…xavier lee i guess

my attempt at humor usually fail, but i think it accomlpishes its goal of showing how stupid it is to make a post about how we should mail in the season just because we lose a game. Its hard to be over the top after a win, i think i was able to do that.

he's just grumpy.

"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."

in bigjoe’s world, there’s only one place, any conflict can be solved: doesn’t matter if it’s an internet dispute, marital problems, necrophilia, misunderstanding… everything can be figured out, in this very ring.

No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.

speaking of wrestling...

sort of…. on my recent trip to Atlanta, I was injured. I ended up with a lump on my forehead and a black eye…after being hit with a metal folding chair.

No details to follow.

by sddbaker on Jul 5, 2008 9:14 PM EDT reply actions  

i wasn’t in atlanta for the past like…6 years. so yeah

by bigjoe on Jul 5, 2008 9:49 PM EDT up reply actions  

well...

I wasn’t actually wrestling, but I did get hit in the head with the folding chair…

by sddbaker on Jul 5, 2008 9:54 PM EDT up reply actions  

I told you

That Hallowell Parkway was in a bad part of town…

No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
