i prefer this one

I can hear Heap: “Chipper, i miss you. i’m a mess without you. i miss your laugh. i miss your musk. i think when this is all over, you i and should get an apartment together!”
Speaking of the gay lumberjacks...
Teix giving BMac the eye is one of the gayest things I’ve ever seen. And Mac walking away with that little ‘trying not to grin’ thing—love it. :D
Is it just my shitty cable
or is Braves Live all jacked up?
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
Seems fixed now.
Sorry Lizzie…
Still waiting for them to chop some trees?
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
Yes :(
Well, trees are done, but the soonest the dish people would schedule to come back is SUNDAY. But that’s ok, I’ll be here and told Love to post anything interesting/exciting for me.

"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
No
But I’m glad you asked.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
Because I made you something
And I don’t make people things very often.

Well
We did discuss it yesterday
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
I find that strangely
hypnotic.

If that weren't for his bear like arms
Francoeur would’ve been safe up the middle.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
cute
My dog, Maddux, loves playing with/destroying baseballs. He somehow found one and is going crazy over it right now.
Again, in case anyone cares. Which I know gondeee doesn’t. But, at least I’m not telling you about my…data…collection.

“THE DODGERS had Hiroki Kuroda pitch to Andruw Jones before the game, a brilliant move—obviously to bolster Kuroda’s confidence.”
We should loan them
Tavarez to bolster Jones’ confidence.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
We should
Have Tavarez pitch to paraplegics to bolster his confidence.

Thanks for jinxing it.

This is
The Yunel Escobar show. I need to find a good enough picture of him to make into the Che Escobar image.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
Tulo's
Become a crybaby as of late. He has great range, but other intangibles place him beneath Yunel to me.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
He didn't come to America vomiting on a small boat with sharks circling it...
Therefore, Tulo and Jeter get no love from me.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"

Somewhere
An Elian Gonzalez reference needs to show up
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
Yunel's a better hitter than Tulo too
but Tulo deserved a gold glove last year. He was petty amazing. Yunel deserves the GG so far this year but it’ll probably go to The Riot or something stupid like that.
he better get the GG.
If theriot gets it…that’s crap.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
Good jinx, boog.
Chipper’s going to get a hit.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
“prior to brian mccann, who was the last braves catcher to be selected to 3 straight all-star games?”
i’m gonna say dale murphy
i feel the need to buy one of those braves statue of liberty replicas. it’ll look nice on my shelf of death
shelf of death?
I’m curious.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
for what its worth, you are looking at…a chipper jones beanie baby, 4 full-size chipper bobbleheads, a mini bobblehead of chipper, mini bobbleheads of ichiro, jeff bagwell & mike piazza, bobbles of cole hamels, jamie moyer, kaz sasaki, eddie george & ray lewis, a northwestern helmet, a ravens football, 2 coyotes puck, a coyotes mini zamboni, a braves foam finger, a hidden tomahawk, a ravens tissue box, a ravens christmas tree ornament, and 9 baseball, 8 of which are autographed by such luminaries as milton bradley. one however is from a 19…30s-50s yankees team and is covered with smoke. yeah
No
Wrestling replica belts? pffffth. I’ve got like six.

Lady Liberty IS beautiful
That is a piece of crap.

Man, I love that movie.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"

I'd much rather have a Brian McCann bobble-head
but somebody promised it to someone else…
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
Lookit mr. fupa
You never asked. Otherwise, I would’ve searched!
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.

if sddbaker doesn’t email me about what she wants to do with it, i might have to give it to someone else. . . hmmmmmmmm
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.

Pujols damn it
James Loney – way to ruin the game.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
Weird picture...
I found looking for lame Braves merch.

No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
Sorry Huddy
Could have nailed him at 3rd.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
Anti gay/lame Braves merchandise:
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
Also, anti-gay...
...unless the chick that wears this is a catcher herself.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
I think we could get enough guys
to chip in and get it for you…
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!!!!!
You don’t even know if I can fit in it, uh…...do you?? (Getting up to close the blinds)
Sweet!

Do I sound creepy
If I said I remembered too?
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
Well in that case

No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
Told 'ya so.
Not…. that i wouldn’t oblige, either.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
Huddy out of the jam!
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
That would be cool
filled with ice a bottles of beer, such as dos equis.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
HAHA
they can’t get rid of those at the park itself. They try to get people to sit in them on the Lexus Level, but hardly anyone ever bites.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
Ok, starting to get old.
let’s get a freakin’ hit.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
what are the odds of me furnishing my apartment in 2 years with nothing but braves gear, and my girlfriend IMMEDIATELY dumping me upon walking in?
how did he sign it?
without hurting himself?
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."

I have no idea what these are.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.

Huddy with a couple Ks
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
I am not sure
if this is gay, or the coolest thing ever.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
WINNER
When towing shit around, show your Atlanta Braves pride with this:
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
that is for when
you aren’t towing shit. It covers up the hitch.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
You're totally missing the point
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
for measuring shit
before you hammer it.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
You know that part in 80's movies
Where all the people are at the dance, and something happens, and you hear the sound of a needle being ripped off the record player/victrola?
I think you might be getting there
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
I think...
This describes a lot of us better:

No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
Oh lordy
We don’t need another heart attack of being no-hit again
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
Same reason
Why Hanley Ramirez and Alfonso Soriano lead off
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
For your gals and Pujolinas
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
I actually have a Braves scrunchie that’s uglier than that one. It’s maroon with the Braves-tomahawk logo and cost me $8 at the game, but it was SO HOT and my hair was everywhere.
w00t
no-hitter disengaged.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
nice running gregor!
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."

I don’t even want to know what this would taste like.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
Who kidnapped
Chipper?
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
He's been struggling LH
since he started grabbing his right shoulder after swinging and missing from the left side against the Astros
Ugh
This ain’t looking good, ya’ll.
where’s trashed gondeee to crash the party? We started scoring when he showed up yesterday.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
welp
we’re in trouble. officially. we spent all our offense last night.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
well
hope Andruw can help us out with a Vidro.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
Yeah, but actually I kind of like it.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
No!!!!!!!!!!
Andruw gets a hit NOW!?
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
Uh oh
Andruw just got his second RBI of the season against us. :(
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
and took out Andruw.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
Alright
I’m going to stop searching for lame Braves stuff .. we’ve actually got a ball game on our hands now.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
On a different note
Although last I checked, it said TBD, I think we get Maddux on Sunday.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
poor maddux
he has pitched so well this year, but gets no run support AT ALL.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
I wonder
If we’ll get those MLB pictures of him, glavine and Smoltz all standing together, balding and looking goofy smiles.
I love those pictures.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
I want an 8x10 or 11x17 to frame on my wall.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
HEY!
We got Cy Young winners here!!!!
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
glavine looks so skinny.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."

This picture always gets me. I don’t know whether to laugh at the lame pose, smile at the good memories that staff brought, or cry at the fact that that was over a decade ago.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
kent mercker in the middle?
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
ah that was from '93...
15 YEARS AGO…unbelievable…
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
I also want this.
where can I get?
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
You don't want to know
What a rights-managed photograph runs for …
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
Yeah, I guess its not possible for me to get one.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
I've got
An account with them. They can stick it, if they do.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
Their reps are
Real jerks. I had a lot of fun threatening them with ScumTrust money… saying that I’m taking my business elsewhere to their competition that would give me Braves tickets and personal gifts …
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
Oh
But that didn’t mean to remove it! They have 1-3 people combing through the internet to see if anyone’s using their images. You’re fine.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
how much does an image cost?
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
Even
If you wanted it for personal uses, you’re looking at probably around $200-300. Now imagine telling them that you want to put an image in a newspaper ad that has a circulation of 4.4 million.
I think the most I’ve had to spend was $32,000 on a single image.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
damnit
that isn’t fair. I just want it to put above my “shelf of death.”
impossible?
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
If I had my corporate settings still
I could easily get it. But alas, I don’t. One thing I actually miss about ScumTrust.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
I want an 8x10 of this framed.
where can I get?
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
FRENCHY YOU FREAK-OF-NATURE!!!!
I
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
Lowe's thinkin' right now
“OH MY PUJOLS i let up a home run to jeff f(#*($ing francoeur”
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
That kinda makes up for Andruw getting a RBI on us.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
no
because Andruw’s RBI is the difference right now.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
Kent earned his
Andruw’s was a WTF moment
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
Ok, so the road to alcoholism is paved...
we’ve gotten a HR the past two nights within 10 minutes of me pouring a drink…
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
here's to another run...
I’m mixing another drink.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
the problem is...
I’ve been looking at braves merchandise, and when I get a little, drunk, I get on ebay and start buying worthless shit.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
EFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
Bad Kotsay! No wifey for you!!!!
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
he just wants to game to be over
so he can go home to Jamie wearing the bikini…or possibly sans bikini…
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
that's besides the point
We lose a pinch-hitter, and have to burn someone else at the top of the next.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
boyer
is about due for an implosion…he has been too good lately.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"

i can’t believe people have sex with blood relatives. but it happens in the south…THE DEEEEEEEEEEEEP SOUTH!
big joe likes the big women. i swear to god, ITS JUST A COINCIDENCE! THEY’RE ALL REALLY NICE!!!!!
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
my one cousin thats my age is actually pretty hot. she looks a shit ton like uh… data star kelly kline. and her name is kelly too. HOLY SHIT
go look at your...data...and calm down about your cousin.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"

Good job, Boyer.
Further justifies my belief that Tavarez is there to alleviate pressure.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
Lordy
Saito’s pretty filthy. His control is exceptional. Looking bleak…
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
Reverse psychology.
I always believe we have a chance.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
1st half....
is almost over!...that is my self-mantra. imo…healthy lineup and staff keeps us in the race in the second half. Oh yeah…no stats to back my opinion.
well
its been real, and its been fun, but it hasn’t been real fun.
Its now up to yunel to save us.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
PIECEOFSHITCOCKSUCKERMOTHERFUCKER!
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
damn
now I have to drink this whole drink for nothing.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
This is reality
Francoeur – 1/4, HR
Chipper – 0-fer
We know Chipper’s not going to last with this slump. And if Francoeur’s truly “back” we can only look up. That being said, next on the agenda – Jake Peavy. Fun way to bring in the weekend!
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
I might cry when we face Maddux.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
Sucks to add on to our MLB record
I hate 1 run games. Let’s make it like volleyball where you have to win by 2.
But at least Huddy pitched pretty awesome, Boyer did his job, and Frenchy hit a HR.
yes, but nobody seemed to be able to hit the &$#(% ball
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
Except Francoeur.
Keep that in mind!
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
yeah, sorry I left of
the “else.” nobody ELSE seemed to hit the ball.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
Well
Good night everyone. I imagine tomorrow will be another slow day in TC-land, being an off-day, I predict 1 crybaby, two threads of back-to-back arguments, and no less than six all-caps bigjoe posts.
See ya’ll on Friday, if you brave it.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
I will be here or there, whichever.
I won’t wait until the 8th inning to start drinking. Maybe we can get on them early. There’s always the day after tomorrow.
Fupa.
...data…
