Game 2, ugh. Now, in the second half of the season, we can't win at home. Maybe the Tijuana Iguana can stop the bleeding.

I remember ESPN radio pronouncing Jorge as "Georgie"

Hope the Rev can put up a good showing cause Harden’s not going to make things easy.

Here’s an article I like about Harden. If you’re too lazy to read at least click it and scroll a little passed halfway. You can see the difference between his heater and change. It’s brutal.

Over/Under 9.5 Ks for Harden? Oh, and I’m calling a hat trick on Frenchy.

you’re assuming harden will stay in that long

Following the Braves...one long hard drink at a time.

You're right

Should have been over/under on 2.5 innings

Can you blame us?

I love the team as much as anyone, but you have to be masochistic to enjoy watching this.

The Braves

18th in the majors in OPS with the bases loaded.

well...

i agree with the masochistic comment above….

i’m sort of avoiding sports altogether so i dont get another bout of depression. When does this end? When we sweep someone out of the hunt? That would be cool i guess. Or personal stats, we can still keep rooting for Chip.
