Around SBN: Blogger Q&A - And The Valley Shook

Braves blogosphere (choposphere) grows

Most of you are familiar with "bigjoe," the purveyor of the NAHWAL game here at Talking Chop, and one of my pinch-hitters while I was on vacay. Joe's a good writer and has done a great job here at TC, and now he's received an opportunity to start his own blog. His new blog, Braves Heart, will be a part of the Fanball Sports Network. I told Joe yesterday that this makes him Ned Yost to my Bobby Cox (I gess that makes Matt, Kurt Kemp, and RoyHobbs, Chino Cadahia). If you haven't already, wish Joe good luck at his new blog.

In other blogging news, if you always wanted to be a part of a network blog, Chop'n'Change is running another contest to find an additional blogger. See if you're up to the task of writing multiple times a week about the Braves.

Braves Heart? Not Braves Ducktits?

No...they needed to use Francoeur heavily in their marketing...

And God knows he has heart!

Remember, kids...don't ever let facts get in the way of your argument.

Joe's Blog

The Don Rickles of the blog world. Big Joe, I hope you have grown up a little and not abuse everyone who has a different point of view otherwise we will see back at Talking (s@#&) chop

Why do I have to be Chino?

It’s because I’m 512 lbs and my gut is capable of hanging over anything in the known world, right?

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

Then dammit

I demand that you change the titles at the bottom of the page to reflect such analogies! I’ve seen other SBN blogs have clever titles for the staff. I want people to KNOW that I’m a gargantuan Cuban fatass from now on out then.

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

Just don’t change your avatar to Fupa in a towel. Please.

Number of Penis references in the first month?

O/U – 5

PSA - when making over/under jokes

You HAVE to use a decimal, otherwise there’s a chance that you will have no winner.

If ducktits makes exactly 5 references, than there’s no winner. But if it were anything from 5.5, 5.1, 5.9, then five is most certainly under.

So, can I be Terry Pendleton, the chubby guy with a seemingly good reputation who doesn’t really seem to do anything?

The same TP who probably tells Jeff that he’s a great hitter and he just needs to swing harder at every pitch.

Or who's just given up at this point.

Actually (courtesy of Mark Bradley) ...
TP: "I always think there are things I can do better, and I’m always asking the players questions: ‘What do I need to do better?’ Physically, I think I can help a guy prepare. Mentally, you can do a lot of talking, but sometimes that individual has to step up."

Reporter: How will you address all of the dropped passes?

Mike Smith: I don’t think that we were as sharp as we have been catching the football. It’s something that is very fixable. It’s VERY fixable.

oh and congrats to Big Joe. I don’t know you and you don’t know me, but we both love the Braves so that’s all I need. Give ‘em hell over there…eh, but don’t be mean.

So in summation, Go Braves!

Best of luck BJ. Continue the great writing and complete blasphemy of the English language.

Also, sucks that Will Schaffer left Chop-N-Change. I enjoyed reading his work.

Congrats!

I know you’ll do us proud.

Thanks to all for the well wishing. Because of my crappy retail jobs, I won’t be able to get up a whole lot up during the day during the week, so nights will kind of be my bread and butter…I don’t want to say I’m STEALING ideas from here, but I’d like to think I’m improving on certain things. Like, Matt’s minor league recaps, I’m gonna do a WHOS HOT/NOT kind of thing for the week for all levels of the organization. Its gonna be a fun ride, and I hope to see a lot of you over there.

And I’m not going to be a dick like I am here…all viewpoints are welcome. I don’t think I can swear either…sorry =(
