Ah, yes. As Mac Thomason wrote at Braves Journal, there's "nothing like a dose of the Astros to cure what ails you." Rain loomed for a while Saturday at Turner Field but never came. Eventually, we got some sunlight, but it was never a truly comfortable day. However, the baseball was superb. The crowd was fairly tranquil and tepid early on, except when Jason Heyward came to bat. The guy can't legally drink and Turner Field is already crazy about him. Troy Glaus received some moans and groans early on, but we warmed up to him today. :)
I want to say how ANNOYING the idiots with the quad drums and other conduits to noise-making racket are in front of the stadium. Thank you and goodbye. Here you are trying to enjoy some pre-game conversation, purchase your tickets, and check out some of the monuments, but you can barely process your thoughts because we've got some people thinking we've just showed up for a varsity football jamboree! End of rant.
A beautiful yard.
A good reason why I should have gotten in shape and practiced baseball every day.
Meet Stoney.
So, I made one-sided buddies with this dude I named Stoney.
Stoney tossed back a few beers and enjoyed some pizza on his Saturday out at Turner Field.
Stoney caught Heyward fever shortly after the first inning and returned with a jersey!
Seventh-inning stretch time!
And here we have the worst haircut I think I've ever seen.
View from the seats!
What's a trip to Atlanta without hitting Fogo de Chao?
I was about to burst this time around. Laughing was legitimately difficult, yet so worth it.
And, finally, for the guys of Talking Chop:

I’m fairly reminded of little Lilo, with this odd fascination of taking pictures of fat people eating
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
I’m afraid “Stoney” is me from the future. I haven’t changed much.

$90 for me...
… for dinner, a cocktail, dessert, a double espresso, and about a 20% tip. The meat and the service there is absolutely amazing. A server will take your used plate and a different server will swoop in behind you with a clean plate. They’ll listen in on your conversation—my friend was raving about the garlic roast and one of the servers dropped in and said, “I’ll make sure that makes its way back over here.” The meat is cooked to absolute perfection with some of the most rich flavors you’ll ever encounter. Filet mignon wrapped in bacon is absolutely ridiculous. Definitely worth the money if you only go every six or so months.
Oh, Bobby.

This place sounds great,
definitely gonna check it out the next time I’m in Atl. Oh yeah, the pics of the game are great also!
Why hasn’t anyone mentioned the boobs yet?
It’s obviously a competition now…

Well, nobody ever mentions the balls
in all the pics posted of the guys, so…turnabout is fair play, maybe? I dunno, I got my own boobs so it’s always a yawner for me. :)
And the over the shoulder shot like that seems a bit...
perverse. It’s not like she’s posing for the picture as some are in other shots elsewhere around here. The “boobs” above seem a bit in bad taste, and a picture not taken in a manner the Sanchez can condone.
Well, for one, we don’t wear clothes that proudly display half of our balls…
Also, the TC woman, and BigJoe, have spoken out and taken pictures of the rears of some of our players, so don’t give us any flack about turnabout.
and here at TC, your’s (although figments of our imagination) are prized more than any random fan at any game :)

Am I the only retard that...
Looked at the Fogo de Chao sign and thought, "Shittt. Why would they ruin a huge building like that by putting the name of a restaurant in big letters horizontally across it. I thought each tile was a window. smh (at my self).
4/4/10
The Braves will win 90 games this year.
