Man, I was just putting another thread up. Had it up five seconds before I saw this one and deleted it.
Maybe we should just shut down TC for the night. That, or we should give Ben permission to pull to Gondeee and put:
“NUTS!”
as the whole recap.

what the hell was that
The braves didn't choke - Bobby Cox did. He should've never been hired - much less still be destoring the Braves. Joe Torree's "Ace" was Rick Mahler. Just think what he could've done with those 14 division chamnpionships and Greg Maduxx, Tom Glavine and John Smoltz if he would've had the chance. And when he did have the chance, he outmanaged bobby Cox's @#$% at every turn. Or have you forgottenn that the Braves became the first time in baseball history to lose the World Series whenever they lead 3- 1? And whom did the lose too? The superior Joe Torre managed New York Yankess - that's who.
Don't you just love Yahoo Sports?
I don't think anybody said it would be easy
I didn’t expect us to basically rape any chance we had at winning though.

So how many days before Bobby with trust Farnsworth again?

Spectacular plays are cool and all but I prefer a guy who can regularly make routine ones. I think he’s probably pressing but whatever is going on, he and Troy Rodin over there at first are not helping things much here lately.

yep
annd Hinske has been pretty much the same. Good in April and May. Nothing special since
McCann started slow in April but has been OPSing over .800 since then.
Its just funny to me that Troy could be slumping for 6 weeks and still be at the top of the teams leaders in production
by drumzalicious on Aug 9, 2010 11:02 PM EDT up reply actions
and if you're willing to put
McCann and Hinke’s production up against Glaus’s….since you want to defend him, then I’ll have that argument ANY day
considering
that with his slump he’s still leading the team in RBI’s and 2nd in HRs? Making a max of about 3-4 mil?
yea you win

How many players made multiple bone-head plays today?
Mac: Passed Ball, Throwing Error
Alex Gonzalez: Fielding Error, Not Covering 2nd Base
Hinske: Missing Cutoff man
What else have I missed
Also
Glaus: typical poor covering of pick off throws

Heyward’s mini-slide instead of continuing to run could have perhaps gotten an out but didn’t.

Yeah it was, I agree. But he stopped his momentum and might have made it if he had kept running.
And most definitely HE is not the reason the score is 10-4.

You know, I want to feel bad about all these bloops
And while they’re frustrating to happen at the same time, we’ve certainly been on the good side of some bloop hits and untimely errors by the other team. I mean that whole 7 run 9th inning against the Reds doesn’t happen if the 3B gets the ball out of his glove.

My friends and I were playing a drinking game, where we took a drink anytime absolutely riddiculous happened in the braves game.
Now two of them are passed out in critical condition at the local hospital, one of em is dead, I’m fine, This one girl threw up 4 or 5 times, and i don’t know where my other friend is… so yep thanks guys

but we didnt really give up anything to make me upset either…and ankiel’s offense hasnt been so good…but his range is better than melkys…so thats something i guess

Farnsworth left the bases loaded and Moylan gave up two singles
the second after a series of error, all the runners scored = 4 runs, just like a inside park Grand slam
