=abrahamburger= 2,566 Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 Right, just because I haven't been watching them doesn't mean I don't check the score on espn.com, its usually showing Braves losing anyways.That's stupid, dude.You're jaded. You want them to fail so you can... I dunno, be happy about it?WTF? Take a stand. If you think they suck, don't watch them. But wtf, you check in on them to make sure they are losing?Put a red rubber ball in your mouth and let someone whip you with a rake handle. You're pursuing disappointment.

You're pursuing disappointment.I never want the Braves to fail, however the Braves fail on their own with their choking. By the way the Braves are going, it looks like they have the red rubber ball in their mouth's and their choking. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hatch 53 Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 Looks like Posey is the ROTY. I don't know why Cox keeps Heyward @ the 2nd spot in batting order. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This team was playing really well with what they had before the all-star break. Braves went okay at the start of the 2nd half and then collapse and choked the division away.

The Don™ 4,818 Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 (edited) Anybody because Heyward should be batting 3rd.I can't name one capable guy that could bat 2nd right now...Please name one.Our offense is just TERRIBLE right now. We can't expect to do anything with the 5-9 being automatic outs right now... Edited October 9, 2010 by The Don™ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
=abrahamburger= 2,566 Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 Maybe I'm not making myself clear.Let's do a comparison for the Phillies.1) Remove Victorino and Utley.2) Remove Oswalt and Kendrick.3) Now remove Howard and Halladay because they make way too much money. Now tack on 10 years to Brad Lidge.4) Now replace all of those players with 1-year rental scrubs. let's see how they do.Wow, wait a minute, if you only do #1 and #2, they are 7.5 games back in July.

=abrahamburger= 2,566 Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 Anybody because Heyward should be batting 3rd.Somebody mentioned this on the Braves board, also without thinking about it.You can only put Melky or Conrad in the 2 spot right now.You really think that's a good idea?

That's in for offense.You want to load them up and rearrange things in the 1-4/5 spots? That only leaves a GIGANTIC sinkhole at the end of our line-up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
