I <3 my 2010 Atlanta Braves

You stole my line!

Also, to whoever it was that said “DAMN YOU DAVID FREESE!” in one of the threads Monday- good call, mate. Good call.

Yes...

And I was so glad we chose to load the bases and pitch to him after he had single-handedly provided a new pooping orifice to the Braves in this series and hit a 3-run HR in the 1st inning.

Bitches don't know about my David Freese.

can anyone explain to me why our hitters are taking strike one and strike two and putting oursleves into bad hitting counts? On a side note, when I played baseball in high school as well as college, my coach always taught us that when you are in a slump, GO THE OTHER WAY, our hitters seem to want to hit 9 run home runs all the time!!!!!!

WHY US?????????

I have but one thing to say:

OH YEAH MASTERBLASTER IS UP IN HERE

HEY GLAUS BUDDY. I’VE BEEN ONE OF YOUR BIGGEST DEFENDERS. HOW ABOUT MAKING ME NOT FEEL LIKE A JERK SOMETIMES AND NOT STRIKEOUT OR GROUND INTO A DOUBLE PLAY. IT’S ALRIGHT JUST TO HIT A SINGLE, I PROMISE.

HEY DIAZ HOW ABOUT TAKING A PITCH. I KNOW YOU MISS FRENCHY BUT JESUS NO NEED TO HAVE LEGACY CARRY ON

MELKY…JUST….FUCK YOU.

IN CONCLUSION:

THAT IS WHAT IT IS LIKE TO WATCH YOU GUYS RIGHT NOW.

Maybe if they hadn't fucked with the dog's ears

He wouldn’t be de-genitaling them…

And FUCK YOU McLouth for staring at pitches for STRIKE 3. SWING THE DAMN BACK YOU SOB!!!!!!!!!

dutchschultz - April 29, 2010 reply

Right now, Atlanta sports is giving me nothing. I’d be more okay with the current losing streak if the Hawks were beating up on the Bucks, who don’t have a center, but they’re about to complete the most epic choke job ever. I need a Braves win now!

not to beat u while ur down, but the Bucks have a center Kurt Thomas…he is just a liability offensively. His defense is top notch

and Fear the Deer

Swo12bv - April 29, 2010 reply

a “center” that is an inch and 15 lbs lighter than our “center” Al Horford? Not buying it. I’m obviously referring to the fact that your All-Star caliber center is on the bench and we still can’t dominate inside…

Something has to give…our team is too good to be slumping this bad, now I know how the nationals have felt being in the bottom of the east every year…hopefully we turn the page against the stros and may will be a great month cause that is what we need

That was a little different. They were SUPPOSED to finish last, everyone including them knew they had a dearth of talent. This team was supposed to compete, this is far worse.

yeah I agree, my question now is: Can the braves truly turn it around and be contenders by the end of may? My guess is yes we just all have to pray really hard and hope for the best!

fire everybody and start over!!!

Bobby this isn’t meant to be a victory lap. Step up and manage.

TP – are you even paying attention to the season?

Chipper catch the ball for crying out loud!

Glaus please quit.

Yunel take up on fly balls.

Glaus don’t hit into any more inning ending double plays. Just strike out in those situations so someone else can at least get a shot.

LOB is an awful stat.

Starting pitching from here on out you have at most 2 runs to work with. Yes there will be many errors so a no hitter might be useful.

Glaus field your position. I don’t care if Chipper doesn’t have the arm to get it to you…you’re a 1B man…scoop it.

TP seriously stop thinking this is the Bravos of the ’90’s…the 3 run bomb is dead in Atlanta.

Heap, I love ya buddy, but no more wild throws to 2nd and allowing the runner to advance to 3rd. Just let them go.

Timmy & Tommy you have permission to go on strike…I totally understand.

Does our OF go to the plate w/ a bat? If yes, why bother?

Prado for now on you must hit 2 – 8. I don’t expect you to hit leadoff becasuse noone can.

Errors. Wow the errors.

DLowe please make a charitable donation to the Atlanta Braves. You are stealing.

Chipper your big toe again? Come on!

Smoltz no more jokes. They aren’t funny.

KJ, Frenchy, Wainwright! Why why why why why why why why. (Ok on KJ and Frenchy).

hippybustins - April 29, 2010 reply

The best part is his Hitler stache at the end.

everyone thought I was crazy last season

as much as I stuck up for KJ. You know, telling how good a player he already is and could grow to be, but that he just needed to play every day.

Now he’s playing everyday, even against (gasp!) lefties, and he’s hitting like Killing in the Name turned up to 11. Meanwhile, Adam LaRoche suddenly feels like hitting. I wouldn’t have minded signing him for another 2 years (which I also suggested).

So KJ has 9 homeruns, and Roachy has 4 for a total of 13. How many HR does our team have? The answer may not shock you. 12. Yes, that’s right, our two non-tenders have more homers than we do. I hate this. I hate this. I hate this.

I want to go back to August/Semtember of last season, when we were putting it altogether, and wheel that forward to now.

closes eyes really hard

Shit. Didn’t work. Well, at least we have Heyward /yawn.

except this is a moot point...

since Atlanta doesn’t seem to be a hotbed for realizing potential anymore.

KJ wasn’t a part-time player. He got his chance, plenty. I wish we had kept him, for LF instead of Milky.

FitzFan - April 29, 2010 reply

Fuck you Troy Glaus for being a fat fuck who can’t hit and is probably the worst defensive first baseman in the league. Seriously, you’re a professional athlete, why are you so fat?

Fuck you Chipper for being a lazy bum who can’t swing a bat without getting hurt. And you’re terrible at 3B. And a preemptive fuck you for not living up to your word and retiring after the shitty season that you will surely have.

Fuck you Yunel for never running out ground balls and doing something completely retarded at least once a game.

Fuck you Brian McCann for throwing every fucking ball into the outfield. Also, you’re fat too.

Fuck you Melky Cabrera for being an overrated piece-of-shit Yankee.

Fuck you Nate McLouth for giving us a fraction of the production that you put up in Pittsburgh. YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO BE GOOD.

Fuck you Derek Lowe, for obvious reasons.

Fuck you Kenshin Kawakami. How about pitching past the 5th inning for once, asshole.

Fuck you Jason Heyward, how many god damn times are you gonna look at two strikes right down the middle before you start swinging?

Fuck you Bobby Cox. You have always been a horrible manager and continue to make horrible game and lineup decisions. But you’ve been around forever and lucked in to having the best players for 10 years so everybody thinks you’re good. You’re not.

So glad I dropped 120 on MLB.TV to watch the Braves when I could have just seen the Nats in person. And seen a better record.

MattDiazFanClub - April 29, 2010 reply

+1

substitute Giants for Nats

But I was smart enough to only drop $100

And take the SI preview to save $20 and then cancel it immediately…

and watched the braves what...18 times?

What is your point?

Please, dear Jason, please tell me you weren’t going to use the “It’s Early” argument…

THIS IS THE VENTING THREAD! NO COMMON SENSE OR LOGIC ALLOWED!

huh?

no, i was saying instead of dropping $120 to watch the braves suck, he could have watched the Nats for free, and still caught up with his “beloved” braves about 18 times.

by the way, who is jason?

I am still confused by your comment, even with clarification...

And here is clarification for mine…

Please, dear ~~God~~ Jason, please tell me you weren’t going to use the "It’s Early" argument…

then why did you reply to MY statement?

your box quote thingie wasn’t stated by moi.

What we have here...

Is a failure to communicate.

and who is jason???

Alright -- Listen Up

A) I am calling Jason Heyward “God” by placing his name in a phrase that normally would include the word God… “Please, dear God, please” becomes “Please, dear Jason, Please.”

B) I am still confused by your statement about watching the Braves 18 times, which is why I replied to said statement. If he went to all of the nats games in person instead of watching the Braves on MLB.TV, how would he still watch the Braves 18 times?

the advent of television

about 60 years ago made it all possible. he probably gets all the games broadcast on television in his local market. therefore, he is probably able to witness most, if not all of the nationals games, including the ones against atlanta, whether he attended them or not.

and i still don’t know why you’re talking about Jason, even if it is heyward. he had nothing to do with any of the posts regarding MattDiazFanClub’s original post.

this is still a silly “argument” and i’m ashamed to be a part of it.

reply, don’t reply, i don’t care anymore.

braves suck right now.

Hey...hey...

None of that optimism here! GTFO!

My Rant. (Warning foul language and bad grammar)

Braves learn the fundamentals of Baseball.

To Bobby Cox, why are you talkin shit to the most productive player on the team in Heyward. He is leading the team in HR and RBI while being a FUCKING Rookie! Wow this team stinks. Bobby, why the fuck did you pitch to Renty back in the SF game. We all knew he was hot as hell at the moment, why the fuck did you need to pitch to him at that particular moment. Bobby, why did you let Moylan pitch to a left handed bat in that critical situation during the Cards game the other night. You had 2 FUCKING LEFT HANDED PITCHERS in the bullpen. Use them for goodness sake. We were (and still) on a losing fucking streak. Try everything in your power to break it. DAMN!

Hey Frank Wren, great job finding that BIG BAT we needed. Glaus does not scare anybody except me when he comes up to the plate b/c I know he is going to do something to fuck up my day. We need a destroyer between Chipper and Mac and you did a poor job to fill that need.

To Chipper, you are 38 years old. Stop acting like a dumb ass teenager by trying to prove people wrong. If you are hurt, stay off the fucking field. You are a veteran ball player, you must have heard far worst shit about you than you being old and need to take care of your body. Grow the fuck up.

To Lowe, FUCK YOU!

To Escobar, get you head in the fucking game.

To the rest of the team, I know you probably have done something wrong that got my goat but I will not call you out at this moment b/c it would be just petty.

I feel bad for KK, Huddy, and Hanson. They are pitching their asses off to only get let down by shitty run support.

And to Lowe once again, FUCK YOU!

Yes.

FUCK YOU D. LOWE!! GO DIE IN A FIRE!!

this is my profile picture for sbnation and my yahoo fantasy sports profile. You could say I have a macabre fascination with sports-related misery. This is too awful to really laugh about.

The only comfort I have is that if we do end up turning this season around, it’ll be a lot sweeter. Unfortunately, that possibility fades away just a little bit with each loss.

I <3 Wickman!

That’s the game when I truly felt sick to my stomach. I hate you so much Wickman.

I am sure looking forward to doing next week's

Power Rankings Recap… I’m sure it’s going to be great… You think the “powers that be” at SB Nation are still going think we’re in the top 11 teams? top 21 teams? top 31 teams?

“And in a MLB first, the Atlanta Braves were ranked #31 in the SB Nation Power Rankings this week after being surpassed by Skymuse’s Nephew’s PeeWee Team, which is actually pretty solid…”

The best idea since the powers that be decided to move a Milwaukee franchise to Atlanta.

I feel better that we can get this anger out of our system.

This team is making it awfully hard to be upbeat. Then I think back to how crushed I was in 1991, and how much shit I took after game 7 when I talked A LOT of shit after the 13-5 pounding the Braves delivered to the Twins in game 5, and this suddenly seems pretty mild in comparison.

Then when you add in 1992, 93, 96, 97, 98, 00, 01, 02, 03, 04, 05 (Go fuck a kite Chris Burke) this is like a hangnail being compared to open heart surgery.

You’re really, really, really stupid if you couldn’t tell that it was.

You’d be surprised at some of the horseshit that’s said on this blog.

Scott Coleman - April 30, 2010 reply

true

i apologize for my being such a dick. i feel like the braves terrible offense almost justifies it.

haha

no worries! And I figured it was sarcasm, but you never really know.

Maybe my dog died last Saturday

Because she knew what this week was going to bring…

THANKS BRAVES!

Dear Yunel, You’re idiotic and lazy plays are making it hard to defend you. Get your frosted tips out of your ass.
Dear Brian Jordan, Fuck you.
Dear Chipper, I’d rather have you good in 125 games than mediocre in 150.
Dear McLouth, WTF? I though you got your eyes fixed
Dear entire team, A Home Run would be nice every once in a while. A stolen base too

FUCK THIS SHIT. BLOW THE WHOLE TEAM UP

That was really enjoyable. Do we have to delete this? I can only imagine other fans from other blogs coming over here and reading this.

NOT IMPRESSED

LAST BUT NOT LEAST. GO FUCK YOURSELF TERRY PENDLETON. YOU ARE THE SHITTIEST HITTING COACH IN BASEBALL

Got prick written all over his face

Recursion; definition; See Recursion

after last years playoff push was over i had an empty feeling in my stomach. i knew we could be good this year and our offseason moves, in my opinion confirmed that. i spent my entire spring break in FL watching this team who was dominating. i was on this site every day in spring training counting down the days till the season started.

On April 5th I made a 11 hour round trip to see opening day and it was the most fucking awesome game i have ever seen. when we went to 8-5 I knew we were headed for greatness. I couldnt even do homework bc I was so pumped about watchin the game that night.

Now 9 days later look how that has all changed. I sit thru a daily load of shitty classes only to come back in time to see our asses get destroyed. Its fucking pathetic. My roomate is a Tigers fan from Michingan and he gets to see awesome offense nightly and its the fucking Tigers who suppose to finish in the basement of the AL central.

I couldnt wait to get home to Chattanooga and drive down and watch this team several times a week like i’ve done every year in the past but i feel like thats fucked now.

And the worst part about all is this team has the potential to be awesome. I know that from career stats and watching them dominate the grapefruit league. This is bullshit

that's pretty damn stupid to ban...

if someone asks what happens to a player… not everyone is glued to the braves current funk. you could just say it again and that would be that, not ban…. that’s ridiculous.

Are you telling a TC user to commit suicide? Because if you are, you’re a terrible human being and don’t deserve to use the internet. Or live.

I'm not shaving

until we break the streak… nor am I going to wear clothes.

That is all.

I'll participate in the shaving...

But I think I’d get kicked out of my finals tomorrow if I showed up naked…

I have a final monday, i was hoping we win by then ;P

You’re going to have a very long beard, then.

FlimtotheFlam - April 29, 2010 reply

These past games - one word comes to mind: Clusterfuck.

Sort of like THIS.

NCChopper - April 29, 2010 reply

Holy shit

That’s it EXACTLY…

J-Freak - April 30, 2010 reply

Dear Troy Glaus, please continue with the short stroke. Trying to kill everything like you were a week ago was not working out, but lately you have been hitting and getting on base, and I like that. Gotta work on that D though.

Dear Martin Prado, you are no Kelly Johnson, but I am damned glad that you are our second baseman. Start hitting again.

Dear Chipper Jones, WTF? Are you hurt or not? If yes, sit out. Fuck Brian Jordan and his younger than you but retired ass.

Dear Yunel Escobar, where did you go? I have not seen Yunel Escobar all season. Please come back.

Dear Brian McCann, please please please please learn to play some D.

Dear Jason Heyward, please sign an extension that lets us buy out your arbitration years and at least 1 FA year. Also, please get your plate discipline back.

Dear Nate McLouth, WTF?

Dear Matt Diaz, WTF?

Dear Melky Cabrera, WTF?

Dear Bobby Cox, WTF?

Dear Eric Hinske, Baller.

Dear TC Posters, I hope you get all of this shit out of your systems – especially the ridiculousness.

justincredubil02 - April 29, 2010 reply

You say ridiculous like its a bad thing

Well Shit! I was pissed last year with the season ending 6 game losing streak.

I’m not so pissed now for some reason, I have said it before and I’ll say it again I AM SORRY BOBBY CAME BACK THIS YEAR!! I said before, he cost this team a bunch of games last year. Can’t quantify it, but how many games did we lose just because of fucking Norton last year? How many games did we lose because Bobby wouldn’t pull a pitcher having a meltdown and how many games did we lose because he kept playing the same relievers till they were tired. Don’t even want to get into how many games did we lose because he left Frenchy, Schafer and KJ in the fucking games. HOW FUCKING MANY GAMES DID WE FUCKING LOSE? How many games are we going to lose this year because of the same shit? Not to mention Frank Wren and let’s get every cheap player we can! SHIT MOTHERFUCKER PISSSSSSS and WHAT THE FUCK DID I SAY THAT IS UNTRUE AND RIDICULOUS? Other than my poor attitude of course.

jimmontg - April 29, 2010 reply

How many games did we lose because of Bobby?

I’d be willing to bet that it was less than the MLB average for all other managers.

justincredubil02 - April 30, 2010 reply

I don’t think that’ll happen until you post Kelly Johnson’s stats for us one more time. We’re dying to know.
