    I dunno. Shouldn’t take long to research it win by win, though.

    Have I mentioned that I love the separate pages on the website?

    Hawks got beat by 43 points. Wow.

    They have, this is actually the first L. I’m going to stop trying to come up with clever questions now. Better luck tomorrow I hope.

    I don’t know if it’s because the Magic haven’t played in a while, and the Hawks played Sunday, or that the Hawks are the worst road team in the playoffs. My guess would be a little of both.

    But just before the dawn, I awake and find you gone.
    I can’t help it, I can’t help it, if I cry.
    I remember that you said goodbye….In Dreams.

    Braves suck AND blow.

    Steve Says:

    But, on the bright side, Bobby got that meaningless thing from Congress today.

  9. 84
    Bubdoubter Says:

    The government who can barely keep the most resourceful continent in history afloat awards the manager who drove a 3-HOF’er – rotation to one championship in 14 tries. I’d say there’s loads of meaning.

    Unconscious Says:

    Absolutely not meaningless, Steve…for shame! The man deserves to be recognized for his accomplished career.

    Separate pages not working for me. Multiple mouse clicks keeps me from reaching my full REM potential. Sknxxx, zzzZZZZ.

    Mara Raincloud Says:

    So I need tips from all you long time Braves fans who endured the 80′s. How do I cope? Not watching is as impossible as not hoping. Thoughts? Miserable existence.

    Mara Raincloud Says:

    Hey…don’t knock the multiple pages.

    Unconscious Says:

    Princess..in the ’80s, the Braves were awful, but Skip Caray was often entertaining, if a bit of an a**hole. We had Niekro, and his bro.

    Basically, you just have to love the Braves and endure the times that they suck. Put more water in the soup, Mama, there’s better times a comin’. Back to sleep.

    pppbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbttttttttttttttthhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!

    uuuuuunnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnngggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!

    Well, I’m proud to be an Atlanta Fan,
    Where at least I know WE SUCK.

    Good god, what a disaster.

    #%*#$*%**#*@(*@$*#*!

    To make all y’all happy and to wash the stink off of this evening, you should go do two things:

    1) Go here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-agl0pOQfs) and watch “Miracles” by Insane Clown Posse. The language is a little “blue” here, so know that.
    2) Then, go here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yi08uLTOGxs) and watch the SNL parody.

    The great part is I don’t know which one is funnier. You all may know all about this, but it was a great discovery for me today.

    Then I came home to “Atlanta Sports Night” at the Hammy Household.

    Then I cried.

    Then I poured Texas Pete’s in my eyes.

    I feel better.

    Bubdoubter Says:

    lol, I put on Dan Patrick to try and forget this mess, and he’s interviewing Mark Teixeira “why I like the Yankees.”

    :( <————— hates baseball.

    I just posted something and it says “your comment is awaiting moderation”.

    Me likey double entendre.

    What the hell has happened to my freaking baseball team?

    McCann is 50 points under his career average.
    Chipper is 100 points under his career average.

    Escobar: -85
    McLouth: -90
    Glaus: -20
    Diaz: -125
    Melky: -50

    Prado: +40

    This is impossible! Has this ever even happened in baseball history? I mean, only one of these guys is over 35 years old! Only 2 of them are over 30! FIVE baseball players in the MIDDLE OF THEIR PRIME dropping off a cliff at the same time.

    That’s an average of SIXTY points PER PLAYER under average, even with Prado included in the math.

    I’ve just never heard of anything like this. Freaking sucks.

    I thought I’d never seen anything like it before when it happened to Andruw.
    Then when it happened to Frenchy, I was like, wow, we get TWO of these this close to each other?
    Then when it happened to Kelly…

    But THE WHOLE FREAKING TEAM MINUS TWO PLAYERS???????? I know it’s only a month – and the above players struggled for 1 to several years, but DANG, the WHOLE FLIPPIN’ TEAM???

    Curtaholic Says:

    Let’s see if we can come up with a common denominator there……hmmmm. It’s like the transitive property.

    Bobby Cox + Terry Pendleton = Gapping holes(squared)

    In all fairness to this team – this is nothing like the 80s. This team has talent that isn’t being reached. Those teams were awful. Their rookies never panned out, their free agent signings were busts, their best players got hurt, Bobby Cox was their manager.

    Wait a minute………………….

    Hamward Spiral Says:

    It’s funny because it’s true, Curtis!

    When does the Atlanta Dream’s season begin?

  21. 96
    Anne Says:

    You know who would make a great addition to the Braves (for the next two games)? Teddy Roosevelt from The Running of the Presidents there at the Nats park. He never wins, either.

  22. 97
    Mara Raincloud Says:

    Anne, too funny. Poor Teddy. Surely something has to give soon. They can’t ALL struggle this badly through the entire season. I want to see Infante or anybody better than Cabrera behind Hey Hey Hey.

  23. 98
    Steve Says:

    And don’t look now, but over the past games, Prado is 9 – 40. A .225 BA.

  24. 99
    Steve Says:

    Sorry – that should read, past *10* games.

    Curtaholic Says:

    Ham, bad news on that front too…..
