You are entitled to your opinion, and alot of what you say has merit. But every post degenerates into the same thing. I think they can win 10 straight and it won’t change at all.

It may have started to be about their performance, but it is something entirely different now.

“I found myself getting very emotional, thinking about Thurman, Catfish, Reggie, Lou and all the others and all the winning we did here. We won because we played smart. We played the game right. We hustled. We were accountable to each other and, yeah, we even fought sometimes.”

Funny, that reverential litany of Skankees as examples for teh Mets by Willie makes me emotional too – well, maybe not emotional….is nauseous an emotion?

I can’t believe I am agreeing with the ATL troll, but they have to find their own intensity, it can’t matter anymore who/where they play. They should be beyond that now if they truly learned anything from past failure, which is what they have stated publicly.

The Braves stink, although they play well at home. They are on the 162 game schedule, that should be all the motivation they need.

And you are right, I don’t think the Braves are up for the challenge, either…you had a real nice run, it is, and has been, over.

On this we agree. Although I’d expand that statement to all Fox entities, especially Fox News.

Hey, don’t let baseball get in the way of a good “fire willie” rant.

No, I’m expressing my opinion. Didn’t know I wasn’t allowed to do that.

Funny, Glavine has ben more effective against righties (.263 BA) than lefties (.323 BA) so far this year.

Of note, Church is only 1-12 lifetime against him.

Wright and Reyes have never faced him. Degado, .588 with 0 homers.

how is this thread (the most important topic of the day) get 40 posts, and one that points out that ‘Willie is a black manager” is just went above the Mendoza line?

That is preposterous.
