Just kidding Kuhlmann, I agree with you on the Braves. People don't follow them much during the regular season because they expect them to get to the postseason. People don't follow them much during the postseason because they expect them to lose the first round. I thought this year was different due to all the younger players on the team, although they may not have the experience, they should have that "hunger". Chipper's BA in the first 3 games still remains a Blutarsky-like 0.0

No Beer tonite! just lol at the braves! they are a non postseason winning team! sorry if your a fan but 1 in 13 or 14 years would make me crazy!
And last I checked...atlanta wasn't eliminated?
Clemens will BE ROCKED tommorow.
watch
Record in Division playoffs 6-3
Record in League Championship series 5-4
Not exactly getting crushed.
have to do to win! Smoltz is a beast!

Next year this team will be dimantled and hopefully we'll see the last of the 2nd highest most overhyped, over-rated manager in baseball history (Bobby Cox), who is right behind Mr. 200 Million Joe Torre.

<< <i>That will end tonight, and Smoltz will go back to work on that wonderful golf game of his. As well, all we ever hear about is 13 straight division titles--sorry, but I'm here to set the record straight. The Montreal Expos were CRUSHING the Braves in 94, so they've actually only won 10 straight--94 goes to the Spos.

I completely agree. The '94 Expos were six up and a far superior team. It was a travesty that MLB didn't officially award division champions.

An Expos fan with a Vlad avatar - I understand your bitterness, but don't take it out on the Braves. This team was expected to only win 86.5 games this year and bow down to the Phillies . Regardless of what happens tonight, they did better than expected.

The braves are chokers?
Coming from a mets fan, well I just find that mildly amusing, at best. Talk about choking...they are always going to be the red-headed stepchild of the yanks, and bobby cox is arguably the greatest manager of this or any other era. What he's been able to do with so little for so long is beyond amazing. The braves were projected to lose what, 90 games this year? Yet they bury the NL east (and your lowly mets) and cruise to the title.
Yes they've won 'just' one world series during this amazing run...however, look at teams like the red sox, cubs, etc....who haven't won in how long? And you call the braves choke artists?
As always, proving joestalin wrong one post at a time.
yes
yes
and yes does that answer your questions!! go cry somewhere else! the atlanta braves have one ring the mets have 2! eat it!
Cornholio, I am bitter, but I'm also realisitic. I've been to Montreal 3 or 4 times and it's not easy to get to the big O, it's out really in the middle of nowhere. Once it was official that there was no downtown stadium to be built it was only a matter of time that this would happen. Then we lost Vlad last year because of another boneheaded move on the part of Selig--this guy should NOT be in charge! There is no doubt in my mind the Spos have new owners if they still had Vlad. That being said, the Braves really have been the best of the worst! Honestly, a poor division for the most part for the better part of the last 10 years, they've gotten in and done nothing the majority of the time. Yes, they've made it to the big time a few times, but with only 1 championship to show for it--what is that? I'm just tired of people talking about them when the expansion Marlins have won twice in half the time out of the same division I mean come on! Cox was laughed out of Toronto in the late 80's when everybody in the know agreed this guy could not manage. Now all of a sudden he's a genuis? I mean every year they're top 5 in payroll in a poor division and they do NOTHING when it comes to the playoffs. You have to wonder if the Braves had a real coach like Alou how many championships they would have won?

Wether you are paying your players with American dollars or Canadian dollars, it is still the same bad team. Enjoy
battling the Mets for last place!
