Come on. I see nothing wrong with AG1's post. Except for he didn't finish the sentence. Truth hurts I guess.

Once again in no way do I condone hitting women. Unless its CCC.

...anyways, the Mariners won again yesterday with Washburn's spectacular pitching!

My prediction: Braves vs Mariners World Series, and the M's take it in four! :D

My prediction: You'll be in rehab before that happens.

I am a Cubs fan and I still have a hard time predicting them to make the World Series. Their lineup gets shut down in the playoffs. My prediction is Mets/Phillies vs. Yankees. Ah I hate the Yankees!

M's looked good yesterday. Solid performance by Washburn and Rob Johnson. I think they'll take the series against Oakland. Hopefully Rowland-Smith will pick up where he left off last year. He finished solid after being moved in to the starting rotation last year.

Does anybody happen to know why they don't show the Braves on TBS anymore?

Because they came to their senses.

It had something to do with the ownership and not renewing their contract.

It sucks ass that I cant watch every game anymore.

they have their own network called like sunshine sports (I'm not sure which one it is exactly). TBS picked up sunday mlb games along with their rights to playoff series. Last year it was a heavy dose of blue jays and red sox games

It looks like Alpha misses the days of Ted Turner owning the Braves and WTBS. You commie! :wink:

I didn't even watch a lot of games, I just expected a Braves game to always be on TBS. Now that they're not, it's like Bizarro World or something where nothing is as it should be.

Turner knew what the people wanted to watch, I would gladly have him back if my Braves were on TBS again.

He could keep the bull pen off air if he wanted to, they are the worst group in baseball history.

This reminds me of a classic Ted Turner quote way back when TBS (then WTBS) begain airing all of the Braves games, long before they were little more than a yearly last-place finisher. A reporter asked Ted, "So, why do you believe that viewers in places like Billings, Montana will want to watch Biff Pocoroba try to throw out a runner stealilng second?". Ted's reply: "To see if he'll ever GET one!!!".

Pocoroba was NO Bruce Benedict.

He did have a lot of hype though.

Funny stuff, GinWa..............you feeling ok?
