Chopping With The Braves And Rolling With The Tide
It's actually surprising the Dodgers are allowed to do that. We'll, not the Dodgers. They're a sacred cow. If the Braves tried that we'd be hit with massive fines and have draft picks takeb away. Professional sports are serious about uniforms.
Gtfo Joe. I don't care if guys go topless in BP, it's nunya business.
What makes it even worse is some are wearing CANCER AWARENESS shirts. Send Joe to the old folks home.
Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.

Joe is desperately grasping at the time when his "intellect" was relevant. Like most dumb people, he is offended by the idea that he isn't very bright, and lashes out whenever he can.
I don't expect him to be announcing Braves games too much longer.

Joe Simpson's entire life seems to be spent casting about for reasons to be indignant about something.

I have to agree that his time in the Braves booth may be almost at an end. I forgot about how he criticized the organist at SunTrust Park last year.
I haven’t been as hard on Joe as many Braves fans have, but after tonight, I’m ready for him to step aside. His rant made the Braves look bad tonight. Just about ready for Jeff Francoeur to take Simpson’s place.

I didn't see the Cancer shirts, they are excused obviously but he has a point about the Dodgers' uniform being The Holy Grail and they have warmups made with their number on it for a reason. Joe is not some average Joe on the subject, he was raised a Dodger and has the right to his opinion that LA looked like a Pony League team taking batting practice!
Utley’s shirt.

Talk about making a mountain out of a mole hill. And old school announcer fir a team the Dodgers play two series a year didn't like their BP attire. So what? Why does that matter?
All the Dodgers need to care about is whether MLB allows it.

so over the old people in and around baseball these days
reminds me of how much i hate "the braves way" of the good old boy gang that still haunts the franchise on how to do things

I love how the article brought up the hours long "weather delay" in Washington last season but convieantly left out it didn't rain a drop.
Joe this is a freaking batting practice session in T-Shirts. Be honest, if you were a fan and you had walked in for BP today, would you have noticed that? If you noticed, would you have given a crap? Its almost beyond belief that people care about this **** and we have a grown man complaining about BP fashion. It is possibly the most pedantic thing that I've ever heard.
I bet Joe almost had an aneurysm in '77 when his teammates invented the high five. Maybe that is what led to his career OPS of .607... Glenn Burke and Dusty Baker gave the man brain damage with their fancy newfangled hand slaps.
