    I was wrong because I could foresee no scenario in which we didn't win 75 games. I thought Dansby would continue his end of season streak from last year and live up to the press clippings as an overall #1 pick. I didn't think Colon would be hot garbage and, finally, I thought Kemp would keep his weight off and be one of the best cleanup hitters in the league. From now on, I'll believe win we'll reach that modest 75 win total after we actually do it.

    I thought the team's GM wouldn't resign in disgrace.

    I thought the front office had at least half a clue, even if a bit short of a full clue.

    I thought moving to the suburbs was supposed to enhance the franchise.

    Nothing. I said they'd be a low 70-win team at best. Right on.

    I thought the Braves draft and international strategies were relatively clever, but looks like they were just cheating to make things turn out as well as they did.

    Sure it did. Moved on up from regular petty thefts and the like around Turner Field to high dollar, WorldCom style white collar crime in Cobb. Enhancement.

    I predicted Sheff and CLV would finally met and have a beer together, thus becoming life long friends. I don't think that happened.
