    Welcome to the '80s boys...

    or as close as we get. I applaud the statement made by the empty stadium.

    You may have been right, but don't troll.

    We have may have a lost season on our hands, but this is far from the lost cause that was the '80's.

    Still good to see the fanbase respond by not showing up just like the '80s. You can hear it in the voices of the team media BJ and Joe especially this is train wreck.

    No. They were just bad. Especially the pitchers.

    The 80's teams were bad just for the sake of being bad. This years team can only look to being young, and everything being Fredi's fault.

    If the NL had the DH, we'd still have Chipper until he turned like 52. Man I miss that guy.

    Phil Niekro's last game summed up the 80's. He really didn't pitch that badly, but then Chuck Tanner brings in Chuck Cary who promptly gives up a grand slam to candy Maldonado. Exit stadium.

    Right, but we can still realistically hope that this season is an aberration. Changes need to be made though.
