Many new additions to the 1966 Braves.

I haven't been self-promoting the 1966 Braves series except on Twiitter, but I urge everyone to take a look at the amazing career of Bill Adair. Only a small part of the 1966 team, he was perhaps the greatest "company man" ever. He managed minor league teams for the Boston Braves, Milwaukee Braves and Atlanta Braves; he managed the final Atlanta Crackers team ever; he won a total of nine minor league pennants. His major league record: 4-6. Like Aaron, a Mobile native and a Braves lifer until he was no longer wanted -- then he became one of baseball's best scout.

Rico, I've noticed you tweet to @ BravesFansChop (Chop Country) a great deal ... who is that from here?

Supposedly, that's a link to this site that people can click on and find Chop country. If it isn't let me know.

The 1966 Braves overview will be complete this week. About a half-dozen left to enter, including this Aaron guy. Proud of the work; can't believe it couldn't find an audience here. Live and learn; I guess to most of you guys the Good Old Days are when Pat Corrales and Bobby Cox ran the dugout.

A few more added Saturday a.m.

I am grateful for all of the work you did with this, rico.

You're rightfully proud. I'm with buck75. I don't have much of a connection to the Milwaukee Braves. I grew up watching the 80s Braves, and though I was a baseball history nut as a kid, the 60s were kind of a dead zone for me.
