Probably not a big deal in the grand scheme of things, but I'll let you guys and gals kick it around:
"We play the Braves nine more times. This ---- ain't over"

Poor guy. It will be over before he knows it. Just needs to hang in there a little longer. I am sure it is excruciating.

It isnt over, but its getting awfully close.
It's not over. But unless the rest of his team learns how to hit then it might as well be.

Hopefuly the Braves players have the same attitude. Don't want them letting up, and they shouldn't until they've clinched.
Its not over but they almost have to win all 9 games. Not happening.

Braves are 62-45.
Nats are 52-56.
If the Braves play around .500 and go 28-27 from here on, they'll finish 90-72.
Nats would have to go 38-16 to match that.
Braves are up 10.5 with nine to go against the Nats, meaning every time they don't beat us, that win has to be made up somewhere else with another Braves loss for each win.
It certainly isn't over, but it is getting close. Braves need to really step on the gas this coming road trip.

Over or not, those 9 games are going to be f*cking intense.
If the Braves just play 500 baseball they are going to win this division.

Keep in mind that we have collapsed and blew big leads before.
Let's stay focused. We are up by 10, let's try and win by 20. More importantly let's switch our focus and go for the best record in the NL
Braves1976 (07-31-2013), bravesnumberone (07-31-2013), CrimsonCowboy (07-31-2013), CyYoung31 (07-31-2013), Heyward (07-31-2013), Javyz1fan (08-01-2013), jpx7 (07-31-2013), Krovahn (07-31-2013), Mrs. Meta (07-31-2013), Prikichi (07-31-2013), thethe (07-31-2013), VirginiaBrave (07-31-2013)
This. We just need to focus on winning series, and we'll be fine.
Absolutely. The Braves know it's not over because of 2011, not because of what Bryce Harper says.
Chopping With The Braves And Rolling With The Tide
Its over barring some epic collapse like a couple years ago. That likely doesn't happen again.
LOL, the Nationals are some kind of terrible.
I still find it hard to believe that they will finish below .500 this year though. I think they may make a push for that final WC spot, but it will be too little too late.
If anyone's got the talent to go on a Dodgers-like run, it's probably the Nats. But every time it's looked like they might this year, it's been quickly erased. And they didn't pick up anyone at the deadline, so it's hard to see them magically turning a light on.
Don't get the big deal, what's he supposed to say?
"Yeah, we give up, we suck"
Really?

We need a killer mentaility and need to play .600 ball the rest of the year
Runnin (07-31-2013)
Did two years ago not teach you anything? It's far from close to being over. We've seen the Braves blow an 8 game lead in one month so we surely can blow a 10 game lead in 2 months. I'm not saying it's likely but let's not get ahead of ourselves.
Runnin (07-31-2013)
Yes.
If he says otherwise he's a trouble-making punk.
