    The Bowman Shrine

    I have reason to believe that there needs to be a place to collect tweets, pictures, videos, quotes and other memorabilia. This will provide his devotees a convenient place to gather for fellowship and worship. I will kick off with a modest recent contribution.

    After spending the offseason knowing the Braves were trying to trade him, Chris Johnson has spent the past few months gaining reason to believe he is no longer wanted in Atlanta.

    Over the break I read two random articles from the feed on the braves mlb site. Caught "reason to believe" in both of them and didn't even need to look at the byline.

    I suggest we adopt "Braves Baseball: Reason to Believe" as our official 2016-17 motto.

    I think the thread with him sweating needs to be merged here. Probably the funniest thing I've seen in a long time.

    I like that. There is something so uplifting and pure about it. I know I have reason to believe.

    Btw, when are the Braves going to get some real beat writers? Between Bowman and DOB we must have the worst in baseball.

    Oh Jeez. Not even close. Please knock on wood or something because if there ever a case of being careful what you wished for....

    DOB is a competent, fair-to-middling reporter with a lot of non-sports interests that some of us find entertaining. Then you have Bowman.

    DOB can be entertaining at times but his constant fighting and arguing with his followers makes him look like a real douchebag. To say he's unprofessional is an understatement.

    The fighting would even be OK if he didn't constantly choose the stupidest tweets to argue with and mock.

    I like reading DOB's stuff. IMO his tweets are that way to try to get folks to "think twice, tweet once." It's his version of Skip Caray's "slugging percentage" reply.

    ALERT: There is certainly reason to believe Coppolella will be considered a candidate for the vacant GM spots with the Brewers and Angels, and the one that soon could open up with the Mariners.

    Hope Coppy sees through to this rebuild. I think this will just give Coppy a nice extension to keep him kind of like we did Wren before JS retired when we knew Wren was being groomed.
