    I know that this is supposed to be a positivity thread, but this is my contribution toward breaking the curse. The only thing I love more than watching the Braves is coming here and bull****ting with all of you. I’m willing to sacrifice this half of my dearest baseball hobby to see a playoff series win tomorrow for the Braves. You said anything goes, right?

    If by some miracle the Braves do manage to win, just remember who died for your sins.

    It's all part of the plan. Hosting game 5 just gives the Braves extra revenue. When the Nats beat the LA we will then have homefield again and reap in all that extra money as well.

    I actually did think of the extra revenue a game like this would generate. Must be pretty significant.

    At least two extra games in the NLCS > one extra game in the NLDS.

    You’re assuming you’re getting an NLCS if you throw game 4.

    I am willing to take one for the team and sell my soul to the devil. Does anyone have Jeff Sessions phone number?

    So our options are Cy quits the board forever if we win and you suck your own dick if we lose. Damn, I don't know who to root for now...

    Its not that it's just a curse it is the crazy mess that has happened.

    '96 Leyritz and blowing a big lead as part of that.

    '97 Eric Gregg

    '98 Danny Bautista in lf

    2005 marathon in Houston

    2012 Chipper's bad throw and Holbrook

    There has been some really some crazy things happen. After thinking about it maybe Larussa put the whammy on us when he left town after we recovered from down 3-1 in 1996.

    xBA on the Cards 33 hits is .625

    xBA on the Braves 32 hits is .608

    Seems to me the Braves have gotten more lucky hits than the Cards, so be careful wishing for the luck to change.
