GDT #47: 5/23/14 Rockies @ Braves (Floyd)

Big time win.

I've got a serious question and I want y'all to answer seriously...

Does Brian Jordan have a fckn speech impediment?
 
I actually like Brian Jordan but he really needs to "up his game" in front of the camera.

Fredi punted on the Chris Johnson question saying that CJ will address the media himself.
 
CJ, did it ever occur to you that you don't have to swing at every single low and outside pitch? Idk why anyone would throw you anything else.
 
Evidently CJ threw a tantrum after striking out in his first AB. It also appears his tirade endangered other people, his teammates took exception to it, and Fredi benched him.

I appreciate fire in a player and I've often wished that Braves players showed more of it. That said, CJ needs to grow up and fix his immature behavior--which were all points he readily admitted in the post game interview.
 
I don't care...I love CJ's passion...I love when a player gets mad at himself when he does not succeed...Holds himself accountable...Dan strikes out in a big spot and gets mad at the pitcher and gracefully walks back to the hell hole

Yea that is what it sounds like happened. Good that he was honest about it as usual, but he needs to stop being such a hot head.

At least the SS crew has figured out how to put makeup on a black person, at long last. He looked like Sammy Sosa/Michael Jackson for most of last year.
 
Some quotes from Chris Johnson (from Twitter):

David O'Brien ‏@ajcbraves 14m
Chris Johnson apologized to team after the game for a tantrum he acknowledged throwing after strikeout. Once again let emotions get to him

Kevin McAlpin ‏@KevinMcAlpin 14m
Chris Johnson says he let his emotions get the best of him. Understood Fredi removing him from the game. Apologized to team after.

David O'Brien ‏@ajcbraves 12m
Johnson: "I let my emotions get the best of me tonight in the tunnel and blew up a little bit and it’s dangerous to do it."

Kevin McAlpin ‏@KevinMcAlpin 7m
Johnson: "I play with a lot of passion, every single pitch, every single at bat, I hold with high regard"

Kevin McAlpin ‏@KevinMcAlpin 6m
Johnson: "when things don't go well, thats kind of my downfall. That's one of the biggest parts of my game that I've got to try to work on"

Kevin McAlpin ‏@KevinMcAlpin 5m
Johnson: "This has to be it for me. It'll get to a point, if it happens again, where people aren't going to believe I'm truly sorry"
 
Do not **** with Fredi Gonzalez. He will absolutely Reynes of Castamere your ass if you defy him.

Just ask Chris Johnson and Fielden Culbreth. Assuming you can find the pieces of their corpses.
