    Top ten Braves Prospects......................................... ............period..

    Who you got? Apparently Albies is currently not a prospect, but I'm curious where folks would rank him if he was still a prospect, so for the purpose of this thread assume that he's still a prospect: 1) Albies 2) Acuna 3) Gohara 4) Soroka 5) Allard 6) Wright 7) Anderson 8) Waters 9)...

    I'm not a huge Alex Anthopoulos fan so far.

    I can't be the only one. Seems like he's mostly hype to this point. I think we did the same thing with Coppolella in presenting him as a stat genius that we're doing with AA, and yet JC is literally banned from baseball. People seem to love AA on this board but he really hasn't done anything...

    Hot takes...

    Let's hear your hot takes. Here are mine. Almost all Hollywood actors are highly overrated in regards to acting. If you compared the actual acting ability of the average Hollywood actor to the average athletic ability of sport athletes, I think Hollywood actors would be the equivalent of high...

    Coppy should be considered for executive of the year award.

    If by this year it means after the 2016 WS till the end of the 2017 WS. Let's take a look at his best acquisitions. - Matt Adams - We traded a potential light hitting DH for a guy who has put up a .900 plus OPS. - Brandon Phillips - He's quietly having one of his best seasons and we gave up...

    Political safe space thread.

    I have an interesting idea. Let's make a thread where any political thought isn't taboo and sarcasm is shunned. My goal with this thread is that any reasonable hypothesis is taken seriously and any comments trying to score points are ignored and hopefully deleted by mods. The goal of this thread...

    Cruz for Supreme court...

    Makes a lot of sense. Virtually every senator hates him and wants him out of the senate. Confirmation should be a breeze.

    VP debate

    Pence winning the debate so far, imo. Not surprising. Will have no effect on the election though.

    Five Reasons leftists should vote Trump:

    1) He's a social liberal. He's not religious. He's against the North Carolina bathroom law. He doesn't care about abortion. He's pro gay marriage, etc. 2) He's mostly to the left economically. He's more for fair trade than free trade. He believes in the progressive tax and wants to close...

    Oprah as a third party candidate...

    I've heard her name thrown about. I actually think this would be an interesting third party candidate. I think she could potentially take a huge chunk of the Hillary voting base and if she plays it right take a nice chunk of the outsider candidate and moderate republican vote. She could...

    Am I the only one that was fine with TARP?

    I hear both sides of the political aisle keep talking about how horrible it was, but is there evidence that it didn't work? We avoided a depression. I just don't think there is any evidence that it would have been a smarter decision to just let the banks fail. Maybe that will change later in...

    Why are the intellectual liberals so accepting of Sanders?

    Sanders is basically the Trump of the left. Trump makes wild statements that have no real support of those who are more educated. Yet Sanders makes similar statements and the more educated on the left are kind of rolling with it. So why is this the case? It's fascinating to me.

    Sanders is a better candidate than Clinton

    I said it. I still believe Sanders has no chance to win the dem nomination, but I now believe he has a better chance to win the general nomination. I think it's a big mistake for folks like goldfly to become a wussy and essentially hand the nomination to Hillary. I think Bernie is in a...

    Top 3 and Bottom 3 Hart/Coppolella moves.

    Bottom 3: 3: Gattis for Folty, Ruiz and whatever. Just not a big believer in Folty. The guy has great stuff but I just get the feel that he won't put it together. Meh on Ruiz. A position of need, but the chances of him succeeding seem unlikely. The good news is that I thought Gattis was...
