    Atlanta Bravest?

    https://www.heraldsun.com/sports/article304266981.html Seems pretty corny. But if the FO ever rolled over and gave in to this rename BS, then this would get my vote as a replacement.

    Looking for Tickets for Twins series, 4-18

    I'm turning the big 4-0 on 4/19. So the wife has asked what I wanted to do to celebrate. Naturally I said I wanted to do a Braves game, so she told me to look up some tickets and she would buy them We are looking to go down and watch them on Friday night 4/18 since it's Easter weekend. I was...

    2028 Field

    In the spirit of the 2024 Field thread (and as a thread of hope for our recently depressed Dem and left leaning posters), dark and dreary nights are a great time to look forward to the dawn. Who do we think runs? Harris is done as a politician. She might go back to Cali and get back involved in...

    Aurora Borealis

    Anyone check it out tonight? It was one of the most beautiful things I've personally seen. Checked a bucket list item off my list and didn't even have to leave my driveway. My pictures weren't the greatest as I have a 4 year old Google phone, but I'll post them if I can.

    Working Out Our New Forum Name

    Seems like we constantly have to remind the people in charge to rename this forum every year. It's getting ridiculous. Being an election year, I think it's even more of a reason to drain the swamp here and find new leadership. Anyways, throw out your best ideas and let's get a head start for...

    Will Sam Hilliard be The Truth in 2023?

    It's hard to be overly excited or disappointed in ST numbers, but he's been a beast all spring. Plays great defense and hits the ball hard everywhere. I know in 2022 he was abysmal, but I think I read where he was in the 93rd percentile for EV, while lowering his K rate and increasing his BB...

    Openning day/weekend

    Anyone going and want to meet for a drink? I didn't have plans initially, but now I do. Just won 2 tix for the Saturday night game and $200 from ESPN Chattanooga. Pretty pumped. No idea, where the tix are at, but don't really care at this point. Just excited to go to a game. The $200 will...

    Austin Riley Love Thread

    The Man. The Myth. The Legend. He had most of us ready to give up on him coming into the season (including me). And he didn't really look any better to start the season with a .553 OPS on April 20th. Not counting today, we has a slash line of .299/.370/.559 in his 416 PA's since April 20th...

    Post your top prospect list

    Slow day at the office so I've been trying to look for updated mid-season prospect lists and I'm not finding much. So I'm curious to see what anyone in here that follows the minors closely is thinking. No limit on the amount of prospects you'd like to list. I'll post mine first. I have...

    Stock Market Talk

    So I've been sucked into the world of the stock market. I'm still new to game, but I really enjoy it so far. Lost a bit of money overall the last week or so, but most of my portfolio is built on strong brands that are long plays after the pandemic ends. What are your stocks currently...

    New stat: Thanks efficiency

    Slow morning, so I got a new stat for the board. Thanks efficiency rating. It's based on how many Thanks Given vs how many Thanks Received. Goal being to keep it about as close to a 1/1 ratio as possible. I've been very efficient, with a rating of .933, not too prudish, but definitely not a...

    Do you bench Markakis for Game 2?

    He was a total **** show in game 1. Even his double should have been an out if Goldy wasn't holding the runner. Then he gets caught with his pants down and Fowler goes from 1st to 3rd on a single that Markakis fielded before Fowler was even at 2b. Also looked like a buffoon laying out on that...

    Do you bench Donaldson for Game 2?

    Made a bonehead base-running move on the Markakis double. Should have scored pretty easily. Also hit into a DP in a critical time in the game. Grounded out weakly to 2b with the game on the line in the 9th. His ****ck is getting old. edit: you really can't say shtick or did I mispell it?

    1st Trip to NYC

    So I'm taking the wife to NYC at the end of the month for her 30th bday. It's the 1st time either of us have been to the Big Apple. We are putting together an itinerary for a 4 night stay. Anyone have any suggestions on things to do, when to do them, or places to eat? I'll be buying a...
