People are just upset we lost. It may be irrational but it's natural to be impulsively emotional. Id rather have people that whine that still contribute whether sarcasm humor or intelligent discussion half the time than having a blank message board with one person posting every other day.

I don't want a universal agreement board. That's not what a discussion is about. We have a cast of characters here. I get into it with sturg and kgcrew in the politics forum but we're United on cheering for braves. I find gilesfans love of two teams to be weird but he does contribute good discussion too.

If I wanted a board where everybody has to agree and there's no dissent then I'd model it after scout.

So you think it is irrational to think Fredi messed up by not putting the hottest baseball player in the world in a scoreless game with the go ahead run on 2nd?

Very debateable Gattis is the hottest player in baseball.

Again, if we scored 1-2 runs from innings 1-7, it wouldnt of came down to that.

If he didn't put in Gattis, I have very good reason to believe he wanted Gattis to rest.

Gattis is good at polishing Wood. His abilities were wasted yesterday. Fredi needs to take a Pledge to never let him gather dust like that again.

At the least he should call in Carpenter on days when Gattis is not busy with Wood.
