    Braves Players Disrespect Chipper Jones

    Not really. They would definitely match up better against the A's the Rays the Pirates and the Cardinals (all this is based off my eye test from watching games this season) That isn't to say that they hold an edge over those teams, only that pitching differential isn't overwhelmingly against...

    Braves Players Disrespect Chipper Jones

    First of all this has nothing to do with my "level of fandom." It has to do with observations from watching baseball this past season. The Dodgers are a tough pitching matchup for anyone. I don't disagree at all that the Braves weren't well set up in the pitching department. I don't think...

    Braves Players Disrespect Chipper Jones

    The scenario you suggest is the definition of an intentional slight. It is a spiteful action in return for a perceived insult. Had it been a joke they would have publicized that on the field after the pitch by running out to him, etc. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Freedom Card Board...

    Braves Players Disrespect Chipper Jones

    Not against the cardinals or pirates, or the Rays. So its about a 50/50 split really. The dodgers just happen to have been a really bad matchup pitching wise. But the main point of that comment was Atlanta's playoff curse. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Freedom Card Board mobile app

    Braves Players Disrespect Chipper Jones

    Atlanta is cursed when it comes to playoffs. All of Atlanta's teams. But the Braves were overmatched in the pitching department against the Dodgers. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Freedom Card Board mobile app

    World Series Prediction Thread

    If you don't follow baseball, you don't hear about baseball names. I hate basketball, despise it. But I know major players. Not many who don't follow baseball know the big names. Baseball isn't getting its message across to the younger generations. Its an aging sport. I'm not ripping the...

    World Series Prediction Thread

    Just my opinion, and In am not a marketing guy or otherwise a genius, but here is Baseball's challenge as I see it: Baseball's problem is a scarcity thing. Every team plays 162 games a year, 190 if they run deep into the playoffs. When games are played daily and tickets are still expensive...

    Honestly, Bennett looked more like an Achilles to me. Which is just as bad. I did not handle that game very well. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Freedom Card Board mobile app

    2013 College Football Thread

    Sure they did. Right call got made. And Georgia survived. The only way they got robbed is if it was a bad call. You forget that Georgia drove the length of the field to tie it and they lost 3 very key skills players. Tennessee in no way got robbed. Georgia overcame a multitude of...

    Josh Freeman RELEASED!!

    Only one individual in the NFL has more turnovers than Freeman since entering the league in 09. That someone is Mark Sanchez last I heard. Author of the butt fumble He's average on a good day. Someone will pick him up, but he is not a starter IMO. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Freedom Card...

    Now that I think about it, Rays A's would be even worse. A fan doesn't have to care. But then league has to make money or it won't be able to continue. From where I sit Baseball has been losing ground to other sports for years and nothing looks likely to change that. Sent from my DROID...

    It was a reply fail. Was trying to to reply to the post you answered and goofed royally. But WAR doesn't include RBIs unless the formula has changed. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Freedom Card Board mobile app

    Declaration of War on WAR

    Great point. WAR is a good tool for a player's baseline contributions, in a bubble without considering situational play. It should not be overused. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Freedom Card Board mobile app
