Armando Benitez in usual fashion gave up the tying run and the Mets eventaully lost the game. Then they get shelled 9-2 in the second of the doubleheader. God dammit. The Braves make the Mets their bitches year after year and I will shut up for the rest of the season. F*in Benitez. . . .
The Braves are September's Team until they prove otherwise. Ten straight division titles and only one World Championship puts them this close to being the Buffalo Bills of baseball. I want 'em to win, but I won't hold my breath.
reasons why the yankees rule top ten why yankees own the atlanta braves 10. Starting pitching 9. Bench 8. Coaching 7. Defense 6. Offense 5. Bunting 4. The girls that come to yankee stadium are a lot hotter 3. Enrique Wilson...the quintessential utility infielder 2. We actually get past the first round 1. Willie Randolph...the greatest 3rd base coach
Re: reasons why the yankees rule let's see......where to start..... 10. I believe the Braves' bullpen OWNS the f-ing Yankees any and everygame. The Braves have the best bullpen in MLB right now. 9. Okay, so Steinbrenner buys up all these great players from every other team so no one else can have them and sits them on the bench. GREAT strategy, that does you a lot of good. 8. I'll leave that one alone, but I will say this, Bobby Cox holds his own. 7.Braves have DEFENSE 6.Braves definately have OFFENSE 5. I find it hard to believe that any A.L. team has better bunting than an N.L. team. 3. Chipper Jones ring a bell??? 2. refer back to no. 9 1. And he is the best reason why the Yankees own the Atlanta Braves, how? I have yet to run into very many people who still like the Yankees. End of Story.
I look at it this way. Since 1995 the Braves have one World title while the Yankees have four, including two off the Bravos in '96 and '99. One more: Yankees George Costanza Bravos Jane Fonda.
"4. The girls that come to yankee stadium are a lot hotter" they may be hotter then the girls that come to the stadium but as a whole the southern chicks are hot
I've made this observation, the female Yankee fans while hot, know absolutely nothing about baseball. They just jump on the bandwagon. The female Mets fans while ugly, know about the game. Which is worse, which is better? Ahh, I dream of the day I run into a hot Mets fan who knows what she's talkin about. As for southern chicks, I was down in Atlanta one time and man are they fine.
Braves fans shuld pray Smoltz's arm doesn't fall off. 40 saves at this point is damn impressive but he's had arm trouble in the past.
I dunno, the guy doesn't need to go all nine anymore. I find it amazing how he throws 98 consistently even after his arm problems.
