Braves 2022 regular season - going for a repeat

[Tater]

Rough week. I expect the braves to respond

I don't. The Braves puffed their record on weak teams (as they should take care of business) but they struggle against better teams. I think the Phillies finish ahead of them and are the bigger threat to the division.

But hey, the Braves could have a few guys get hot again at the right time and win another ring. The beauty of baseball. People can disparage a ring all they want (and you might take what I just said of their ring as an insult) but it isn't. It shows that that can get it done. I just don't see it for the Braves this year. They are set up better to cycle in to the top of the division again once this Mets run ends in 2-3 years, depending on pitching. Right now they're cycling out and dealing with a top 2 team in baseball.

It's telling that you find it being an unlikeable jerk when it's not on "your team"

Do you not like the message or is it actually that you don't like the substance of the message and thus try to go for a character assassination instead.

Neither really. It has nothing to do with "my team" and everything to do with your lack of character (which I have observed over time based on your own actions). Here are some examples below, all of which make your question hilariously ironic. I could go on and on, but I don't have the time or the desire.

Believe me .... so many of us understand ... there is an ignore feature that helps but folks just keep quoting him sometimes so you still end up seeing what he says anyway

The fact that you think I'm the asshole on the first one says enough about you. You don't think it's the guy posting a political dig on a non political board. That's you bud.

ETA: It looks like you don't like when I'm telling someone they're being obtuse and a jackass. Ironic, innit?

There's this thing about Mississippi people. They don't know their being an asshole unless you tell them. It's fun that you do seem to get this concept, which I respect. We just differ on who the assholes are. (And before you give me there are assholes everywhere I go speech, there actually aren't. I left Mississippi for a job and found that out. Have you stepped outside the echo humidity chamber that is the Sip?)

Here we see the wild and rare part fish part dawg explaining how it protects its fragile state of mind by eliminating any chance of a reasonable thought by maintaining its well crafted echo chamber. Exciting stuff, folks.

Sorry, the only time we get a ring is when a Bucknor gifts it to us.

I get you, but there's no need for me to use the ignore function. Nothing he says bothers me. It's of no consequence and holds zero weight. It's generally nothing but a little fluff built around parroting some buzz words or phrases that he thinks makes him sound intelligent and/or above the people he imagines himself to be talking down too. I probably should've used more tact, but I was just trying to help him see how he comes off. I'll count it as a fruitless endeavor on my part and move on. My conversation with him is over.

Word of Michael Harris extension coming out...

Harris is official

[KOdawg1]

Braves on an 8 game winning streak. Division lead down to 3.5 games.

[trob115]

Time to extend Soroka next.

[Commercecomet24]

Harris is official

Looks like a smart move by both parties. Kids a player!

Need to at very least split the next 2 against Scherzer and Degrom

I mean if Cookie and Walker are out for a while then the Braves don't need much more to move the needle as long as they can survive their west coast swing and don't get steamrolled by the Phillies in those series.

deGrom about guaranteed to get hurt on that mound. Been waiting for injuries to fully take over the Mets like usual. Annoying. Bats have been dead for the past week against our rivals best pitching. Somehow 2-3 in this 5 game stretch of 4 games with 1 or less runs.

Mets are gonna drop likely 2 of 4 vs. Phils since we're saving deGrom and scherzer for the yanks. Can it be September already? I'm ready for this last tough stretch to be over. Give me 15 in a row against the Nats, Pirates, Cubs, Marlins.

Tough break losing 2 starters 2 nights in a row. Bucks gotta be thinking what can happen next.

Would I be an asshole if I pointed out that you aren't able to use (there/their/they're) correctly in a sentence?

I'm from Mississippi and I take exception to you insulting us educated Mississippi folks.

Meh. Go for it. I've tried to fix that typing error for years and it just ain't work. It gets the point across when reading so ����*♂️. Grammar nazi-ing text is for 10th grade english teachers.

Literally had to have rain try to prevent another starter from going more than 2 innings.

Also not to overreact but Brett Baty is statistically the best hitting 3rd basemen in NY history.

[Commercecomet24]

Looks like the Braves ain't quite ready to hand it over to the Mets just yet.
