I thought I heard the Braves trading away all of their good talent again because their owners don't care enough about baseball and only want to make money.

I'd say Hank is a thousand time better owner than Liberty Media.

When the Braves were in their prime they did it with a 3rd of the Yankees payroll. Will do it this year with a 1/4 of it....Keep em coming boy wonder..

Yeah Atlanta never won their division but twice in a row...

But, you better not try to explain the Mitchell report to me because I obviously know nothing about the game. All I know is that everyone on that Yankee team is a bunch of overpaid junkies.

You mean Pettitte and Giambi? Because those are the only ones on the team mentioned in the Mitchell report.

Did the Yankees make the playoffs from 1982-1994?

When the Yankees were in their prime, they were doing it with a 3rd of their current payroll. They also beat the Braves twice in the series, once when the Braves had David Justice who was named in the Mitchell report.

I'd like to think you know what you're talking about, but it's obvious you don't.

Do the Braves have 27 championships? We can do this all day and I will win.

Really, I could have sworn that the Yankees had more than that on the report.

In case you didnt know these name were on the list, these infractions occurred while wearing pin stripes.

Kevin Brown, Ricky Bones, Roger Clemons, Jose Canseco, Jason Grimsley, Darren Thomas, David Justice, Chuck Knoblauch, Hal Morris and Randy Velarde....

The lone Brave was

Todd Pratt...

To bad that Justice was on the Mitchell report for his time with the beloved Bronx juicers....Just so happens I printed a copy off at my desk the other day...
