Bah, baseball is boring...

Let's go Cards!  

No team does opening day ceremonies like the Cardinals.  The clydesdales , the Hall of Famers, The World Series Trophies,  it is really something.

Sure they're fancy but they don't have Bobby Cox

Ok so y'all had Stan The Man and St young. We have Chipper Jones as well as the the best pitching trio of the 90's Tom Glavine, Greg Maddux,  and the best John Smoltz. Plus the all time record holder for ejections, Bobby Cox.

Interesting fact about the Atlanta Braves from the Sporting News:

 

"The familiar refrain about the 1990s Braves teams is that, despite eight straight postseason berths and five pennants in the decade, they only captured one World Series championship.

For many fans and observers, it seems to defy odds that a team that spent much of the decade with three Hall of Fame starters, a Hall of Fame manager and a future Hall of Fame third baseman could underachieve so consistently."

 

Let's go Cards!

My comment wasn't about a baseball team. I was referencing the Philadelphia Flyers (the Hockey Team). And back to the mighty raptor once again.
