Instead of starting off the year undefeated at 3-0, The Braves showed Atlanta that they are the choke jobs of the last four years. Will it ever end? The Atlanta Braves are reminiscent of Chan Gailey's tenure at Georgia Tech. They'd win games they should have lost, but countered the euphoria of these events with horrific fluke jobs, losing to Duke, a terrible UNC, and a terrible Wake Forest in 2002. It's like an incurable plague. Last edited on Thu Apr 9th, 2009 09:14 am by ekreb |

Driving down to Tech football practice I heard the Braves had a big lead, couple hours later on the way home I heard they had pissed it away by the bullpen walking a bunch of guys ... Sounds too familiar.

Same old Braves!!! Can not hold a lead with the bull pen. I have a question. If the game is on the line in the 7th or 8th inning why not bring in the closer then instead of waiting until the 9th. Now I know some folks are going to say you have to save your closer until the 9th but if you know beyond a shadow of a doubt that the game will be lost in the 7th or 8th why wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Walking numerous guys with the bases loaded is what happens to a bad High School team. That's just inexcusable for someone in the Show......

I still think that we are weak in bullpen reguardless of what the GM and others think.When you blow a lead like we had in Philly,its a sign something is wrong.If nothing else it messes with your mind.I think starters are okay but see no closer inthe pen.

Beginning to wonder if they are ever going to win a game again!
