It's sooooo fun to read about the way the Br*ves have NOT won the division for the first time since 1994!!! Jim Baker's ESPN pg 2 article is gently mocking, not really mocking enough, but fun to read anyway as it implies that a deal with Satan allowed the Br*ves to go on their run of sucess.Their 11 year run of division titles is OVER as of now. I could write up a nice postmortem, and stay classy. But to honor the team of John Rocker, the team that's fans still mock Native Americans with their tasteless and unoriginal "Injun war chant," I want to be just as classy as the team deserves.
In 1999 before facing the Mets in the NLCS, noted philanderer Chip Jones once said that upon being eliminated, the Mets fans could go put their Yankees gear on. So, to paraphrase Chip, "when it gets to postseason time, Br*ves fans can now go home and bang their sisters or cousins or livestock or whatever they're used to."
Bobby Cox's wife better hide the booze, because Bobby is going to be around a lot more this October (though not much more, since the Br*ves are usually eliminated pretty quickly), and as everyone knows from the 1995 incident, Bobby like to beat his wife.
In conclusion, sniff the glove Br*ves fans, if there are still any of you left.
PS. F** you, Brian Jordan!!
