The Atlanta Braves Thread (Terry Pendleton Edition)

[Scotty's Flat Top]

Any idea where the bus was from?

Somewhere in NC.

Obviously, there's more to stealing bases than being fast, but he's faster than Uggla.

Are you on somethin'?:loco:

Dude Uggla lead the NL in infield hits 2 years ago. He moves quite well. He isn't a blazer, but he isn't slow.

Yeah it was a bunch of senior citizens heading to Gatlinburg.

Just turned on the news here in Knoxville and it looks even worse than the picture you posted earlier. One of the worst looking interstate wrecks I've ever seen. According to WBIR they've already confirmed at least 6 fatalities

He has used his wheels to stretch out 3 career doubles.

Hard to stretch anything into a double when you can't hit the ball past the pitchers mound.

Somewhere in NC.

That's crazy. I wonder if the driver had a heart attack or something.

 

[TBrown]

C'mon verc.. You know better than to hassle the hines

The news says apparently the bus blew a tire and crossed the median at which point it hit an oncoming SUV and a tractor trailer, causing the tractor trailer to catch fire.

Kind of grainy because it's just a picture I took of my TV, but here's the view they're showing on the news from the chopper.

Wow, that is horrible. The bus looks like a pancake.

 

[Regulator]

The bus was from a church in Statesville, NC. At least 10 injured patients transported by ground, 3 patients were flown, and at least 6 fatalities.

 

[bleedorange0037]

The 5:00 news just started and the update is that 6 people from the bus have been confirmed dead, one from the SUV and one from the tractor trailer. Several others have been or are being transported to UT Medical Center.

Josh Freeman-Tampa Bay Buccaneers mess has no good ending for either side | The MMQB with Peter King

New hat

Kenny Loften talking braves on atl radio.

Umps favor braves in 95 series.
Braves clubhouse was "morgue"

The Braves' clubhouse was probably just depressed because they traded Dave Justice and Jermaine Dye for a guy who moped, stayed hurt, and got thrown out stealing all the time.

Wasn't it Justice and Grissom? Dye went to KC for Keith Lockhart and Michael Tucker.

Ah yes. That's right. So much WTF that week that it all ran together in my mind.

I hate being a Bucs fan right now

I'll never understand why they traded Dye. To make matters worse, they got little to nothing in return.

 

[Mr_Henley]

I've been critical of Uggla as any, but I want him at the very least coming off the bench vs costanza. I too thought Garcia was a "eat some innings for us after we locked it up" guy. This is not a good start to a potentially good playoff run.

Donte Whitner legally changed his name to Donte Hitner lol
