What is going on with Frenchy and the AJC? Is he calling them every day and begging to be covered? Yesterday they posted a belated feature on his November honeymoon, and today we get this delightful peek into the world that is Frenchy: Movies Frenchy has watched recently. No, really. I love the Harry Potter… Continue reading Newsflash: Frenchy Rented A Movie

Historic Quote of the Day
From the Bowman Chronicles, of course. Circa March ’07: Still, Francoeur showed absolutely no sense of jealousy or animosity when he came through the clubhouse doors at Disney’s Wide World of Sports Complex on Thursday morning. All seemed normal. As usual, the 23-year-old right fielder was wearing a bright smile and walking alongside McCann. I… Continue reading Historic Quote of the Day
And the Offseason Rolls On . . .
So Andruw ended up in L.A. (and we thought he wrecked havoc here in little old Buckhead . . . just wait!), Cormier was released, and the Braves are building a section behind home plate for the Scrooge McDucks of Atlanta baseball fandom. It’s always nice to have some news in the offseason, and to… Continue reading And the Offseason Rolls On . . .
Another Weird Season Bites the Dust
Jesus, what a game. It was truly the kind of thing only that Lynchian joke of a ballpark in Houston could deliver. Skip made it 100% enjoyable — I barely noticed that the regular starters who hadn’t already boarded the charter sucked on a comical level — and I’m really, really glad I recorded his… Continue reading Another Weird Season Bites the Dust
Awwww . . .
Now that was just downright heartwarming. Way to go, Huddy (and Heap).
WORK
I just wanted to apologize quickly for being so quiet on here and on Talking Chop lately. I just got a new job, and I have yet to work out how I’ll do anything other than commute, work, eat and sleep. I’ll figure it out eventually, then I’ll get back to the business of posting… Continue reading WORK
Behold The Power of Little Edgar
Yeah, I’m posting this every day until we lose: It could be the power of the Nationals (or lack thereof) that is allowing us to win, but weren’t they on a five game winning streak before they came to Atlanta? Haven’t they been getting more press cred than the Braves all year, for outshining expectations?… Continue reading Behold The Power of Little Edgar
It Worked Yesterday . . .
Again, a picture of Rent and his goldfish: Help us, Little Edgar. You’re our only hope! Great — though bizarre — game last night. Watching Smoltzie pitch like that is a blast, even though he didn’t get the no hitter. How strange was that incident with the security guard, though? And how about the look… Continue reading It Worked Yesterday . . .
A List Of Things I’m Mad About, Followed By A Hiatus
I’m going on a little mini-vacation starting tomorrow and won’t be back online until Labor Day evening at the earliest. We’re actually going to be downtown all weekend, and we’re going to the Mets games on Friday and Saturday, but we’re staying in a hotel that charges like twenty bucks a day for internet access,… Continue reading A List Of Things I’m Mad About, Followed By A Hiatus
“Heap(s)!”
I don’t even know where to begin. This is like the Davies “Heap and Frenchy were snobby when I sucked!” retrospective times a thousand. Daniel, when I said you’d made my morning by sending me this link, I really meant you’d made my week. I never even knew the whole backstory about Heap’s older brother… Continue reading “Heap(s)!”
