There are a lot of former Braves on that list. And of note, each of those former Braves were either traded away or not re-signed when they were playing some of their best baseball. Is this a case of a team taking advantage of a player’s bad behavior and then dumping them before the team became "dirty"? One really has to wonder about that. Something is definitely going on in the Braves’ vaunted farm system to have so many home-grown guys wind up in the Mitchell Report. I have to say, of all those names the only shocker to me is David Justice. As a fan of the Braves, I have been baffled for years why they let him go. He was as popular as Chipper Jones when he left the team and his departure really signaled the end of the Braves’ dominance of the NL.

Are you SURE you want to stay on the Global Warming Bandwagon?
December 12th, 2007
After years of the media’s incessant cries of global warming, the over-hyping of Al Gore’s scientifically bankrupt “documentary”, and the ignoring of scientists who speak the truth we finally are starting to see public acknowledgement that the climate models used by the environmentalist activists are fundamentally flawed and don’t even work when applied HISTORICALLY, much less for predicting the future. |
