spring Training baseball does NOT matter

Spring training is a "can't lose" situation. If your team wins, then it won. If your team loses, then it was only a meaningless spring training game. 😀

So QT, you a Braves fan?

I am, and I'm afraid it's going to be a long sad baseball season in Hotlanta 😀

This post is funny to me Limey, one because you are my good friend, and two because it is spring training. Bash the Braves all you want, I dont care. Good friends are what matters most, not wins and losses of baseball teams. I remind you, everyone predicted Atlanta's demise last year, and they won 101 games. We will see what happens, but whatever does, I will just enjoy the season, and realize that there are things more important than baseball, like family, good friends, and my online pals like you here at TMF. See ya, pal.

There some things more important than baseball, but not many. 😀

I agree Milagros, but I wasnt going to fight with my friend Lime over something as trivial as a baseball game, and a spring training one nonetheless. The real season starts for me two weeks from Tuesday with my favorite of all matchups, Braves vs Mets. I dont recall if I posted on here that Iam originally from New York, so I have seen many Mets- Braves games over the years, as the Mets are sort of my archrival team , whether the two teams are both contenders, or in last. I look forward to 19 enjoyable games between the two teams in 2004. Bring on the regular season! I cant wait.

Shit, it's the middle of March, and Mitch is already spiced up!
Me, I went down to watch the demolition of the Vet. Drove down to a Kinney park down on Walnut, and took the Subway down. I knew it wouldn't bother me, since the Phillies have been doing their own demolition of the place for years, but man, I've seen SO many games in that place! My most hilarious moment came during Juan Samuel's rookie year. He was playing second, and he took a Tommy Herr line drive right in the nuts! Juan Samuel was at best a clueless beast, but the Mets thought he'd be perfect in Center, displacing both Len Dykstra AND Mookie Wilson! It was always a comfort that the Phillies weren't the only team making stupid trades.
Mitch, you also should know by now that in baseball nothing's a sure thing. Would the Braves heading the pack by six or eight and a half in the middle of June REALLY surprise you? No. It wouldn't really surprise me, either, to see the Yankees struggling to find the right chemistry at that time, and Boston's pitching holding them way ahead (how strange does THAT sound?). You never know.
