Disgusted-
No worries. Yeah, It’s just the name stealers and the disgusting insulters that get reported. General Stupid typically gets ignored

Also, since so many people have reported him, I can’t imagine you can say with certainty that it was VJ that got him banned.

VJ got banned? I mean, talking about William & Mary football shouldn’t get you banned. Maybe, suspended, but not banned.

I don’t concern myself too much with what people say to VJ- he can handle himself- but of course I will defend him. As for some of the insulting comments regarding women, again, why should I ignore comments like that?

Hanson labored through 5 innings today….meaning that the bullpen will be taxed for at least 4 innings today (assuming we dont go into extra innings). I dont see how giving up 4 runs in 5 innings is anywhere close to being “good” today.
We’re talking about Tommy Hanson here.
2 ER in 5 IP, with only 1 BB is actually good, for him at least.

Tomahawk Mafia

Heyward was fooled pretty bad 3-1. That was the key pitch in the at bat. If he has a patient mindset in that situation and recognizes the breaking ball, the Braves have the bases loaded. More frustration with runners in scoring position, especially after the leadoff man reached.

VJ is not out to harm anyone. What I am witnessing herein seems to be some playful jabs supporting the ousted parties who, in all honesty, need to approach the proper protocol for reinstatement. The fact that you all appear to possess a vendetta suggests your disposed friend(s) are not ready to contribute favorably to future blog activity.

You think the Nationals don’t get one run in that situation?
Not to recuse our bullpen but an 89 win team in the middle of September doesn’t come away empty handed with that opportunity.
You could either take a slim lead or put the game away.
The Braves got nothing.
Inexcusable.
