And that is why TFG felt secure going there.

MLB lost me after the McGuire/Sosa/Palmeiro/A-Rod/Clemens era. Too many players cheating on PED's. But the Braves were my team, so this is welcomed.
Hope they can stay competitive for a few years.

I'm glad Atlanta won. Not only for #44 but for baseball. I have no issues with Dusty Baker but he was, in my opinion, brought in as window dressing to try and erase the teams legacy of cheating.

Funny we just went through this with Sean Connery in the In Memoriam thread...but I was going to ask why so many mentions of Hank Aaron specifically this year and not 90...whatever other year they won....but I had forgotten he passed earlier this year.

I think this goes back to you not watching since the Wild Card games to some extent. Surely seeing the 44 etched in the Braves outfield game after game would've jogged your memory.

The 1995 team, the last year they won, got a lot of mention as well. More I'd say, it just wasn't a tribute to them.

Game 6 was the first and only Braves game I saw all year. So didn’t see the Braves field at all this year

Here you go, for anyone that missed it.

Have to assume it was just me Thanks.

Oh I don't think so. Ratings were not great for MLB, so I'd guess a few around here didn't tune in for a single game and didn't know about it or get to see it.

This is likely the trip to the official parade route, but I still haven't seen one going this fast ever. Those people were waiting for hours!

^^ Not that it wasn't before, but officially a joke. Ortiz juiced for years and years and everyone knows it, but you let him in and not Bonds, the best player most anybody ever saw well before he was juicing? The Baseball Writers need to get over themselves, they're gonna get mocked for this one til the end of time.
