Well it's an opinion that I'm sure most people would agree with considering our record in a tougher division is good enough for a share of first place.

I wasn't posting here two years ago.

Not that I was bitching, though. Just making an observation and wishing the Braves were in the Central.

The Central is always the worst division in baseball, Braves fans are just bitter they let Maddux and Glavine go. Pair those two with Smoltz, Hudson, and James and the Braves are in first place in the East

Just for clarification, would that be the Central that in the previous three years has produced a World Series champ, all three NL pennant winners, two of the three NL wildcards, and a 105-win team?

Just for clarification pal, Nowhere in my statement did I say the Central didn't have the best team....from top to bottom though, its hard to argue there aren't worse divisions.

I got over losing Maddux and Glavine a long time ago. But you're right. Put two Hall of Fame pitchers on any pitching staff and they do get better. Good call.

every division goes through years where it just plain sucks... a couple of years ago it was the AL central and nl west... now it's the nl central... next will be who knows what? next year a team from the nl central might be complaining that they're not in the nl east or west cuz they have a better record... that's just how baseball is

Right, but not all teams had all three. so enjoy third place.

I will. Enjoy your first division title in about 12 years.

BTW, did you share "livestrong's" cheerios? Is everyone making fun of your lack of baseball knowledge finally getting to you?

You were funny enough with me thinking you were a Red Sox fan. Now you're a Celtics/Yankees fan? Wow, you lose the right to talk trash to anyone. I bet you're the biggest Patriots fan, though.

How hilarious would it be for the Cards to blow by the Cubs and Brewers at the last second? After all the trash talk exchanged between Chicago and Milwaukee for NL Central supremacy. Make it happen.

There is this place in the US called Connecticut, right between New York and Boston...thats where I live. Look at what you've been rooting for the last 5 years....a basketball team who would lose 60 games a year, a baseball team who can't draw despite winning a division for 54 straight years, and a dog fighting, gambling loving quarterback....I think I still have that right.
