No one can stop us in 2017!

Yeah, you're definitely looking at some rebuilding. Hart has a good track record of talent evaluation and the Braves always have money to spend, so they should not be down long.

Opening day win feels good.

**** the Braves and their fair weather fans.

No one who watches or shows up this year is a fair weather fan

I didn't think it was possible for ATL to have down years. Always seemed to be good and on the cusp. A first for everything, I guess. Maybe because I almost forgot about them is a good reason they are on the down slope.

I'd bet 90% of current Braves fans have no idea who Dale Murphy, Bob Horner, Ken Oberkfell, Glenn Hubbard, and Bruce Benedict are. They couldn't name 5 players from the 80's when they sucked.

I remember those guys and was never a Brave fan. How can any respectable baseball or Brave fan not know Dale Murphy? That would be the test, hook. lol "Who? Nevermind."

You forgot Rafael Ramirez, Pascual Perez, Terry Pendleton.....
