Chipper Jones Goes Yard!! |
The Atlanta Braves are one of the most storied
franchises in the history of professional sports. A story filled with a few
victories, a lot of near misses and far too much heartache. Simply put, the
life of the Braves fan is a frustrating one.
As the years have passed, and we are further
removed from the glory days of the early to mid-90’s, true Braves fans are
becoming hard to find. The Ted has nowhere near the same level of excitement
and energy as it used to. While we no longer have The “Crime Dog” Fred McGriff,
Maddux, Smoltz, or Glavine, we do have several young stars with an abundance of
talent on display every night.
For the Braves to return to their winning ways
they will need more than solid pitching and a potent offense; They will also
need a fan base willing to support them through thick and thin. Forbes Magazine
rated Atlanta as the most ‘Miserable Sports City’ in America. Geographically, ‘Braves Country’ is the
largest sports market in America, encompassing almost the entire southeastern
portion of the country. However, the fan
base is composed largely of fair weather and half-hearted fans.
For the Braves to return to prominence, they
will need our support! With that being said, we will be sending a group of
Westmar residents to the Ted to cheer on the home team.
