I would tape their games to hear my friends and I scream and yell.

Then a couple years later, everyone else and their mother started to show up at ole Fulton County Stadium. Ruined all the fun. :(

Maybe they are just pulling their data from Fox Sports programming since they cater to regions. :)

I think I’d push the Braves all the way to the NC coast, expand the Orioles (they were always the second team in NC after the Braves), and reduce the Nationals. The Nat’s are too new to really wield any kind of influence outside of DC and tidewater VA.

Still gave me hives, though. ;) In fairness, it was a good time especially given how hot and crowded downtown was that weekend. Normally the town’s not so hectic because everyone’s gone to the beach.
