These were my words just a few short weeks ago. Before the Braves went on their current streak and made a liar out of me. And a liar I'll happily be, if it means I get to watch my team in the heat of a playoff battle.
All seemed lost when the Braves got embarrassed by the Reds, and fell to something like 8 games back. That was before we found the hot hand, and started getting some clutch hits to support our awesome pitching. Now they're just 2 games back with 6 to play. We're facing the Marlins for 2 more then the Nationals for 4, all at home. The Rockies have the Brewers at home for 3, then go to the division-leading Dodgers for 3 more.
I only wish I could make it to a few games this week. Every fan has an excuse, and those combined excuses manifest themselves in a sea of empty blue seats every night at the Ted. The team notices, as you've heard from Chipper's remarks the past few days. My excuse is I'm working day and night to rebuild by flooded first floor, but I'm going to do everything I can to make it out there. You do the same.
Go Bravos!
