Carry On My Heyward Son has been absolutely on fire and deserves to be the ROY. Statistically he is not above Buster Posey but that is not the point. He played a majority of the time hurt and it was pretty evident that it was affecting his swing. Heyward plays and has been a MAJOR contributor to the team with the best record in the NL. I know i crap on the Braves alot but that is just how I am. When I see a team that has a real chance to do something year start to let it slip it gets me going. If we can finish this year out strong I think we could make some real noise come playoff time.
Freddie "Marvin" Freeman made his ML debut last night for the Braves. For over a month now Freeman has been crushing the ball down in AAA while Troy Glaus couldnt hit a beach ball. Why they waited all this time to bring him up is beyond me. To each their own i guess. Now that he is hear I think that he could be a very big part of our postseason success. He is a young kid (21) who has had great success everywhere he has been. he has serious power and that is something that is a real asset to have coming off the bench in pinch hit situations.
I dont want to ramble on and on about football but something that is really chapping my ass is all this Boise State nonsense. Did you know over the last 5 years Boise is 7-8 against BCS conferences? They play 2, count them 2 tough games all year. The first being against VT where they have had an entire offseason to prepare. They then play a bunch of patty cakes patty cake bakers man after that until they play, wait for it, wait for it, waiiiitttt for it, Oregon State! Real world beaters they are. All I knw is if they played any schedule in the SEC its a gauranteed 2 losses. The grind it takes to win on ther road in the SEC and then have to come home and play someone like Alabama, Georgia, LSU or Florida is incredible. A part of me hopes they make it the national title game and play Alabama so they can get thrashed and all this BS will stop.
